  1. We came here for brunch and loved the food, although service was not quite up to par.

    The restaurant was much smaller than I was expecting but spacing was good so we didn't feel cramped.  It felt like it caters to an older crowd as my fiancé and I were the youngest ones there by quite a few years.

    The brunch menu had a number of great choices, including eggs with different types of meats (homemade sausage; duck breast; short rib; pork belly) and some other delicious-sounding options.  I loved the lobster omelet I ordered, and everyone else I cam with also very much enjoyed their meal.  The French fries were crispy, portions were large, and the bloody mary was quite good as well.

    A nice touch was the complimentary "cinnamon rolls" they gave us in the beginning.  They were mini, bite-sized things but while the restaurant called them cinnamon rolls, they're actually more like a mini pain au raisin.  They were served warm and had a sweet, buttery flavor.

    Service was not the best and I felt like a little training would do a lot of good.  While it was on the slow side, what really struck us was the waiter's etiquette – several times, he served my fiancé a drink/food from my side of the table, reaching out in front of me and over my food, rather than walking a couple steps to his side to set down his glass/plate.

  2. I came here last night with my boyfriend. It's a nice place in park slope. We ordered a bottle of Sangiovese wine. For appetizers, we ordered crab cakes and a cheese plate which we sampled 3 different imported cheeses. The waitress was very nice, she helped us select three cheeses that paired well together. The crab cakes were delicious. All the cheeses we selected were also delicious. For dinner I ordered beef tenderloin medium rare with potatoes and cream of spinach. The meat was cooked perfectly and it was very tender. My boyfriend ordered the lamb shank which was served over polenta and kale. It was very good, the meat came right of the bone, as it should. For dessert we had mini doughnuts and coffee creme brûlée. The doughnuts were warm, it was perfect. Overall, I liked soigné and their menu and will be returning.

  3. One of the best dishes I ever ate in my life was simply seared foie gras (real deal, none of those pate things), prepared in front of me by old lady in a heart of Paris Jewish neighborhood. It was in a tiny kitchen – and I was never able to find it again. It was magical – and just like magic, that place *poof!* disappeared. I been searching for it for years….
    …now I am pretty much convinced it been transported to Brooklyn, and set on the corner of 6th & 12th.
    Why, you say? Foie Gras is the proof.

    Yes, here it is once again, best dish I ever ate – perfectly seared, wholesome and delightfully rich foie gras, freshly prepared just for me. Little green mâche on top, and pears to garnish – it took me back to old lady kitchen and wonders of french home cooking… Moments like this make your whole day better, no matter what. One simple bite, you close your eyes, and let your taste buds have a most exquisite time ever.

    Beside the foie gras, menu is extensive and just as good. Here are few I've tried and loved: perfectly roasted beets, mouth-watering bone marrow, delicious sweet potato agnolotti and creamy dreamy wild mushroom risotto.
    The amuse bouche cheesy breads they start you with – sooo good too!

    Prix Fixe menu here are excellent options – both $30 and $45 lists are very good value, and well put together.
    They also have interesting cocktail menu – knowing my love for pisco & mezcal, I am in haven. And, it is a wine bar – wine flights are available, whole list is exciting.

    Service is quick, seating is aplenty – both at the bar or tables, plus, they do take open table reservations.

    Yes, I am convinced, it is magical.

  4. Ack, what a disappointment.  I was pretty excited to finally come try this place and after all the hype my dish was just meh.  Fried Chicken and Waffles… my favorite thing for brunch… burnt to a crisp.  Look at the picture…. perfectly plated… a delicious waffle with good honey and good butter, and a completely burnt piece of chicken.

    I could have cried…

  5. Cute and cozy place for dinner! We had an engagement party dinner for my friend and the place was wonderful. The food was amazing. We had a pre-fix menu for the party and everything was superb. I ordered the crispy pork belly for apps and the braised beef short rib for the entrée. They were both excellent in their own ways. First, you can never go wrong with pork belly. It was almost like eating a breakfast sandwich because it's topped with sunnyside eggs. Amazing! Second, the braised beef short rib was delicious and tender. I love that they married it with red wine risotto.  However, what really topped it all off was the dessert. For dessert, it was a choice of either Coffee and Doughnuts or a chocolate flourless tore cake. Wisely, I chose Coffee and Doughnuts because not often do you get doughnuts as a choice for dessert.  I guess the surprise was the "Coffee" part because I didn't read the description so I assume it was actually coffee. But it was Coffee crème brulee, which is one of the most amazing thing I ever had.  I normally like regular crème brulee but after this, I can never go back to regular. I need Coffee crème brulee everywhere!

