Nice Matin

“Charming, delicious, nice. I first learned about this place when I stayed at the hotel Lucerne, where it’s located. Me and my daughters always had a delicious meal here. And today I stopped by for breakfast - healthy and yummy and cozy. I think it’s worth giving a try. I like spots for breakfasts that are not on the go, but that are offering nice ambiance in addition to the food.”

“Came for lunch and left very happy. Baked goods basket was excellent. Really liked the muffin and croissant. Flaky and warm and fresh. Niçoise salad was very aesthetic, tuna nicely seared and vinegary. The sardines are quite salty here! The pan bagnat was fishu and good. Enjoyed all the flavors in the sandwich. Fries were crisp and perfect. Cappuccino was a bit pricey especially with refills! Also service here was top notch. It’s a small space, but we were seated quickly and taken care of. There’s also coat check!”

“Everything was consistently good from start to finish. The food was well-executed and flavorful, and the tableware was beautiful, which made the whole experience feel thoughtful and refined. The space itself is bright and filled with natural light, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere that really stands out. The chocolate dessert was a highlight, rich, smooth, and perfectly creamy, with a deep chocolate flavor that felt balanced rather than heavy. Special thanks to Andres for the attentive and friendly service. He made the experience even more enjoyable without being intrusive. Would definitely come back.”

“We chose this place for a weekend brunch due to it’s close proximity to the Beacon Theater. We were looking for a casual French bistro. What we got was so much more. Elegant, welcoming, beautifully decorated. The meal more than exceeded our expectations. We loved everything, from the amazing salad down to perfectly crisp frites accompanying the angus hanger steak with peppercorn sauce. Our server Amanda was attentive without being overbearing. Would recommend this place to anyone.”

“Nice UWS breakfast place with some all-American options & where you might catch a morning celebrity sighting like we did. Have done breakfast/brunch here quite a few times. Consistent service, not extremely attentive but good enough. Menu is varied but not extensive, a bit overvalued. Have gotten the burger here too for dinner. Was good, overpriced maybe. Really good eggs Benedict, disappointing French toast ironically. A lot of Italian dishes on the menu strangely. Wouldn’t go out of my way to return, wouldn’t not recommend it either. Make a reservation for peak hours. Weekends tables are hard to get straight away. Mostly families & older patrons. Mostly a meh experience.”
