My boyfriend and I came here on Monday, and the lunch was incredible. We're not the fancy restaurant types, but we do love to cook and eat, and we were impressed by the incredible flavors (even the dessert was delicious). Before the food arrived my boyfriend and I were joking about how we'll probably need a magnifying glass to find the food on the plate, but the portions were generous and actually satisfying. I was also surprised at the reasonable wine prices. The hostess even made a point of noting that it was my boyfriend's birthday, which I had only mentioned in passing while making the reservation. Amazing x 10!

Had a great lunch at Nougatine -- the prix fixe (24 bucks for two lunch courses and a dessert course). It certainly was not at the level of dinner a few paces over in the dining room of Jean-Georges, but it was a great way to have lunch and a good value as well. Recommended.

What a wonderful restaurant. I just had to write a review. Right from the start, (and the worst for wear) this was a warm and inviting haven. The food superb. The Tuna Tartare!! There really are not enough words in The English Dictionary to describe this taste sensation. It blew me away, and the other courses were equal to it. Attentive, but not intrusive service and recommendations. They could not be faulted. The Somelier was wonderful too. Unpretentious. The food does the talking. Very good value for the masterpieces that were presented to us. Many thanks. New Yorker's, you are so lucky to have such an establishment on your doorstep. Enjoy!!!

Here is an upscale restaurant that makes you feel right at home the moment you enter. You are met by smiling receptionists, who are friendly and welcoming. You are led into a lofty, beautifully-decorated dining room that feels comfortable no matter how crowded. The service is great, the food is outstanding, and the meal will not require that you take out a loan. You will be surprised at how well-stocked and reasonably-priced the wine menu is. All of the menu items will please your taste buds. Every ingredient is so fresh and sincere. Unlike some other restaurants, I've never had a dish at Nougatine that went too far in a quest to be creative. The chef is a genius at marrying tastes; and not once have I thought "oh this is just too much." Appetizers and desserts are as inspired and delicious as the main offerings. Since my first dining experience at Nougatine in the summer of 2006, I've come back at least once every other month because I can not think of another restaurant that pleases me as much, and in so many ways.

The prix fixe lunch menu has to be the best bargain in town. The decor is smashing and the service is attentive. The food is truly great.

Adjacent to the reception and bar of Jean-Georges Vongerichten' Jean-Georges is his laboratory. A contemporary place to savor the best of what is in the creative brain of one of Manhattan’s truly outstanding chefs. A secret dinning place to enjoy the best of Jean-Georges at a fraction of the price.
