Had an amazing dinner at Le Basque in NYC — this place really impressed us. The food was delicious and super creative. You can tell a lot of thought and care goes into how they work with plants — every dish looked great and tasted even better. It’s one of those spots that reminds you how exciting plant-based food can be. The service made the night even better. Our server, Will, was incredibly attentive and informative — he took the time to explain the menu, offered thoughtful recommendations, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. It honestly felt like a five-star experience, but still warm and welcoming. Big thanks also to Russell, the manager, who helped with our reservation and made us feel welcome right away. He even took photos for us before we left — a thoughtful gesture that really rounded out the evening. It’s clear he takes pride in making sure diners have a great experience from start to finish. Le Basque isn’t just a place with great food — it’s an eloquent dining experience, led by people who truly care. Grateful for the evening and already looking forward to coming back. Read less

What an incredible space! The ceiling and centerpiece upstairs were gorgeous for brunch. And lovely, friendly service. But the food is mind boggling. How does the lentil "faux" gras paté get such rich flavor and smooth texture? The steak croissant on the brunch menu is just... An incredible rendition. Great flavors across the board and we loved being there for the brunch menu and also being able to order off the dinner menu. Read less

We had a great lunch there today. The cheese board had some of the best vegan cheese I've ever tasted. The paella was another standout, and the croissant was also great. And the desserts were delicious, particularly the Entremet aux Noisettes, which was a chocolate cake with hazelnut mousse. I'm looking forward to going back on my next NYC trip. Read less

This was the most amazing anniversary dinner we've ever had! Johnny? Ronnie? Great service, the drinks were so good the name eludes me! Food was very well made and presented.

My husband and I went here to celebrate our 51st anniversary and we were so not disappointed! I’ve been vegan for quite a while. And he managed to find a restaurant that I haven’t been to and it was amazing. I had to keep stopping and asking is this really vegan? The food was superb presentation over the top, service was really great. I couldn’t recommend this enough and I look forward to coming back again because we were not able to eat everything on the menu! Read less
