Best French American Restaurants in Lincoln Square

An all-around satisfying brasserie experience with a short rib bourguinon that was truly outstanding. And don’t pass up the delicious basket of gougeres, for the table and/or with cocktails. Wines by the glass were also excellent selections. We’ll be back … hopefully often!

As usual is a great place and the food is fantastic

My Sunday brunch/lunch today at THE BARKING DOG was absolutely perfect. I arrived very early for my reservation and was seated inside. This was a plus today because the temp was freezing. Everyone was very friendly and considerate. The Matre d' stopped by our table. My salad was delicious, and my son's egg special looked delicious as well. We had more than enough time, since we were seeing a matinee at the WORLD STAGES next door. We doddled at our table and no one rushed us. A perfect combination of concerned and prompt service, outstanding cuisine, and a relaxed ambiance. The presence of numerous delightful dogs added to this ambience, and I do love dogs.

The setting is beautiful and the service was truly terrific. However, the food was mediocre for both me and my guest-- and very expensive given the quality.

Consistently good food and nice ambiance. Will go back again
