French Restaurant Week includes special deals at dozens of restaurants on the days between America’s Independence Day and France’s Bastille Day. Why not celebrate these two holidays of independence at your favorite restaurant?
A pleasing way to enjoy the history of two great nations is to indulge in a delicious, buttery croissant or a savory dish of Ratatouille with a glass of rich Bordeaux! New York City has several options for you to choose those sweet or savory cuisines that are known solely as French delicacies. Whether you want traditional or modern, New York City has it from Uptown to Midtown to Downtown.
Bar Omar
There’s no denying the prevalent influence of North African flavors in French cuisine, and Bar Omar in Williamsburg explores just that. Inspired by Omar Guerda, who acquainted Parisians to North African cuisine in the 1970s, Bar Omar offers plenty of shareable, authentically homestyle options.
Vaucluse
