Midtown · $$$ · American restaurant · French restaurant

This isn't your grandmother's French bistro—Monterey merges Gallic sophistication with playful American flair in a space that feels both timeless and utterly now. The staff moves with the grace of pros who actually want you to have fun, and the wine list reads like a love letter to Europe. Order the duck—it's the kind of dish that makes you understand why people get romantic over food.
