Over dit restaurant

  • Juweeltje in de wijk
  • Kindvriendelijk
  • Innovatief
The haute-cuisine Midtown of Lutèce and La Côte Basque is just a ghost now. I can’t quite believe I’m saying this, but its spirit of French cooking may be strongest at La Bonne Soupe on West 55th Street. For most of its 48-year run, the compact zinc bar and exposed ceiling beams conjured Paris more faithfully than the menu, where “Les Burgers” were a mainstay.

Recently, though, the kitchen was handed to Nicolas Frezal, who helped revive a Right Bank bistro called Astier after putting in time at the Ritz. He gave the menu a haircut, and brought on new dishes like a housemade terrine with bread from Poilâne... and beef bourguignon exactly the way I always hope it will be made, down to the nest of fresh egg noodles. I like it even better than the motto in the restaurant’s window: “Ici pas de chi chi.” - Pete Wells, New York Times Restaurant Critic

    We had a nice time on our first visit to La Bonne Soupe. It was a busy pre-theater time and the staff was a little stressed, but stayed pleasant. For me, the entree choices were limited—heavy meat dishes or sandwiches were the main choices. I ended up adding salmon to a Caesar salad—a little boring. The salmon was nicely cooked, the salad was drenched in dressing and had to be cut with knife and fork. On the positive side, the oysters, mussels and duck enjoyed by others were good choices. Prices are competitive for the neighborhood.

    La Bonne Soupe does a fantastic job of presenting classic French dishes. All ingredients and dishes are fresh, service is impeccable and prices are low given the neighborhood and the quality of food. I go there for lunch regularly and recommend heartily. Only criticism is that the decor is a bit tired, but ... c'est la vie, and for me offset and then some by the quality of food and service.

    Excellent food at a reasonable price for NYC. The fish "skate" was outstanding and we were surprised to find it on the menu. * people in our party and everyone enjoyed their meal.

    My daughter, daughter-in-law and I had Sunday brunch at La Bonne Soupe and were delighted with the entire experience. It is small but we had reservations and had no wait. The server was very plesant and helpful and the meal was wonderful and affordable. I would highly recommend it. Carol H.

    A little France in midtown Manhattan. Fun menu of good crepes (like they're served in the creperies in France), fondue, great onion soup and salads,..., something for everyone. Reservations are crucial to avoid a long wait outside on busy days. Will still be somewhat frantic, busy when arriving but worth the wait for a table. Once we were seated we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
