Find a restaurant from the Michelin Guide

No stranger to crowds, the team behind Frenchette has quickly found its footing on the ground floor of bustling Rockefeller Center. Dim lighting blankets this elegant, Art-Deco space where a large bar up front mixes and stirs at a fast clip. They have good reason to be speedy: This is one of the more refined restaurants to open in the area in years, and the crowds have caught on immediately. In line with a French brasserie, the menu offers familiar trappings: seafood platters, hearty pâtés, classic sauces like au poivre and vin jaune, and, of course, delicious profiteroles smothered in chocolate sauce. Adding to the fun is a welcome bit of tableside showmanship for dishes like leeks vinaigrette and a signature vanilla cake soaked in génépy.