  6. I am so happy I found this place on yelp. Everything was exceptional from the service to the food.
    I had a 30 birthday dinner with my family here, very low key, immediately family
    Only and I can't wait to come back!
    We shared the artichoke Frito, risotto fritters, and the bone marrow custard. The custard was the best of them all.
    For my main I had the tuna, I try not
    To finish everything on my plate but I devoured this. My family had the duck, the short rib and the snapper special. No one had any food left on the plate!!!
    I had a couple wine flights and they were generous pours and great variety.
    The desserts are made fresh, we have some
    Nut allergies and they were able to accommodate that. I had a cheese plate- it was awesome. Savory not sweet for me
    But everyone loved the chocolate cake, and the cheesecake.
    Bryan was our sever and he was AMAZING!!!! Very attentive, pleasant and knowledgable.

  7. I had a very lovely, very special, meal here with my fiancé. I'm already planning a special occassion to come back.

    While my fiancé was playing games at our friends house early Saturday evening, I was scoping OpenTable to find a nice spot to have some dinner with my love. Looking at Soigne's menu, I knew I couldn't pass it up. I tapped my fiancé on the shoulder, got a thumbs up, and made a reservation for 9:15.

    We arrived early but after a brief wait were able to be seated 30 minutes before our reservation. The ambience is quite romantic. Dimmed lights, soft music, candles on every table; it's the kind of place you have a special occasion dinner.

    Our waitress was polite and offered many recommendations, but was so quiet I could barely hear her. I get that it was part of the experience but she needed to speak up.

    We started with a rosé and a chianti. Both were decent. I much preferred the rosé which was surprising since I often prefer rich red wines.

    We were given the complimentary potato soup and gruyere puffs which were great. I loved the warm puff with the cold soup.

    For appetizers we went with the charcuterie, which consisted of paté and duck rillets, both of which were good but definitely not as impressive as the foie gras over pain perdue and it was incredible. The bread was so amazing, caramelized on the outside and custard like on the inside with perfectly seared  (and a generous portion) foie gras with a peppery arugula salad on top. It was perfect.

    I ordered a second glass of wine due to the expansive wine list and the fact that I wanted a nice rich red wine to pair with my entree. Hob nob pinot noir AKA my new favorite red wine.

    I was struggling to pick an entree because I wanted like 5 different ones. The menu is great and has a ton of variety. My fiancé ordered the venison with parsnip puree, candied chestnuts, and spaghetti squash. He loved it. The meat was perfectly cooked and he loved all of the accompaniments. As for me, I went with the tenderloin of beef with chantarelles, marrow roasted potatoes, creamed sunchoke and spinach, and a truffled Madeira wine sauce. I ordered it rare and the dish was almost perfect. They oversalted the sunchoke and spinach which was a shame because the texture was perfect and everything was hot and delicious. The potatoes were addicting. We also decided to split the truffle fries. The entire restaurant smelled like truffles when we walked in so it was necessary that we ordered these. They were the best fries I've ever had. Not overly greasy, no overpowering truffle flavor, and perfectly cooked.

    For dessert we split the chocolate tart with salted caramel and bruleéd bananas. It was a little too rich for my blood but it tasted good nonetheless. As they brought the check over they brought over small chocolate and sea salt cookies that were amazing. If I'd known we'd receive that I'm not sure we would have needed dessert.

    Service was on the slow side. We were in the restaurant for over 2 hours, but I didn't mind because I had good company. It was so slow our waitress left before we did though. A little odd. Oh well. Can't wait to come back. I need to come back and get the pork chop and a million other things!

  8. Came for the Sunday (also available on Weds and Thurs) $30-3 course prix fixe but ordered from the regular menu instead.

    Complimentary potato soup and cheese bread was delicious way to start the meal!

    Mushroom salad was ok, a little too much goat cheese for my taste. Pan seared foie gras served with pain perdu that tasted like a pancake-delish!

    Pan seared scallops cooked perfectly and the vanilla flavor came through. Fiancé only semi enjoyed his tuna.

    Coffee and donuts dessert was good. Donuts served fresh and warm. Coffee creme brûlée had nice and think sugar coating, texture inside was inconsistent.

    Complimentary chocolate and salted caramel petit four was nice ending.

    Service was excellent!  Can't wait to come back for brunch and more dinner!
