Service was great. Prompt, polite and timely

The interior fits its name “wooden box”. The place is a small southern French feel. Tables are a bit too close to each other. Not so flexible. We were fine at our little table, but another elderly couple came in and asked if they could have a larger table for 4. (As a way of background, it was 5pm and it was only my wife, myselfI and these two elderly ladies. They denied their request despite a dozen empty tables. A bit narrow viewed was my take.

Not our first time here. While we like the food and the service, it’s a bit pricey. My wife and I had two bottles of sparkling water, one appetizer each and one entree each-came to $228.00 - portions are good, and food is tasty— but they need to work on their table spacing and price.

With all this said, we will go back, but not as often as we return to other places.

Ambience is the worst in a small basement, damp, crowded, the Asian waiter’s attitude is even colder. The dish is sub par, $50 duck tastes worse than China town duck hanging by the supermarket window. The pasta dish is disgusting with small scallops and tiny shrimp.

Food was outstanding! With a true French menu and tables close together, we all agreed it was just like Paris. Four of us ordered appetizers, entrees, and a bottle of wine. There were small misunderstandings thru out but it really boiled over when we went to pay the bill. We each placed our credit cards down only to have the server inform us only two credit cards per table were permitted. Non negotiable! What an irrational, inconvenient, outdated policy. I won’t return.

Excellent French dishes!! What a wonderful place to have a meal! Around the corner from the 1 train or the C and B trains. The delicious dishes were prepared wonderfully. Service was attentive. Great place to take for a date or just catch up with friends. You can take reservations inside but outdoors is first come first serve! I recommend this place if you are in the Lincoln center area.

Everything was absolutely delicious! A bit pricier than I normally choose but worth the splurge, especially for a special occasion. We started with the Homemade Crab Cake with Herb Mayo & Cucumber Salad appetizer (we were hungry so forgot to take a pic). Then I had the Pan-Seared Salmon with a Honey Mustard Crust & Couscous which is melt in your mouth good. My dining partner are every bite of their Seafood Crepes in a Mushroom Sauce & Couscous. We closed with coffee and two desserts: Crème Brûlée (oooh-so-creme-y!) and Profiteroles which were so good I had a spoon in each hand!

Would absolutely go again, and already looking for the occasion to do it!

Feels like Valentine’s here. Maybe it was the ambience or creme brulee. The seafood crepes unique and superb. For me though, it’s the simple things some times. Ok, mushroom ravioli are not simple —my favorite at La Boite. They have a wonderful wild mushroom flavor that pair with any wine. Overall, kudos to the chef and team for making it feel like Valentine’s as I fell in love with that generous mushroom appetizer. You know it’s good when you see regular locals (see photo) here. Tout le repas était une force merveilleuse.

After a visit to the Apple Store on the Upper West Side, we sauntered over and ate outdoors here. Nice setup and terrific food. We had the chicken scallopini and crab cake salad. Loved them both. The staff was very careful and wore masks throughout. Highly recommend and we will be back!
