Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"Le Gigot was tres charmant with truly authentic, excellent French food! We lived in Europe for 10 years and were spoiled with the wonderful French cuisine. So our standards are high and we were not disappointed. If you order an appetizer and a desert, the smaller main course is enough. Don't miss the Tarte Tatin!"

"We love the restaurant. The crab cake had very little filler, was crunchy in the outside and soft on the inside. We were there last year
and it was as good as we remembered. The main course of lamb was wonderfully prepared. WE will try to return as soon as possible."

Overall Rating 4.0 out of 5 (Very Good)
"We have been to Le Gigot for dinner many time and always love it. This was brunch for first time and it was also wonderful. The charming room is no less enjoyable in daylight, and the food was all excellent. Prices are comparable to what you'd pay in a neighborhood bar/restaurant, but quality is much higher."

Review 11 for Le Gigot

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"Always delicious - whether it is the French onion soup, the crab cakes, a simple mesclun salad with that amazing fig balsamic dressing, the Maine lobster on shrimp risotto or the hearty cassoulet on a cold winter's night! You really can't go wrong here. The menu provides plenty of options - fish, chicken, duck confit, steak - and a somewhat newly added hamburger (and frites), which I would rate as one of the best in NYC. The soups are also some of the best in NYC - squash and crayfish, roasted garlic mushroom, French onion, etc. A wonderful dining experience!"

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"My sister and I wanted good French food for a while. We decided to try a new place for New Year's Eve. Unfortunately many of the places had pre-fix menu and we were craving the traditional dishes. We finally found Le Gigot which kept their usual menu, thank goodness. We went early so the cozy restaurant seemed spacious. We sat near the back and was well taken care of by the staff. We started the evening with oysters on a half shell from the west coast. Delicious. Next we got the endive salad and crab cake appetizers. I'm usually not a fan of crab cakes but this was amazing. It was sweet and buttery. The seasoning was perfect. I'm still dreaming of it days after. My sister got her Duck Confit and I my Bouillabaisee. We were both very pleased"

Overall Rating 4.0 out of 5 (Very Good)
"Consistently delightful, Le Gigot offers a provincial take on French food. The wine list is simple but well selected. Appetizers, entrees and desserts are comforting, always freash and tasty. This is not haute cuisine, and its not an haute environment. Think quiet conversation, good food and drink. The way dining used to be before the uber-chef world emerged."

"This is an old favorite. Expert service, first rate food. The bouillabaisse was the real thing, with a rouille and properly served condiments. You think you are in Paris. Tiny tables and room but it does not matter. More expensive than the average Village bistro but well worth it. May it always flourish, and don't tell too many people about it. One of the truly French restaurants in New York. It was not crowded and the noise level was nice and low."

"We eat here every time we are in New York. Small bistro-like setting in West Village, wonderful ambiance, great for couples, and we have always had an excellent meal. Only drawback is the payment is only with Amex or cash--no other credit cards or checks--but this is an easily overcome problem. The restaurant is small and not suitable for large groups."

Overall Rating 2.0 out of 5 (Fair)
"We appeared to be about the only non-tourists there, and the service (focused on moving the tables through) and attitude (condescension) was geared to that crowd. Cash/Amex only policies are ridiculous in a busy, pricey Manhattan restaurant. That's for start-up mom and pop bars in Brooklyn. With Le Gigot's healthy volume and moderately high prices, not paying a few measly fees to Mastercard is just bad customer service. Everyone in the restaurant was annoyed by it, including me. The food was solid, but if you feel like you're at Appleby's then it's not really worth it."

The food was excellent and perfectly paced.Enough attention to feel cared about and not enough to feel smothered - a perfect balance.And even though it is a tiny place, they did not disturb us as we spnt 2 1/2 hours over dinner.I've been there before and will definitely be there again."

Review 32 for Le Gigot

Overall Rating 3.0 out of 5 (Good)
"We had the prix fixe menu, which contained a decent assortment of dishes from the a la carte menu. The lobster-frisee salad especially was very generous and very good. But the bouilliabaisse was just run-of-the-mill and the dessert, a brioche bread pudding swimming in creme anglaise was unremarkable. Paired with good but not outstanding wines, this was $65/per person, with tax and tip $180 for 2 people. Not a bargain, nor an outstanding meal. Service was good except our waiter spoke heavily accented English and we had to have him repeat the names of the wines several times until, rather than embarrass him further, we just drank it without knowing what it was!"

"I brought my friend here for her birthday on recommendation of a NY Food Tour guide. My friend spent this past summer in Lyon, France enjoying some of the best cuisine in the world. She thought Le Gigot was fabulous and very authentic. She was extremely excited to be able to share a wonderful french dining experience with friends.

My other friend and I, who had been to France, agree that it was one of the best meals we have ever had.

Thank you,"
