Nice find in the East Village. Tucked down a few stairs is a long narrowish, cozy, French stylish spot. Good craft cocktails and tasty tapas. Was quaint but the space was filled with good vibes

Loved the vibes of this cute and cozy French spot! You may miss the location since it's tiny but the decor is cute, the service is great (thanks Doug!) and the tapas are delicious! We tried several things but the highlights were the frog legs (we were first timers), the crepe Suzette and the drinks...yum! You won't be disappointed, feel free to mention us when you get there :)

Amazing food prepared from the chef in front of you! Definitely coming back, became one of my favorite spots now. The restaurant is a little small and intimate but it’s a must!

Excuse My French is a cute, intimate Parisian bistro that offers highly innovative dishes with a carefully curated ambiance that we fell in love with.

Each dish brought a confluence of flavors that together made something special. The Organic Balsamic Chicken, the Black Truffle Ravioli, and the Nouilles de Cougettes were all delicious in every sense. We didn't enjoy the Garlic Shrimp Skewer (a bit undercooked for our liking) but it was plated very elegantly.

They were able to create an amazing mocktail using Yuzu and Raspberry puree that is one of the best we've had in Manhattan.

I look forward to being back, but would highly recommend this for a fine dining experience or a romantic date night.

We hit this place randomly but it was a huge surprise! The server fit us in at the bar (very lucky!). The vibe is super super good! Not too loud, very French romantic, well decorated. We were here for a drink but the food was also very surprisingly good! The price is also fair.

Will come again! Nice place for a french style date.
