This is one of my favorite places in the city. I love the salmon pot pie, eggplant with goat cheese, avocado toast, and heart of palm salad. Good wine menu too.
The aioli and Parmesangrilled breadsalad is delicious. The herbed goat cheese balls are also great. However the banana dessert (forget what it's called) is not worth it (the pastry itself is so-so)
Love couscous tower. Definitely try this menu. This venue is small and always crowded. Usually 20-30min wait after you leave your name down. Service is always good
The couscous is delicious, filling, and as an added bonus it is an architectural marvel. A photo is worth a thousand words but I was too in awe to take one.
Such an old French cafe vibe in Nolita. It’s a bit tight inside, but there is outdoor/ sidewalk seating. Def recommend the salmontartine and the egg dishes
The avocado toast, the waffles and the couscous are amazing. The place is also great. The big problem is: they accept only cash, I loved the food but I hate(and avoid) to use cash :(
The avocado toast is always comforting and satisfying (fyi—Gitane had it on their menu before anyone). Cous cous is another staple and is delicious and filling. Otherwise, it's sadly gone downhill.
Cute place with great atmosphere. Sidewalk tables do the trick. Chicken satay and goat cheese salad were marvelous, truly well balanced in flavours. Our host, Lindsey, was a gem of a person!
The waiter are very attentive and the cafe itself very cozy and nice. The breakfast was delicious and so was the coffee and the juice pressé!The music was great too btw;)
A cute little French stylecafé in SoHo that's great for brunch. Avocado toast here seems to be a favorite, but I prefer the heartier baked eggs (think shakshuka) with lambmerguez.
Baked eggs with tomatoes & basil = the best. Loved the olives and orangesappetizer too-- really great depth of flavor! Cute place with good service. I'm still drooling about it.
Avocado toastappetizers to start. Main Courses: Perfectly seasoned Moroccan couscous with merguezsausages & baked pasta (slightly on the heavy/cheesy side but still really good)
Cute little Moroccan inspired cafe. Avocado toast makes the perfect snack while shopping in the area. Also love the arugula & beet salad for a bigger meal.
One of my favorite brunch places in NYC. MUST get the avocado toast. Love the salmon pot pie and moroccan couscous. Meatballs just so so. Sit outside if you can. I adore the waitress outfits :)
Everything in there is so pretty! I think I prefer the decor to the food, but the food is still pretty good. The chicken tower thing we had wasn't great but the avocado toast made up for it.
their salads are all awesome, but get the tower of couscous and add the merguez if you're hungry. or get one for the table to share because its freaking delicious.
Come for brunch, lunch or dinner - the food in this chiccafé is a consistently delicious mix of French and Moroccan cuisines. The sidewalk tables are perfect for a sunny day.
Even the bathroom door is french! Really cool place. Tried the baked egg, basil and tomato, not the best. My heart wanted to order the waffles, so its more my fault. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) En savoir plus
While this place is perpetually packed it's definitely something you have to check out at least once in your life. Get the avocado toast, the couscous and get your people watching on!
