French Roast

The food was exquisite! Maria Alejandra was my server and she was super nice and helpful.<br>I had the French Soup, the short rib Parmentier and the creme brulee 😍. I would definitely would recommend this place for someone who is looking for delicious and affordable high end French Cuisine in the Super West Side .

This morning we stopped by because my friend’s parents recommended this place. It was easy to make a reservation; when we showed up there were a few empty tables but I’m not sure how long the wait would have been.<br><br>We had iced lavender honey lattes (they have oat and almond milk for non-dairy folks), eggs benedict with smoked salmon and shakshuka. Our server Steph was very nice!

Such a cozy place to dine in or out!<br>I ate my arugula salad before any pics it was a 10.<br>The restaurant is casual; a cozy Parisian spot on the upper west side of town.<br>Family friendly too.<br>From previous dinners there, i can say w confidence, the hamburger is heavenly. When you add cheese and caramelized onion you won’t believe the juiciness and the flavor, like no other, absolutely gourmet.

Every time we pass by this place, it’s always busy, so today my husband and I finally tried it.I got the cod bouillabaisse,I really liked it. The coconut gelato was sooo good too.We’re definitely coming back to try their breakfast next time:):):)

I had an amazing experience at French Toast in New York! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. The restaurant is clean, cozy, and perfect for brunch with friends or family. The food was absolutely delicious. The French toast was perfectly cooked—soft on the inside, slightly crisp on the outside, and full of flavor. Every bite tasted fresh and homemade. The presentation was beautiful, and the portions were generous. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The service was fast, and the overall experience was excellent. Special thank you to Betsy, Brianna, Yesenia and Jorge.

French Roast has become one of my happy places. I’ve become a regular for breakfast whenever I’m in the area. I feel like Norm at Cheers. Jorge knows my order and my place at the bar. And he always has a smile on his face. The food is excellent. Enjoy.

Steph was such a great server! Super friendly, helpful with the menu, and always checking in to make sure we were enjoying everything. She made our dinner even better. Would absolutely love to have her as our server again.

I sat at the bar and Jorge was an amazing bartender. Hardworking at a busy restaurant and still made time to create some latte art for my mocha 🥰 sweet place and great atmosphere

Great experience overall! The service was attentive, friendly, and made the whole meal very enjoyable. Stephany B took great care of our table and made sure everything came out smoothly. She checked in at the right moments and had such a positive attitude throughout the visit. It really made the dining experience feel relaxed and welcoming. Would definitely come back again!!!!!!

Such a feel good place. We also<br>had the nicest waitress, Maria Alejandra. She had the best energy and was so careful to make sure we got exactly what we ordered. Feels like a little European bistro tucked into the upper west side of New York. Perfect place to meet a friend, spend a rainy afternoon or a Sunday morning. Had such a nice time! Food came out fast and was lovely.<br><br>Went back again and had the most sincere careful waiter David. He is the nicest person and we had a lovely brunch! Thank you David you are incredible and so warm and wonderful.

Food was ok (home fries were not warm) but plates were warm.<br><br>Staff were very attentive and friendly.<br><br>It was a windy day so the window seats were a bit cold. If you can, stay away from the window seatings

French Roast is a delight for food, drink, and atmosphere. We Ate brunch at around 1030 AM. Everything was delicious! The Brioche French Toast was light and sweet and the fruit compote added the perfect amount of tart to the meal. The Shakshuka is delightful and full of spices! The Mezcla sausage tastes great, but be-warned it is spicy! The cappuccino was Great! The tight cozy feel with the vibration from the subway passing beneath gives this restaurant that NYC ambiance that’s second to none. Whether you’re a local or visiting Manhattan for the first time this is a great place to stop and eat!

Great staff! It was super easy to get on the waiting list as a walk-in of 2. They even let us sit at the bar to wait the last few minutes. David was an excellent server and so so kind! The best French toast we’ve ever had and super cute atmosphere :)

First I have to mention that the service was impeccable from the moment we walked in! Our server Lena took care of us and gave us recommendations! We came in for happy hour and started with a couple of drinks and small plates (mussels, potato skins, and cheese plate). All were excellent! We had Coq au Vin and Cassoulet as our entrees. They both hit the spot and provided a level of warmth on a cold autumn night! We cannot wait to return to try the rest of the menu with service so welcoming and outstanding!

Came her for Saturday brunch with some friends. The restaurant is styled as a classic French brasserie and had lots of outdoor seating.<br><br>The French onion soup and croque madames were perfection. We ate every last bite. Only negative was that one friend had an omelet that wasn’t cooked long enough for the cheese to melt. Overall, the food was delicious. Our server was attentive and friendly. Will definitely be going back to try more!
