Profile

The working butcher shop in the front still comes off as a little too Ragtime—as if you should be doing your marketing carrying a wicker hamper. But you won't hear the rustle of petticoats wending round the dining tables in the back. Les Halles is for unapologetic meat eaters. And what a spectrum of protein it is: boudin noir, ginger-marinated hanger steak salad, Moroccan lamb sausage, even pig's feet. And it's one of the few places a TV over the bar wouldn't feel out of place. Provided it's always tuned to soccer. — Hal Rubenstein

Awful Service

Went on a Saturday night at about 10:30 pm. Chose to sit outside for dinner b/c of the noise level inside. Waitress was in a hurry to take our order. We told her we wanted time to look at the menu and ordered pre-dinner drinks. She came back 3 times to ask if we wanted to order but never brought the drinks. When reminded, she said she forgot. So we ordered a bottle of wine to drink instead. That was brought rather quickly, and again she wanted to take our order. We just wanted to relax with a drink before dinner! But we gave her our order anyway. We never saw her after our meal arrived. Which was too bad, b/c the choucroute garnie didn't have the potatoes included, although they were listed on the menu. Also, inside diners came out and smoked right next to us on the sidewalk. Not nice.

Half off wine, and less than half the flavor.

Went there on Monday night for their great 50% off wine list. We had some spectacular wines that we never would've ordered( St. Estephe 04), but the food was pretty bad. Between the four of us, we had the escargot, steak frites, mussels, and rotiserie chicken frites, and all were poorly cooked. Chicken and steak were severely overdone, and the escargots lacked any measure of complexity. (even the homeless guy I gave my leftover chicken too complained about how tough it was ;) . Additionally, our waiter was slow, and they were out of some of the wines that we ordered. If it wasn't for the 50% off wine, we'd be very disappointed. Skip Les Halles, unless you're going just for drinks.
