About this restaurant

Charming
Innovative
Good for special occasions

Francie is a Michelin-starred New York Brasserie with Italian and French influence. Francie is located in a limestone-clad former bank building and has the convivial feel of a neighborhood gathering place. Chef-Owner Chris Cipollone and Pastry Chef Justin Binnie serve a seasonal menu inspired by European flavors and designed for flexibility: bar snacks, shellfish, handmade pastas and the famous Crown Roast of Rohan Duck. Save room for the last remaining cheese cart in NYC. Wines from around the world and classic cocktail list are presented with a flourish of seamless hospitality. Private Dining in The Vault, the former vault from the bank, is a memorable experience. On Mondays we offer 20% off every bottle of wine on our list.

Private party facilities
Elegantly designed to complement the restaurant, our Private Dining Room, "The Vault at Francie," is available for dinner, Monday - Saturday. Discreetly hidden from view, The Vault still feels very much part of the main restaurant and is one of the most beautiful private dining spaces in Brooklyn.

Awesome. We were looking for a restaurant before 4th of July fireworks. We had a great evening. Warm welcome and excellent food, duck specialty and delightful surprise for dessert, canard au citron, surely the best since American pie ; ) referring to the video we found next day. thanks to all and of course to the chefs for this wonderful evening. Highly recommended.

Food is amazing, inventive and worth every dollar you spend to dine here. Waitstaff was solid but not really Michelin level. Noise level was annoying but tolerable.

I've been to many better 1* restaurants and a few worse ones. The service was really poor for a 1*. Food was good if a little unexciting. Cocktails were meh.

The food is really exceptional The service was great and the price is reasonable. However the only issue is the noise level is amazingly high. This restaurant really need an acoustics treatment - even without music the noise level was very very high

Muy buen lugar, las pastas son extraordinarias y el pato genial. Nos tocó sentarnos en el salón de atrás, no me encantó ese salón. La música de fondo creo que podría mejorar.

We’ve had an amazing dinner, thanks to a top notch service. We came to experience Francie with the NYC restaurant week. Dishes were excellent, there was also a dedicated wine by the glass menu, that was very appealing. The only downside is the level of noise. Unfortunately, that has nothing to do with the service or the cuisine but it was exhausting. I want to go back but I’m hesitant because of that. But bravo to the kitchen and the whole staff, excellent!
