Benoit New York - Broad Channel

I just entered to have lunch as of right now and the bartender told me they don’t serve lunch anymore only the bar food and drinks which I was fine with. I sat down at the bar I ordered food and a glass of sparkling wine which it came Less than half glass. I asked the bartender how come I get half glass and he told me that’s how they serve and if I want a full glass. I have to pay two glasses. The bartender was super careless and very dismissive and I told him that I’ve been several times here and I know as well Paul, the bar manager and I never received this kind of poor service. I told him that I don’t want anymore and I will leave and he told me OK. Have a nice day. This is really unacceptable for a client that came more than 20 times here and that was my last time.

Haven't been here in awhile. Emails, French Olympic (TV in bar! , why not? Food great, still much consistently pleasing old-timer. Best French fries (aka frites in NYC (priced handsomely $12 . Onion soup not so salty (but may have preferred more crusted cheese . Bread butter with B for Benoit! Duck was nice. For $60 as 3 course menu we ordered escargot, steak, creme brulee. Also ordered hors d'oeuvres trio.. deviled egg, rabbit foie gras pate, rillettes... our favorite deviled egg (aka egg mayo . Service attentive. Perhaps excessively. No harm done diligently clearing, but no need to push for ordering more.... charcuterie, another glass of wine, etc. If I compare Benoit with Tin Building. (Lol.. Alain Ducasse vs Jean George .. there are in's and out's. Personal preference is better escargot and less creme brulee. Nearby Boucerie has different vibe... grander open venue vs cozier ambiance B... (I miss Remy!

The reviews were good, and I expected classic French food after looking at the Restaurant Wick menu, but it didn't meet my expectations at all. Won't go back.

English: The truth is, I came with high expectations, and I was left disappointed. Everything was tasteless, very tiny portions, full price menu, I paid $480 for 4 people, and it took a long time to bring the order. I will definitely not be returning. ?? I am writing this the morning after: I am telling you that my son's girlfriend got indigestion and gastritis from the food.

Love the pate, chicken and French fries. They have a restaurant week menu.
