This was our third visit and we still find both the food and service to be excellent. The house white wine was an exceptional value. I will mention that the portion sizes are very reasonable but not huge. What I would call "human sized."

I wanted to try La Sirene for very long time and finally had a chance to visit during Restaurant Week. There were so many items I wanted to try but I had foie gras and steak tartare for my choice. Food and service was excellent and the portions were larger than expected. The side veggies were so yummy too! I ended up taking some home as well as the dessert that came with the course. Had great time there and will visit again!

We LOVE La Sirene! We’ve been going since they first opened, would only accept cash and didn’t have a liquor license. Food is unique and amazing. Service was great As usual, my wife couldn’t resist and had the goat cheese tart as an appetizer and then couldn’t finish the rabbit entree, so she had to skip dessert. I had the mini-ravioli (by far my fave on the entire menu) and the fillet with foil gras. If NYC wasn’t 40 miles away (which is 2hrs by car each way) we’d fine there weekly. My only minor complaint is that it was a little warm in the restaurant. The overhead a/c units either need to be turned on, turned up, or replaced. We eat out regularly - 3-4 times a week, and are world travelers. This is our favorite restaurant by far and one we visit for special occasions. Highly recommended.

From the first time eating there back when it was still a whole in the wall and finally having a chance to go back again, I will say the food taste just as great as when it first opened. Didier's a master at his craft. Everything from the foie gras, ravioles, duck breast and hanger steak entrees made with perfection...love this place!

La Sirene is a relaxed and friendly place to eat. Our waitress was wonderful. My only complaint was about the entree: I ordered the sliced duck breast medium rare, but it was served to me medium—just slightly pink—and this was a disappointment. Other than that, the meal was wonderful.

I had a lovely dinner with wine . Kinda strange to find as address and signage was not easy to see with trees. The Escargo and rabbit were lovely. However a French restaurant without crème brûlée or chocolate moose for dessert was a little sad on my end. But I did suffer nicely through a lovely chocolate soufflé

An unapologetic chef has curated a fantastic menu at this restaurant. My party of 5 enjoyed every bite. Tasty appetizers, excellent lamb and duck servings, and yummy desserts, paired with a good wine selection. The service team was excellent too. We will be back! If you like foie gras, try it here! The seared option was phenomenal. The lamb is a winner of an entree. Highly recommend.

The food was delicious, especially the escagargot and filet mignon, and the atmosphere is very nice. It's a small, intimate café (SoHo location) with a romantic feel. But it is expensive and the portions seem a bit small for the price. The house wines were good but overpriced.

My husband and I are from Boston and wanted to do something different with our anniversary and decided to head to NYC for the night. As French is my favorite cuisine we chose this restaurant based on the menu and the fact that we could bring our own wine! The restaurant was small but the spacing between tables didn't make it feel small! Our servers were very informatavite and pleasant. As for the meal, we chose 3 apps and 2 dinners (we had noticed that the dishes were a decent size but not huge, so we wanted to try different things). We started with Seared Foie Gras and Escargot and both were outstanding! We followed with mussels and chose though French Caribbean style, although I think I would have liked the curry better. The mussels were good, but out of all the things, our least favorite. For dinner my husband chose the hanger steak and I had the filet with foie gras and truffle sauce and OMG were they both amazing! We decided not to get a dessert because we were full but they brought us complimentary profiteroles with a sugar glaze and cream stuffing and I dream about these now, they were outstanding and I'm not a sweets person. For the corking fee, the website said $10 but because it was a weekend it was $20, which was still fine but should have been clearer. The food was rich and decedent and I would definitely recommend this restaurant for anyone wanting a quality French meal.

Pretty expensive for the quality and quantity (the meat was enough but sides were very small). They do not take credit card, only cash and Amex. Service was also slow although there were not many customers. On the positive side, music was good (French) and staff was friendly. Overall, not great value for the money spent. There are better value French restaurants in this city.

We decided on a French restaurant near our hotel in SOHO because it was my son-in-law’s birthday. He’s from France and La Sirene with its many great reviews seemed like it might make a good fit. We were very pleased that they had space to take us a little earlier than our reservation and placed us in a cozy area where my baby granddaughter wouldn’t be a distraction. The food was all very good, especially the Cassoulet Toulouse style. It was flavored perfectly with a broth that did not disappoint. The rack of lamb was tender and juicy and the hangar steak was perfect! All in all, a wonderful experience in NYC.
