Authentic food, genuine staff, an overall fabulous dining experience. Highly recommend the pate campagne, Caesar salad, duck, venison, and sole. But everything is delicious and the service impeccable! If your lucky, Danielle might break out in song, Edith Piaf style...
I hesitate to write anything about this hidden gem. It's my go-to restaurant for every occasion. ... or just a dinner out. It's like stepping into a family - run bistro in Provence. Partly because it is-- just on W . 86th St. Almost everyone really IS related! The colorful paintings adorning are done by one
waitress, Mme D. O! You want to know about the food?? Divine! All traditional plates that you'd expect to find in France....Daily specials. Light flakey tarts. Rich chocolate mousse. Trembling creme caramel.
O. I have to go!!! I've made myself hungry!!!
Excellent French restaurant with not large bud excellent menú and lots of delicious desserts on separed list...friendly ambiance with elegant decoration makes you feel like a king. Hightly recomended !
I think it's legitimately the best old school French cuisine in New York City. Duck, lamb, onion soup, snails are excellent!!! Wine is so delicious and unbelievable cheap! Service is so great! Love the place, highly recommend if you wanna try real French food:)
The charm of an older French restaurant on the UWS was not lost on us as we visited with old friends who introduced us to La Mirabelle. We sat upstairs overlooking the main dining room and it was a perfect place to eat and talk and spend 2 1/2 hours (our choice to keep it slow). We could talk with each other and hear each other and we weren't right up next to anyone. Our server was a delight. Dinner was terrific. We will be back
My family and I LOVE Aperitif and have been eating there every since it opened! We have been to multiple dinners, lunches, brunches, etc. They used to serve a lamb shank over risotto that was AMAZING, but they (sadly) took it off the menu (I'm DYING for it to come back, so if anyone of importance is listening..pretty please?) But anyway, today was my dad's birthday so we decided to go for brunch. It was surprisingly empty, usually reservations are needed. The restaurant is nice, clean, and modern and always plays good music (kudos to whoever is picking the Pandora station!) The waitstaff is very friendly and accommodating. We had Bellini's and they are the best! The waitress explained that they use a peach liquor, instead of peach nectar, and it actually tastes much better. I had the seafood salad today, and it's really fresh and delicious. My parents had omelettes and eggs benedict, and my brother ate the "croque mosier" and all were delicious! All the plates were (figuratively) licked clean, Aperitif is a great place!
La Mirabelle is our most favorite restaurant in New York. The owners are lovely, the food is consistently of high quality, served hot and attractively, and delicious. Staff is very friendly and helpful. We go to La Mirabelle whenever we can but especially when we need nurturing or are celebrating a special occasion.
And yes, you can have a conversation and hear!
We ended up here because we spent an extra night in New York due to the weather, and were tired of Italian. What a great place. The food was fantastic, wine recommendations spot on, and the desserts were great too. We had the veal ragout, chicken cordon bleu, and fusilli with vegetables. All was delicious. Highly recommended!
La Mirabelle has excellent authentic French food and wonderful service. It was particularly enjoyable to be treated by a Physician Friend who has been a loyal customer since its opening in 1984. It was fun, as a Francophile for decades, to all join in singing La Marseillaise the day after Bastille Day, led by a member of the Restaurant staff🍷🍹😊!!
Had dinner last night with three friends and the four of us thoroughly enjoyed every minute spent at La Mirabelle. The decor is lovely, the personnel charming, efficient and accommodating, the food completely delicious and you can entertain a conversation without having to scream or use sign language ! A quite delightful evening and many more to come ! I very highly recommend this lovely French restaurant,

Top notch service, excellent food and pleasant ambience. A gem
Were we the youngest people in the restaurant by 30 years? Yes. Did it matter? No!
Look, this isn't an "impress your date" type of place, but for *authentic*, traditional French cuisine, I don't know that I've had better in the city. The escargot and the venison were particular standouts.
