This classic French restaurant, set in a restored, turn-of-the-century carriage house in Greenwich Village that was once owned by Aaron Burr, is one of New York’s most romantic eateries (and the setting for many marriage proposals). Dark and elegant, the hushed, candlelit, two-story dining room is richly appointed with antique sconces, oriental carpets and blazing fireplaces. The menu here is straight-ahead French, with seasonal accompaniments and modern flourishes that add sparkle to the plate.
