They "hit the right notes" at this "stalwart" Theater District "tribute to Josephine Baker", an "old-style Parisian" joint featuring "capable" French bistro fare from a "welcoming" staff; colorful "boudoir" decor and a pianist "tinkling the ivories" boost the "theatrical vibe."

A show before the show? Rococo bistro combines great fun with good food and nonstop music.

This is our go-to for pretheater on 42nd Street. The menu is consistent and very satisfying. The staff and kitchen knows how to get you to your show on time without feeling rushed. And the pianist is always great (especially if it's your birthday!)

The staff was so gracious and they really went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. They gave us a table that was quiet and cozy and since I have specific dietary restrictions the kitchen was so kind to modify the...

I highly recommend this restaurant. I felt like I entered into Paris. Loved the dim lighting and artwork. I ordered the chicken with side of truffle mashed potatoes and it was delectable. The best mashed...

When to Go

While the restaurant can be crowded and loud before theater, from 8pm to 10:30pm the setting is less frenetic and more romantic.
