About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
Established in 1937, Le Veau d’Or reopens under neo-bistro extraordinaires, Chefs Riad Nasr and Lee Hanson.

Le Veau d'Or serves a $125 prix-fixe dinner menu Tuesday - Saturday and an $85 prix-fixe lunch menu Tuesday - Friday. We can accommodate up to four people per reservation in our main dining room. Unfortunately, we don't push tables together for larger parties, but our private dining can seat up to 20 guests.

Our bar is available for walk-ins where guests can enjoy lunch, dinner, or just a drink!

Our intimate dining room means we are unable to adjust party sizes once a reservation is confirmed. Decreases in party size will be subject to a fee of $50/seat.

Finally, as a courtesy to other guests, we kindly ask that you book reservation times when you can join us. If you have no intention of joining us at an available reservation time, please allow others the opportunity to book the reservation. Thank you for your consideration.

Why they're an Icon

  • Award icon
    James Beard Award2025

From the OpenTable editors: The James Beard–recognized restaurateurs from Frenchette, Riad Nasr and Lee Hanson, took over one of the oldest French restaurants in New York when they restored and reopened Le Veau d’Or in 2024. Take comfort in the wood-paneled walls, red leather booths, and red-and-white checkered tablecloths, and get ready for a polished prix-fixe menu of pâté en croûte, poached lobster, and île flottante, among others. Catch a nightcap at the cozy bar—it’s a tiny treasure with only five seats.

    This dinner was a sentimental journey. We first ate ar Le VeauDor in the 1960s . Loved it then. We then lived in France for 2 years so it was great to experience wonderful, classic French cooking once again at the reopened restaurant. Loved it. We’ll be back

    Our dinner was absolutely impeccable. Cheers to the kitchen and everyone in the front of the house -- all of whom were extremely attentive and knowledgeable -- for making our evening a special one. We hope to see you again soon!

    The menu is extremely confusing as it’s in French. For example we ordered the fluke. I assumed it was fluke tartare when it was fried fluke and tartare sauce instead. I wouldn’t have ordered it

    Our favorite restaurant in NYC. Unparalleled food & service. Will never not get the duck, gratin au chocolate and the house martini.
