Bon Appétit: The Haute 5 French Restaurants in New York City

Le Bernardin


This warm, elegant restaurant is known for its focus on seafood. The menu offers an extensive selection of dishes from caviar, to codfish, to crab. Le Bernadin notably refrains from serving endangered species of fish, and non-seafood dishes like Squab and Kobe Beef are available upon request. The four-star restaurant has been praised by everyone from the New York Times to Gourmet Magazine to GQ. Chef Eric Ripert has been award multiple times by the James Beard Foundation.  Le Bernardin has been around for twenty years, and we think it’ll continue to impress for many more.

Le Bernardin is located at 155 Wst 51st Street
