It’s good to come back for seconds: Alain Ducasse follows up his rousingly received Adour with this U.S. outpost of his charming Parisian bistro, which takes residence at the old La Côte Basque space and echoes that late Midtown spot’s joie de vivre (how’s that for a second coming?). Ducasse and executive chef Sébastien Rondier mine the original Benoit’s historic recipes (it’s been around since 1912) for classics like steak au poivre with pommes soufflées, and escargots laced with parsley butter and garlic, which you won’t have any trouble pairing with any of the 200 French and American wines. Déjà vu, mon chou? Wait’ll you get a load of the digs, which evokes the original Benoit—red-velvet banquettes, mirrors, wood paneling—while retaining touches from the old La Côte Basque, like sconces and a chandelier.
