About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Romantic
  • Innovative
The Marais is reborn in Chelsea at Le Singe Vert, courtesy of the brass coat racks, long wooden bar, distressed mirrors and wicker chairs – all antiques owner Georges Forgeois sourced personally from his travels in France and North Africa.

In addition to the allure of the authentic surroundings, Le Singe Vert boasts a unique duality as both an energetic bistro and romantic hideaway treasured by a variety of guests: Singles grabbing a bite before a night on the town, families relishing a three-course meal and enamored couples enjoying a quiet evening in a secluded corner.

The menu of classic bistro fare appeals to this eclectic crowd, beginning with enticing offerings from the raw bar, to the outstanding steak frites, and of course the decadent chilled pot au chocolat for dessert. Although always festive, “Le Singe” is truly the place to be on holidays, especially for its legendary parties on Halloween, Valentine’s Day and Gay Pride.

    Discovered Le Singe by accident about six years ago. I and a few of my friends have been addicted to the food, the ambiance, the attentive waitstaff and delicious bartenders!

    I think the waiter forgot about us for a while. Also the runner brought food to the table that wasn’t ours. As always I tipped over 20% but the waiter wasn’t attentive. The food was great as usual. The meat was overcooked (asked for rare and it was barely pink) but the taste was there. I think the temp was more of a waiter issue or it sat under the heat lamp too long.

    Although we arrived a few minutes early for our reservation, the hostess “greeted” us by advising us That there were a lot of reservations, and that we would have to vacate our table in an hour and a half. I consider this a very inhospitable way to treat your dinner guests. The restaurant needs to be in control of its timing, and should make its reservations accordingly. As it turns out, there was more than enough time, because the restaurant’s service was prompt. There was no need to make us feel during the entire dinner that we needed to be in a rush. In the future I will give my business to the multiple number of restaurants in New York City that know how to make their guests feel at home

    There was a slight mix up at the beginning of the evening. The host sat me at a table while my blind date who arrived ten minutes earlier than I had been place at another table. My date had stated the reservation was under my name so I’m not sure the reason it happened. My date texted me and thankfully I hadn’t turned my cell phone to silent yet. Also once I sat with my date it took a while before I received a menu. The waitress and the food more than made up for the mix up with the host. It was my first time there and I will definitely return for dinner again.

    Le Singe is a true find. On our first visit, we were so impressed by the food and the authentic French ambiance. Certainly a gem for a cold winter night. The lobster bisque soup was the best that I have had. We will become ‘regulars’ as this has become one of our favorite restaurants.
