Profile

This venue is closed.

Don't sulk if you can't get into Esca across the street: This venerable bistro went modern under chef Bruce Beaty (whose lively flavors reflected stints with Alfred Portale and Gilbert LeCoze). We feel miles from Ninth Avenue in the quirky all-weather courtyard garden. Lemon custard seals the deal. Grab a honey madeleine and catch that curtain.

Entertainment

Sunday and Monday evenings at Le Madeleine promise chill live music, usually a solo performance by a classical jazz guitarist.

If you like seafood, french food, wine, oxygen....THIS is the place for you. Been 'doing' restaurants for over 20 years in Manhattan--Le Madeleine sits at the top of my list. MC Chappaqua, NY
