Le Rivage

Located on Restaurant Row, down the block from where we saw a show. We had the $60 Prefix dinner which overall was good. I had the seafood crepe with shrimp and scallops. Very tasty. Wife had the baked muscles which were good but several had some sand in them. I had the excellent French Onion Soup burger. My wife had the Rainbow trout which was not that good. Overcooked, dry and fishy tasting. For dessert, I had the bread pudding, very good but very sweet. My wife had the creme brulee but not properly torched on top. Great service and fast presentation. It was overall good.

Amazing staff, so friendly and happy. Great customer service rivaled only by their great food. On this day I had their FAMOUS and AWARD-WINNING French Onion Soup Burger and seasoned fries. Oh man was it good. I highly recommend this restaurant and GET THAT BURGER!Dine in: Yes

Marginal food and bad ambiance makes it not worth the price. The food was inconsistent, as some items were very good while others were not. My plate of steak frites felt and looked like it sat under a heat lamp. The steak was good, but cooked to varied amounts while the fries were bland and not fresh. All of the food and the ambiance felt old and stale; something needs to change to make it interesting and fresh. The desserts were well prepared. The service was acceptable, but they rushed you.

I love French onion soup and frogs legs are one of my favorites and Le Rivage is one of the only French restaurants that sells them. Omg they were so delicious. I also wanted to try their French onion soup burger which was heavenly. No complaints at all!!!The food was incredible!

Walked by this place and a woman convinced us to eat here with live music. We had the mushroom risotto and it was delicious. We also had the baked seafood crepe which the sauce was decadent. Lastly we are the seated north Atlantic Salmon which was cooked to perfection and was tasty. Definitely a place to revisit!

I had my birthday dinner here with my boyfriend, we enjoyed the canard a l'orange a lot. The live music starts at 8 and is a great add on to the vibe. Other than the paintings on wall feels too bright and colorful that not so much with the overall ambiance to me, the whole experience is wonderful.

This week is the first week of restaurant week in NYC, and Le Rivage is one of the participating restaurants. Their RW dinner menu is $60, the same price with their dinner prix fixe menu, but the prix fixe one has more options, though not including all the options in RW menu. The food overall was delicious! My favorite was the escagorts. The french onion soup burger was pretty interesting, very new. The least favorite dish for me would be the chocolate molten cake as I was expecting some melted chocolate filling but didn't get it. They have live piano performance late at night; pretty nice vibe in general. Very good service as well!

My friend and I had a wonderful experience at Le Rivage. The staff were so friendly, and the food was INCREDIBLE—especially considering how affordable it was. Highly recommend the escargot and the rainbow trout! Hope to come back here soon!

Very nice French, romantic place with a live jazz band. Ideal for the date. It has classical French cuisine menu. It was quite tasty, but the reason I gave only 4 stars is that 3 out 4 courses that I have ordered came barely warm. I guess it is problem of the kitchen as the place was quiet busy. They also have outside seating.

Visited with a friend during my trip to Manhattan. Old style ambiance and French style cuisine. Cannot fault the food. Enjoyed Bisque to start which was tasty and the famous French Onion Soup Burger for main. My friend had French Onion Soup and then Chicken Cordon Bleu. The quality was excellent. The gripes are with the excessively high costs and asking you for a tip on the bill but not actually taking the tip when settling by card. A little rushed as well. Couldn't rate it higher for these reasons despite the excellent food.
