Best French Restaurants in Cliffside Park

An Exceptional Evening at La Grande Boucherie Dining at La Grande Boucherie was nothing short of spectacular. The combination of impeccable food, a refined atmosphere, and excellent service made for an unforgettable evening. The Food I opted for their ribeye steak, and it was, without a doubt, one of the finest cuts of beef I’ve ever had. Cooked to a perfect medium rare, the steak had a beautifully caramelized crust that locked in all the rich, robust flavors. Every bite was tender, juicy, and seasoned to perfection. Paired with the ribeye were their smashed potatoes, a simple yet elevated side that brought the meal together. Creamy and buttery with a hint of garlic, they were the perfect complement to the richness of the steak. The portion size was generous, and the presentation was elegant yet inviting. The Beers To accompany my meal, I chose a couple of IPA beers from their thoughtfully curated drink menu. The first was a bold, hoppy West Coast IPA with citrus and pine undertones that paired beautifully with the richness of the ribeye. The second was a hazy New England IPA, bursting with tropical fruit flavors, which provided a refreshing contrast to the hearty meal. Both beers were served perfectly chilled, enhancing their flavor profiles and making them an ideal match for the steak. The Atmosphere and Service La Grande Boucherie’s ambiance is something to behold. The stunning décor, with its grand Parisian brasserie-inspired design, added a layer of sophistication to the evening. Despite the upscale vibe, the atmosphere remained welcoming and warm. The service was equally remarkable. My server was attentive, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about helping me pair the perfect beer with my meal. Their genuine passion for the menu and dedication to making my experience memorable was evident throughout. I want to thank Omar and Regina for their Amazing treat I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

Great table and service. Branzino was excellent as was the endive salad.

Beautiful place in both areas, inside the bar room is my favorite though. I love the red velvet banquettes and that great wall behind the bar! Very convenient if you are traveling by Metro North. The food was delicious, my only thought is that the Onion soup was a bit sweet, as if it had sugar in it, but still great, I just prefer it less sweet. Mussels and fries were great, truffle fries, by the way. It’s on the expensive side, but no different than any other restaurant in the same level. We’ll be going back.

Very good service, the food was delicious and the prices were fair especially for the area and the quality. Great atmosphere and lovely staff.

The only problem with Le Monde this time was the huge number of people there at 5:45pm and on. It was completely full and despite our early reservation we had to sit in a table for 5 next to the bar. Very noisy and hard to have conversations across the table. The food was as delicious as usual though :-).
