Our Guestbook
“ 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! ”
“ The food was definitely enjoyable, and the ambience was just as nice. ”
“ 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: Creme Brulee (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! ”
“ Great place to go if you want to remind yourself how much middle school French you didn't retain. Food was delicious though, made me feel better about forgetting all my French. I highly recommend the escargot, because 1) I can at least FEEL French while eating it, and 2) dipping the complimentary bread in the escargot garlic butter is *bisou du chef * ”
“ It’s a small place that operates like a great big French place: great food. Excellent service. ”
“ La Boite en Bois is a long time neighborhood place for very traditional French fare, but it gets overrun between 5-7:30pm with Lincoln Center show goers. That's when the loud talking, brusque service and heightened level of anxiety about making your curtain prevail. Then it calms... Otherwise, very nice and laid back, affordable French without wild flavors or sauces. Nice dessert selection. Not decadent in the least. ”
“ La Boite en Bois is our second living room. We love the place and have been going for quite a long time now. The menu is wonderful and generous, as is Gino, owner and chef. Five big stars! ”
“ 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. ”
