Le Midi Bar Restaurant

I've gone to le midi many times over the years but have never written a review. It's a nice place to go for happy hour especially with a group. You can drink and enjoy the fries or a burger before heading downstairs. The karaoke cave is in the basement and you can basically take it over if you go in a group! We went for brunch and... We ordered the French onion soup to start. The soup tastes good but doesn't need the parsley. Perhaps they were looking to add flavor but it was the wrong flavor note to enhance as parsley has an overwhelmingly strong taste. It's not a parsley soup it's an onion soup with cheese. Otherwise it is a good soup with lots of cheese and bread. French toast was good. Nothing crazy but tasty all the same. Zucchini and potato cake (new menu item) The poached eggs really brought the flavors in the ratatouille together The potato was cooked nicely and added a needed crunchy texture to the dish. Crème brûlée- could have been a little bit hotter but the strawberry was a lovely addition, tasted really good. Friendly workers. They changed our seating to a warmer corner and even brought over a heater to ensure we were warm throughout the meal. Our server wasn't overwhelming but made sure to check in at the right times! The restaurant was a bit empty so a reservation on a Saturday isn't necessary I would definitely come here for brunch again.

Came here on a Friday evening at 8:30pm. We ordered: French onion soup Duck confit salad Duck breast Pomme Frites Wine I checked in on Yelp and managed to get a mimosa for $5! It was great. The food tastes really good and the ingredients are fresh. We collectively agreed that this restaurant is worth coming back to. The vibe is sort of fancy, you would feel off coming here in the evening in shorts and a t shirt. It would definitely be a nice date spot.

Love this place! I stumbled in here on a Saturday when I was looking for weekend happy hours in the area and I couldn't be happier that I did! We sat at the bar and enjoyed the $6 wine specials and the $1 oysters while catching a few scenes of the old movie playing on the projector. My boyfriend and I really loved this place and the overall vibe and wanted to come back. Fast forward a month and we moved two blocks away and returned the day we moved to unwind. This time we added food to the happy hour wine and oysters. We ordered the Kobe beef sliders to start and then for entrees I had the Le Midi salad (added chicken) and my boyfriend ordered the Diver scallops shrimp risotto. Everything was great! They also give you delicious warm bread which I cannot turn down. The bartender and other staff are extremely friendly and give off a welcoming, neighborhood bar vibe while still maintaining a nice, classy atmosphere. Overall I would definitely recommend Le Midi for happy hour and dinner for pretty much any occasion.

A great place to stop in for mimosas on a hot Saturday. Nice ambiance, neither fancy nor basic. The $5 mimosas were made with fresh-squeezed OJ and a welcome relief from NYC heat. After two of them, we decided to have brunch. The food was all very good (Frisée aux Lardons, Omelette, Salade Niçoise) the service was great. Overall, a great find for a small-ish quality French place not far from Washington Square Park.

My husband and I decided to meet up with our friend here for dinner after work on a Friday. I was the first one arrived. The host seated me right the way, which was not very common in NYC. Normally, you have to wait for everyone then the whole party would be seated. And then the waitress stopped by asked me if I wanted anything. I got water. She showed me the Happy Hour menu. I told her that I didn't drink. She said there were $1 oysters, which I end up getting a dozen of them. They were not bad. Since it was before 6:30, we were able to order from Prix fixe early dinner menu, which a three course meal for $26. I got soup du jour (creamy cauliflower soup), sea bass, and creme caramel. My husband got the french onion soup, croq au vin and the same dessert. My friend got the same items as me except the sea bass. Instead, he got the mushroom risotto. I really liked the soup and creme caramel. The sea bass looked and tasted like flounder to me, which were a few thinly filleted. I had never seen filleted sea bass before. They were normally cooked in chunks. It tasted pretty good, though. Creme caramel tasted a little bitter, which my husband and friend weren't a fan of. All staffs were very nice and friendly, overall.
