I love this cute French restaurant on the UES. I discovered it over the summer 2023 and have already returned 3 times! Very cozy atmosphere and great food. I recommend their steak frites, Black Angus burger, and their crepes au nutella.
This place was so fun to visit! I really like the atmosphere inside as it’s dim lit and romantic. It’s perfect for a date night. I decided to sit outside as it was a nice day. Partly cloudy, but tentative was great. I got the tartare with fries and a drink and for desert the apple tart with ice cream and an espresso martini. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable about drink pairings. Perfect place for a special occasion, getting drinks with friends or a date night.
Ordered to pick up for lunch. Nice place. Indoor and outdoor seating. I had a Classic Black Angus Burger and a vegetable soup.
The soup was light, slightly spicy with a nice hint of celery.
The burger was delicious. Take a moment to appreciate the size of the patty. Cooked perfectly. Great selection of cheeses and toppings for the burger. I added guacamole. Fries was good and crunchy. Everything was packed neatly, and I had a little surprise of mini cookies, which were tasty. Thank you.
Can't wait to go back. The menu looks amazing.
I came here for a late weekend lunch and had the croque monsieur. The interior of the restaurant has that charming, classic French brasserie look, and there are a few seats at the bar that are perfect for enjoying a meal alone and some fresh air from the open windows. Despite how the area is a bit of a tourist zone, Match 65 manages to retain the feeling of a neighborhood establishment. The servers were very kind and attentive. I also like how they have branded matchboxes to match their name (ha, get it). My only complaint is that my dish was very heavy on the salt, and it was hard to finish because of that.
Delicious Chicken Romano special served with tender baby asparagus Au gratin. Perfect. Had foie gras to start. Melt in the mouth decadence. Ate outside. But nice atmosphere inside. Reminds me of Paris so much.
Chanced upon this delightful French brasserie. The care taken to create a French atmosphere is seen in the interiors where the names of French drinks are found on the lamps/ the hostesses are french and even the VS mustard accompanying the pate was a blast of true blue french cuisine.
Carbonara was simply amazing, one of the best ones I ever had. It is a must try. We got truffle fries with steak frites and fries were great, although I didn’t think steak was great just because I usually like my steak frites with some sauce on it. Caesar salad was also alright, if you love it get it. We also got profiteroles that came with ice cream, loved that too. Two of us shared a red wine carafe and paid 65$ pp, our friend who didn’t join to wine paid 47$

Easy walking distance from Central Park. Match hit the spot. I had a perfect Salad Nicoise, and my companion had a yummy tuna tartar and some pate. Great cucumber Martini!! We asked for the recipe and they gave it to us!!
Excellent. No wonder it was so bustling at noon! Friendly service, perfectly made cocktails, fried to perfection fries, sizzling generous escargot and absolutely divine steak tartare. Feels like Paris for a moment.
I love that place! The steak frites was delicious and it was a great time to go during the France vs England World Cup game. The mood was warm and energetic. I had my dog too, so they were extremely accommodating and offered him water. They didn’t mind him sitting inside. Thank you for having us.
Very good food and great service. Nice little French bistro which has an authentic French flair. The steak frites was tender, juicy and cooked perfectly. Highly recommend the escargot too which is cooked to perfection. And great music.
One of the best places to dine in If your looking for French cuisine
Prime Steak Tartare, Onions soup & Niçoise salad were delicious
The waitress was welcoming but the food a takes longer time than usual, it was worth the waiting
We were in NYC for girls weekend and wanted a nice sit down meal. Match was exactly what we were looking for and so much more. Service -Food-Atmosphere were all incredible! We had calamari, escargot, duroc chops, creme brulee. All delicious!!
I loved my dinner here!
Very authentic French food, and the service was excellent.
Bonus points for the Christmas decorations! They looked beautiful.
