Founded by the famous trio Mario Carbone, Rich Torrisi e Jeff Zalaznick, heads of the Major Food Group (group of 6 restaurants in NY), the Dirty French gathers, since its inauguration last september, a super cool gang in Lower East Side of Manhattan.

The restaurant mixes the classic french cuisine with modern techniques from other american states, as New Orleans, and some places spread around the world, as Africa and Caribbean, with clear french influence, plus stronger and edgier flavours!
The oyster appetizers and the fresh breads with herbs are incredible, especially considering that a chief works exclusively to prepare them!
The most asked and commented dish of the restaurant is the “Chicken for Two”. Even the harsher critics in town have left a lot of compliments. For those who like ducks, “Duck à L’Orange” is also a great call. And the meat “Cote de Boeuf”, one of the most expensive dishes, was a hot topic at Dirty French’s opening.
The wine menu is very eclectic and offer wines from different price ranges, the music is very good, as is the service and the atmosphere itself, which is beautiful! At the end of the day, the bill may come a little high, but it’s worth the visit!
Important: The restaurant asks for customers to make reservations a month before the visit, so schedule yours for the time you’ll be in New York!
