Review by Lionel Grimes

September 05, 2024

Orsay is my go-to French bistro on the Upper East Side! 🌟 The cozy, romantic atmosphere and attentive staff make every visit feel special.

I highly recommend the French Onion Soup; it’s hearty and rich, though not served as hot as I’d prefer. The complimentary bread with butter is a nice touch, too!

Don't skip dessert - the floating island is divine! 🍮 Although my steak frites could use a bit more flavor, the crispy fries saved the day. Overall, it's a lovely spot for lunch or dinner... I’ll definitely be back!
