“ Great west village staple, the burger is delicious with all kinds of cheese on top, would be great to have some brioche options or maybe a pretzel bun as it come in a toasted sliced rustic bread (that is really good too!) I cannot stop eating their fries and the special dip sauce, they follow me in my dreams. The chocolate mousse is amongst the best in New York, drinks are perfectly done and the staff is the nicest lead by the amazing Danielle. Atmosfere is warm and welcoming, feels like a friend's house, great place for a date or dinner w the group. Definitely a go. ”

“ We keep coming back to left bank because it is simply that good. Always a great atmosphere, super attentive staff, and the food is incredible. We love sharing appetizers like the calamari and the shaved Brussels salad whenever we go with a group, and then indulge in a delicious bowl of pasta, or the cheeseburger. It always hits the spot! ”

“ Exceeded all expectations Sat solo at the bar and enjoyed lovely conversation with the two bartenders on staff. Started off my meal with dill pickle chips and Mediterranean olives and feta for apps which were both fantastic I enjoyed the bolognese for my main. The pasta was made to perfection, and the sauce full of flavor. Not too oily Ended the night with a heavenly tiramisu. Atmosphere is perfect for a date night, but alas, I shall return solo at the bar for now ”
“ We were delighted to have experienced this evening meal at Left Bank. The owner- Michelin - made sure that guests were comfortable whilst New York was experiencing tremendous heat. The meal was amazing. The wine pairing with white pasta was spot on and the grilled trout was delicious. The slow roasted chicken was melt in your mouth delicious. The dessert flan had a glaze that was delicate and tasty and chocolate is always good! Get a reservation for sure as you want to make sure you enjoy a meal whilst visiting NYC! ”
“ Downtown neighborhood favorite, dine inside or out the service is attentive and friendly. We had drinks and appetizers... the cauliflower was crunchy and flavourful and the fries- addictive. The vibe is chill and relaxed, there is also a bar area to sit and grab a drink. ”
“ Delicious apps and entrees and an excellent happy hour to boot! Had 4 apps and the burger and a beer and wine all for only 84. The octopus was my favorite, but all were delish! And the burger was was juicy and full of flavor! Lovely service too. Definitely recommend!! ”
