Le Veau Dor, New York, New York, French Restaurant Details

Food:

"Forgotten" French bistro classics work their "throwback" magic on loyal patrons of this circa-1937 Eastsider; though it's "had a full life" – and it shows – here's hoping it'll "continue forever."

Food:

My boyfriend and I have had many lunches here and love the old school ambiance of the decor, and the classic menu. Bistro standards. We enjoy chatting with Cathy when she has the time. One night we walked over from Lincoln Center hoping to make it in time for a late dinner, but we knew before we arrived that they would be closed. Enjoying the walk, we continued on, and when we arrived Cathy noticed us on the sidewalk and came out to say hello. I've talked to longtime regulars at the bar, and they tell me that they feel like family.

Food:

The owner Catherine Treboux is incredibly rude. I will never go back to this place again. She physically pushed me out of her restaurant when I politely inquired about a dog chained up for hours in freezing rain and snow outside her restaurant. Apparently, it must be hers because of the way she acted. I work for a prominent company in the area and frequently hold events at local restaurants, but will ensure that no one from our company ever goes here.

Food:

I went with an older friend who, upon his arrival, insisted on being moved to a different table. The server (while no spring chicken himself) orchestrated the move. When I attempted to help the server took what I had in my hands and said "I'll do it-- don't get me in trouble!" It was something I would imagine from a movie. The hostess (owner?), while cool, was friendly enough. It was a French experience all around. The food was EXTRAORDINARY! I cannot wait to visit Le Veau d'Or again!

Food:

Had booked a reservation there for lunch tomorrow. Tried to call today and ask if we cold increase our reservation to 5 from 4. the woman who answered the phone proceeded to yell at my employees and tell them this could not happen. She then hung up the phone on all 3 of us each time we call. In working for a prominent magazine in NYC and having the publisher hosting several influential people for a lunch meeting - I have NEVER been spoken to this way before. I will make sure that everyone I know knows not to come to this restaurant, and I highly suggest that you get someone to answer the phones who is not as unstable as this woman. i wish that I could have tried the food, but since I couldn't even get past the front door, I guess I will never know.

Food:

This is the standard of old school french and I hope it stays that way. Cathy is just great, very warm and welcoming. This is what resturants are about good food, welcoming atmosphere, and familiarly warm
