Quote as “unpretentious but stylish”, Le Chat Noir, casual bistro-style with Parisian left-bank feel features classic, traditional French cuisine and a large selection of savory and sweet crepes. The Wine Lounge atop Le Chat Noir restaurant pays homage to vintage -- wine-making and a retrospect to Comics Black & White silent films. With an impressive wine list and a wide-range of cocktails for you to choose from, it is a place to share an intimate moment. Cozy home-like ambiance, we look forward to nourishing you and tantalizing your taste buds in our art nouveau inspired Restaurant and Lounge.

    Post-car crashing through part of their dining area, Le Chat Noir has bounced back beautifully. Excellent Mahi mahi and duck confit on Sunday evening, followed by a delicious apple tart. Kudos to this neighborhood gem!

    The meal began with very tasty and warm bread. Both the salad and soup of the day were excellent. We were both very pleased with our entrees - beef bourginon and a crepe with sauteed chicken breast. We concluded the meal with very good decaf. The waiter was friendly and attentive.

    Per the Michelin Guide - a neighborhood gem. Great service, very good food and a moderately-priced wine list. No corkage fee Sunday nights and other specials during the week.

    Always an excellent, friendly neighborhood place for a nice, quiet and excellent meal. This time enjoyed an wonderful Sunday brunch, but have had dinners at the restaurant as well. A good place for a celebratory event, but also a quiet place for a business dinner. The food is always delicious and nicely presented. the waitstaff are always attentive. Highly recommend.

    We had a wonderful evening beginning at our arrival. The service was outstanding throughout; waiters were thoughtful without being intrusive. It was easy to have a conversation as the place was not noisy. The food was excellent. The dimmed lights were a plus. The decoration can be improved and the place is a bit cramped but overall it was an excellent experience. The menu does not list calories.

    This is a great restaurant and the food and service is really good. The only "complaint" I have is how cramped the seating is - but it certainly reminds you of being in a little french bistro!
