Opening 7 Days for Dinner and Sunday Brunch - Starting September 24th

Chef Aless had been cooking French food in NYC at Mon Petit Cafe, her NYC family owned business until 2017. She then opened a successful catering company that's still going strong. She joined forces with her husband Justin a successful NYC restauranteur to create Brasserie.
Signature dishes are "Parisian" specialties such as Steak au Poivre, coq au vin and seafood towers. The couple also serves "American" fare with a French twist like the bistro burger and other amazing treats like mussels and fries.

Chef Aless was featured on Food Networks Chopped!! Google the "snails episode"

The restaurant vibe and decor is a replica of both Parisian and NYC French brasseries. The hospitality is both inviting and professional.

The food is simply perfection as Chef grew up on her grandparents vineyard in France and French food comes naturally.

    First visit to Brasserie, and will be first of many. Hands down best French on LI. Went as a party of 5, and all meals were exceptional! Appetizers: Seared foie gras is the real deal and generously portioned. Baked camembert generated oohs and aahs. Mains: Filet mignon--fine cut and perfectly grilled. Cassoulet--excellent confit and perfect ratio of beans/meat. Duck Magret: tender and delicious--what you hope for in a LI duck. Bass Filet--melts in your mouth. Chicken cordon bleu: lightly breaded and fried and perfectly executed. All dishes well-presented. Table visit from chef-owner Aless is a special touch that shows class and caring! Our server Michael was a real pro! All in all an excellent experience and can't stop raving about it. Opened last year, Aless and Justin are for real! Can't wait to go back!

    We’ve enjoyed eating here several times before - this time we had the autumn salad and tuna tartar followed by the Tuesday mussel and French fries special. Everything was delicious. Lovely ambiance and friendly professional service. Good wine by the glass selections. We’re planning to go back soon for the Wednesday prix fix.

    Everything at Brasserie was just wonderful. The food was delicious. The wait staff was pleasant, polite and attentive. The chef even came to the table to check on us and see how we like our meal. Everything was top notch here and I would highly recommend a visit. They have very French food like escargot and Camembert cheese and also more basic food like steak, salad and roasted chicken for those who are not too adventurous. There is something for everyone, a prixe fixe menu on certain nights and specials on all nights. I will definitely be visiting again. Excellent job Chef Aless - I wish you much success.
