About:When it is this difficult to get a table, you know something has to be special about Balthazar. A recreation of a French brasserie, it is bold, loud and exciting. The space is dominated by red leather banquettes with retro mirrors adding to the room's spaciousness. The restaurant is the creation of Keith McNally, who also owns Pastis in the Meatpacking District. Balthazar serves such excellent dishes as rillettes of rabbit with marinated mushrooms. Call or check the website for hours.

    Slow service and below average steak. Nice wine list and fun to people watch.

    The very first thing I do after I book my flight to New York City, is make reservations at Balthazar Restaurant. I usually go twice, once for dinner and once for lunch/brunch. Wouldn't be a trip to NYC without the fine food and service at this wonderful establishment. My hats off to the proprietors - they have it right all 'round!

    Service excellent, but very noisy. Tables crowded together. Onion goat cheese tart was delicious but a green salad was under dressed. Salmon and duck confit were good but not great. Dessert tarts were disappointing.
