When I first moved to NYC almost five years ago now, I landed an adorable apartment with my best friend in the Upper East Side. It didn’t take long for us to discover Cafe D’Alsace in all its glory. This quickly became one of our favorite French restaurants and one where we would take all our friends and family visiting to for an indulgent meal. I’ve never had a bad meal here nor bad service. It’s just a solid restaurant all around.
