"They “hit the right notes” at this “stalwart” Theater District “tribute to Josephine Baker”, an “old-style Parisian” joint featuring “capable” French bistro fare from a “welcoming” staff." Full review
BlackBook "Dine on bistro fare to dulcet tones of live piano. Good pre-theater prix-fixe deal: make it lobster bisque, followed by duck confit with spinach and sweet potato purée."
New York Magazine Critic's Pick
"At Jean-Claude Baker’s lively homage to his adopted mother, Josephine Baker, the welcome’s so warm, it feels like a homecoming, and the piano is live every night."
Time Out "Food ranges from culinary relics like a succulent duck à l’orange to Southern American dishes (crisp-skinned fried chicken)." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This Theater District classic was founded by the late son of dancer/singer/actress Josephine Baker. There's live piano music every night during dinner, plus during Sunday brunch." Full review
