I have lived a couple of blocks away from Cafe Du Soleil for about four years, but just tried it out for the first time a few weeks ago. Wow! This is my new favorite brunch spot, hands down. My girlfriend and I have tried the hash brown combo, a couple of the benedictes, and the croque soleil. All were incredibly tasty, and the dishes have been consistent every time we've returned. I also really appreciate the quick, and friendly service, even when it's during peak hours. Dan, Alec, and Kelly have been especially great! Highly recommended!

Keepin it real out here in UWS
Only had a chance to try it one time and it was pretty darn good. Met up with a local who swears by the place and we tried out some of his favorite dishes. They were all spot on and the clams were extra memorable. The exotic dishes are worth trying to if in the area. Was never into French food but this place be bussin'

Bistro cuisine and good value for what you pay.
I was here with my friend for the prix fix menu of 35 for a three course. It starts on Sunday at 4.
We couldn’t finish and took it to go.
Large portions. Just good

I am a longstanding fan of Cafe du Soleil. They have an extensive menu, and the food is good and well priced for the quality. No one should expect Michelin-star gastronomy, this is solid bistro cuisine, and they do that well. The happy hour is an exceptional value, and I don't know how they make money, but having to be at the (tight) bar does a pretty good job of rationing service, so either come early or be willing to stand. I particularly relish the fact that the staff here are willing to tolerate my terrible French. This is a place I bring my friends and family, and look forward to doing so for a long time to come!

Meh. Atmosphere is great. Food and drinks were ok. Nothing tasted seasoned really, my toast was a little burned and my espresso martini tasted different than normal. I feel like it's priced right. Quick and lovely service staff.

Fantastic brunch! The benedictians eggs were just delicious. We also had some drinks and they were good. The ambience was great, with some lovely music, and the service was also fast and good. Will love to come back.

I really wanted to give this restaurant a higher rating. 3 is being completely fair.
We came with family over the holiday and dined in an outdoor heated bubble. We like those :)
The service was friendly, appetisers and cocktails were also lovely. We had the mussels, fries, French onion soup and the frisée avocado salad.
The problem with was everything else ordered was just so-so or inedible.
The biggest issue for me was my Boeuf Bourguignon. I was excited to have this but the beef was very tough! I actually sent it back expecting the chef to at least pick out some tender pieces. It was still tough. I just did not eat it.
Also, the Le Cassoulet Toulousain was basically just a big dish of white beans with a few pieces of meat. You really must love baked white beans to enjoy this dish.
The lamb leg however was Okei and the asparagus risotto was a true French risotto (meaning it has a little crunch to it) I do not personally mind that, however worth mentioning in case some people do not.
Again, appetisers and drinks were a big hit with myself and family! Would go just for that :)

Great place for drinks and food with people! Their happy hour deal is one of the best in the city if you can get a seat (it's only for those seated in the bar area.) Drinks, food, and staff are always amazing.I love coming here and swing by at least once a week now.

Nice atmosphere with French background music that is pleasant to hear.
For Sunday's brunch, they had on the menu hash browns that were tasty - I recommend them. Both the impossible burger and the french fries were just okay. But the chocolate mousse is special - I loved its taste and freshness.
I was impressed by the server's knowledge of the menu, which helped in avoiding the fettuccini, because it contained chicken stock. However, I was a bit disappointed that he didn't fill up my sparkling water nor did he ask if I was enjoying my meal.
I don't think I'll come back unless there are no other options.

The atmosphere was nice and clean with a crisp french vibe. Music was fitting. The mussels were amazing, get the one with bacon. The drinks were strong and the watermelon infused vodka is so good. Branzino is the best we have had in NYC. It comes whole just how we like it. The creamy spinach was my favorite. We would have given 5 stars but our waiter was not attentive at all. He took our order and we saw him an hour later only because we stopped him and accused him of ignoring. Other than that it was a pleasant experience
