Profile

This venue is closed.

Ed "Jean-Luc" Kleefield (pictured) is a New Yorker with a French soul—hence his nickname, and his menu, which supplements bistro standards like steak au poivre and lobster bisque with some of the menu's more newfangled notions.

Recommended Dishes

Steamed California artichoke, $11; crab cake, $11.50; steak au poivre, $27
