"I love this little neighborhood restaurant! The food is delicious, the atmosphere cozy, great lighting, no pretension. Had the gnocchi verde and an arugula salad with apples, walnuts and manchego - both delicious. My husband who grew up with a French mother had the Beef Bourgogne and loved it. The little chocolate lava cake with coconut ice cream was the perfect way to end the meal. And Annette is a warm and wonderful host!"

"What a charming and cozy place! Upon entering you feel like you are in a true french bistro. Every singe dish was delicious and tasteful. Steak tartar - wow! I order it every time I see it on the menu, and this one was one of the best - one can taste the freshness of meat without overpowering sauces. - fried Artichoke - crispy and yummy (without greasy or oily taste to it). And the start of the night was the steak! Holy Shmoley! I This steak was by far one of the best (everyojebin our party agreed with this)! Perfectly done with thin, crispy french fries and terragon sauce -(I am salivating just thinking about it:) Service was absolutely amazing! Our waiter was not only professional but very friendly (that you will hardly find in France😆), he was always there when we needed anything. His recommendations were on point. Do yourself a favor - and go for a nice family dinner or a romantic date - this place will become your favorite low-key restaurant."

"Let’s start with the fact that I’m just a year removed from living in Paris and miss it deeper than he sea covers the ocean above. There are special few places for me that transcend local, this is one of those restaurants, I feel like I’m back home in Paris, for even a brief moment. I recommend the escargot for an appetiser and I would like to have tried the fried squid but I picked the fois gras while excellent the matching apple sauce purée was more miss than hit. I have had the steak,duck, and lamb. I recommend them in that order personally, with the steak barely passing the canard. The service is simply devastatingly good and the people as kind as can possibly be. There’s no negatives I have and if you read my other review’s you know that’s rare. UPDATE: Oliver’s: Once a Favorite, Now a Maybe I’ve been a longtime fan of Oliver’s — the ambiance, the French bistro aesthetic, the sense that you’ve stumbled into a little corner of Paris tucked into Brooklyn. But my most recent visit made me question if the magic is fading. 👎 Service: Cold and Defensive Our waitress was… difficult. Dismissive, oddly defensive, and unwilling to take accountability. At one point, she claimed I didn’t get the dessert menu because I had stepped outside to smoke — which I hadn’t. Instead of simply placing the menu on the table like any competent server would, she made it my fault. That kind of interaction just kills the mood. 🫤 Food: Technically Fine, Totally Forgettable Everything was cooked well, sure. But nothing tasted like anything special. Sauces were bland. Seasoning was minimal. No dish stood out. It all felt uninspired, like the chef was following a script but forgot the soul. 💸 Price: $127 — For What? With service that felt icy and food that didn’t deliver, $127 for one person felt absurd. I’ve had better meals at half the price where I was treated like a human being, not an inconvenience. ⸻ I’m hoping this was just an off night. Oliver’s has been great in the past. But the vibe, the food, and the service all missed the mark — and for now, I can’t recommend it the way I used to."

"The food was soooo good! I really enjoyed oysters, foie gras with apple sauce and steak with fresh fries ❤️wine was also great! The service was also good despite the fact the waiter forgot to give me a fork (but that was Valentine’s Day, there were many people and it was already late, maybe the waiter was tired)"

"This is a wonderful small French restaurant. There is a very cozy and homely atmosphere here. Here is a very friendly and cheerful hostess and excellent service! There is very tasty food and no less delicious desserts. The prices are quite reasonable. You should definitely look here and enjoy this indestable atmosphere!"
