    Carrément magnifique! Drool. Easily one of the best restaurants I've been to so far in NYC. Oysters were super fresh. I got the scallops for mains and it was very light, full of flavor, plated with finesse. My friends both got the steak frites which was tender and cooked to perfection - 0 grey band. Profiteroles were delectable. What really made this place for me was the atmosphere - super vibrant, mid 20s to mid 40s clientele - it had that buzz to it. Waiter had a great sense of humour. Only critique was the speed for food between the ap and main took almost 40 mins to arrive but it was well worth the wait. Can't wait to go back and try their burgers. A must go!

    I can definitely see why Raoul's has a great reputation! I loved the vintage theme of the restaurant with ambient lighting, portraits all over the walls, and even a super tiny staircase leading to the upstairs bathroom. The food was great! The steak is definitely a must try. The meat was cooked perfectly, and the fries were super crispy. The peppercorn balanced perfectly with the sauce and gave it a nice little kick. It was a unique, buttery, sauce that left you wanted to dip the steak in more. The service was great, they even brought me more sauce. The burger was also really good. The bun was soft, the burger was juicy, and the condiments complimented the dish as a whole. I was told that during dinner time, only a certain amount are released. I would definitely come back for more, if I get lucky with a reservation again :).

    ***Gotta make reservations in advance*** This is one of the hot spots in WV. The bar seats only 8 people. If you don't have a reservation, be ready to wait in line 30 mins before they open at 5 PM. You gotta have the burger!!! It's one of a kind and one of the best-tasting burgers in the city. The chef only makes 12 burgers per day. The beef quality is good, the kick from the black peppercorn takes it to another level, the cheese and the pickles, everything is well balanced. On top of that, that burger dipping sauce is phenomenal The chef's recommendation for this burger is medium rare, but that's too raw/pink for me. I ordered a medium, and it was great! The fries are crispy and seasoned well. The crab cakes croquettes are great! Crispy on the outside and the sauce is perfectly balanced. Overall the food and the ambiance is great. I love that it has a speakeasy vibe to it. It is intimate and that classic old fashioned New York Style takes me back in the old days. I'm giving it a four star because I wasn't impressed with the service from the bartender. Unfortunately he never acknowledged my presence. He only talked to my friend, it's like I didn't exist. So f...that!

    We came here on a Sunday without reservation. Took us ~30 minutes to be seated (we sat at the bar), but it was absolutely worth it. We tried the burger which I heard is one of the best and the steak, both really good. Staff were friendly and the ambience and the vibe was amazing. Will I come back? This is one of those "hell yea" cases!
