It had been a while since I visited my old neighborhood, and it was such a joy to see how the area has grown with a mix of new and familiar spots. This was my first time dining at The Consulate – UWS, and it instantly became a new favorite. The decor is beautiful — stylish without trying too hard — and the service was genuinely welcoming. We felt taken care of from the moment we walked in. The food was the real standout. - Escargot: Delicious and tender. I personally would’ve loved a bit more garlic, but it was still very enjoyable. - Crab Cake & Grilled Octopus: Both were absolute perfection. Fresh, well-seasoned, and cooked exactly right. - Cocktails: Their cocktail list is impressive, and the Amy cocktail was especially fantastic. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and truly enjoyed the atmosphere, the food, and the service. I’m already looking forward to coming back.
Busy restaurant with good vibes. The place is quite noisy and has a dark atmosphere. We had the short rib plate and the gnocchi. Short rib was really good, a bit rosemary forward for my taste. The gnocci dish was a bit bland and lacking in a defined flavor.
Sasha was our server and made the whole experience even better—super helpful when it came to choosing drinks and desserts, and really knew the menu well. The vibes were immaculate, definitely perfect for a date night. The staff overall was attentive without being overbearing, which we really appreciated. The menu also had a wide variety of options, so there’s something for everyone. Would definitely come back!
I had an absolutely exceptional dining experience at The Consulate UWS. This French restaurant truly stands out in the Upper West Side for its elevated cuisine, refined atmosphere, and outstanding attention to detail. From the moment I walked in, the service was warm, welcoming, and highly professional. The staff is attentive without being intrusive, creating a perfectly balanced dining experience. Every detail — from presentation to timing — is thoughtfully executed. The food was outstanding. The burger was incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked, and the tartare was fresh, delicate, and beautifully seasoned — easily some of the best I’ve had in New York. You can tell the kitchen focuses on high-quality ingredients and precision. Another highlight is their impressive wine list and cocktail selection. There is a wide variety of wines and curated drinks, making it a perfect spot whether you’re going for a casual evening or a more elevated dining experience. A unique touch that makes this place even more special is the live jazz on Mondays, which adds a sophisticated and cozy ambiance. A special mention to Santiago, the bartender — he truly made my evening unforgettable. A highly professional bartender who delivers exceptional service and crafts outstanding drinks. Overall, The Consulate UWS is a top-tier French restaurant in NYC that delivers on food, service, and atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience on the Upper West Side.
The restaurant reminded me of the French movie, "The Taste of Things". The atmosphere was like being in a kitchen of a French home. The lighting made it feel cozy & enjoyable. When we sat down, we were serviced with attention and recommendations of the food both off menu and specials. We had wine but the cocktails looked amazing and complimentary to the food. We had the artichoke with aioli. Escargot, Ceasars salad with anchovies and lastly bone marrow with fig sauce. Oh, the flavors! For entrees, the pork chop apple sauce with mustard spicy! I had the short rib braised with capitelli and herb ricotta cheese! The dessert, apricot panne Cotta with orange vouray champagne designed with edible flowers adorning the dessert.. To tell the truth, I was sad to go and not able to eat more! Proof, I will be going back to have more! Looking for a wonderful food experience in France 🇫🇷, please go here. Anywhere you are seated is just a great spot.. You a seat to watching other's eating.m enjoying their food & wishing you had what they were eating..
