We had brunch on Sunday and everything was outstanding. The food is exceptional and truly transports you to Paris. The scallop crudo is a must-try, and the snails and tuna crudo were also delicious. Wonderful service and atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Ah Pastis.. Great spot. Great people watching. Great no pressure service - could have been in France. Good looking bar. Pricey as you would expect for the location but not crazy. A fun time.

Thirdly, everything was super delicious!!! We had a great time and will visit Pastis for dinner soon! Thank you for our wonderful brunch!

We chose a beautiful Sunday morning in rainy New York to go out for brunch with friends, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience. There were six of us, and we were given a lovely round table where it was comfortable to sit and talk. The restaurant was full, yet the hostess greeted us with a smile and kindly showed us to our table, even though two of our friends were running late. That was especially nice, knowing how strict New York restaurants usually are about seating incomplete parties. Each of us ordered something different, and everyone was happy with their choice. I had an omelet with Gruyère — soft, delicate, and absolutely delicious. It came with perfectly roasted potatoes, cooked in a special way that made them extra flavorful. My friends had salmon Benedicts, Norwegian eggs, and croque-madame — everything was excellent. We especially remember the French toast with strawberries and cream — heavenly! And for dessert, we shared profiteroles with ice cream, which were out of this world. The staff kept refilling our coffee and making sure our glasses were never empty. The atmosphere was lively and cheerful, full of people and energy. Even the restroom caught our attention — surrounded by shelves of wine bottles, it felt stylish and unique. We left feeling like part of a fashionable New York crowd — full, happy, and already planning to come back.

Arrived around 2 pm for a late lunch. Had to wait 15 min to get a table outside but the waiting time was spend ordering a delicious drink at the bar. When seated we ordered a Steak sandwich and a Bar steak. It was plenty of food and it tasted delicious. We had to share the profiteroles for dessert and they were also delicious. Location is nice and food great.

Overall, 7/10 from me. Pancakes were delicious- nice and fluffy with a good portion size as well. Coffee bar was solid and service was great. Only issue we had was with the bacon - it was $12 and we only got 3 strips... Definitely would pass on that in the future. Prices outside of that are very reasonable!

Always a reliable go-to with lots of seating outdoors and inside. Easy to get a table and very friendly and fast service! Food is always great, particularly love the steak tartare, fried artichokes, and the fries. Also like the salads verte for freshness to balance the pate champagne. Nice bread and salty butter too.

We went to Pastis while on a family vacation in New York. It was fairly easy to get a reservation, the food and staff were excellent. Our favorite dishes on the menu were the fries and the steak. Also the steak tartare and escargot were amazing. The fish dish we had was OK. I would’ve rather gotten another steak dish instead. We ended up ordering several plates and splitting everything. This was one of my favorite meals we had while on vacation.

The steak was perfectly cooked, the scallops were rich and flavorful, and even the escargot was spot on. But the best was the fried artichoke, super unique and absolutely delicious. The vibe is amazing, buzzing with energy but still comfortable and welcoming. Whether you’re there for a casual lunch or a nice dinner out, it just works. The staff are super attentive without being overbearing, and service runs like clockwork. Definitely one of the top spots I’ve eaten at in NYC.

Pastis is my favorite restaurant in NYC. The food, service and background music are all perfection and the lighting makes everyone look good!

I went here with a friend on Friday morning around 10:15. The vibe and atmosphere was great. My only issue was our server, I believe his name was Gerard, though I can’t be certain as we only saw him twice the whole time we were there. Once to take our purser and then to hand us the bill at the end. From the minute we sat down, it seemed like we were a bother to him. He was extremely short and even after thanking him, we weren’t met with any responses. Not even a smile or a “You’re welcome”. When we were ordering, my friend asked for their opinion on the turkey sausage vs the pork sausage. He huffed and said, “I mean…”. He was obviously annoyed at the question and just shrugged, giving us a blank stare. We tried to give him the benefit of the doubt by acknowledging that it might have been an off day for him, but then we noticed he was beyond chatty and friendly with the table next to us. It was our first time at this location and we were so excited to try it out. Unfortunately, the interaction dampened it. It also felt like a slap in the face to then receive a bill suggesting a 25% tip. Although, of course, we still tipped. Other than that, everything else was perfect. The rest of the staff all had smiles and it seemed as if everyone had a pep in their step. Really nice to see as we both work in the food industry and know how difficult it can be sometimes. The food portions were really generous while still being delicious. We both ordered pancakes and loved how fluffy they were! The cappuccino I had was also very tasty. The prices were fair for everything we ordered. Overall, I’d consider going back.

They opened on Christmas day. Foods are great. I hope sourdough bread could have been toasted. Onion soup was nice, especially in winter. Fresh oyster was a bit disappointed. It is so small for the price. Taste was refreshing. Roast chicken is… chicken… well cook. The sauce was yummy.

Great food and cocktails. Portions are truly American in size rather than French. Even the size of the starters was quite crazy but everything was delicious. I had the pate de campagne and the Boeuf Bourguignon. Particularly enjoyed the cocktails like the St Germain Spritz. All staff were wonderful, particularly the bar staff. My only complaint? It’s loud. So loud you can’t easily follow a conversation unless you are right next to the person. This appears to be a cultural aspect of the East Coast of the USA. I don’t think I’ll ever be okay with how loud some places can get. I want to talk to the people I’m with at a restaurant. Still, I’d put up with a lot for food and service this enjoyable. Recommended.

This restaurant is very conveniently located in the meatpacking district and the interior is amazingly decorated. We went on a Wednesday evening with a reservation and the restaurant got pretty packed around 6pm. We tried their beef tartare, sautéed spinach, scallops, escargot and mussels with chips. Our favourite was the escargot, it came with freshly baked baguette for you to dip in the buttery garlic parsley sauce. Overall everything was good but nothing hit the spot, hence the 4 stars.

I dined here plenty of times and this is the first time I am writing a review. The food is always excellent as well as the service. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and reminds me of there other locations throughout the states. People watching at there outdoor section is great. All together they offer a great brunch during the daytime and a very solid typical french dinner at night. Definitely give it a try
