Part of We All Gotta Eat

Nestled in a charming Upper East Side townhouse, Chez Fifi invites guests into a refined and inviting atmosphere with a bistro inspired menu, a salon featuring innovative cocktails, and wines sourced from around the globe.

Executive Chef Zack Zeidman offers an a la carte menu that riffs on Parisian bistro classics with a nod to coastal northern Spain. A meal begins with foie gras terrine maison, deviled crab baked San Sebastian style, clam risotto, Escargots a la Bourgignonne, and steak tartare.

Plats Principaux such as the Poulet Rôti with foie gras jus, Filet mignon au poivre, and wild Dover Sole a la plancha are all in great company with a Pommes Fifi for the table. For dessert, classics such as Mousse au Chocolat and Baba au Rhum offer a little something sweet.

The beverage program, curated by Master Mixologist Yumi Nemoto, features an innovative martini menu including an umami-packed “Blue Cheese” with Roquefort-washed vodka, sake and olive brine, and a refreshingly complex “Tomato” featuring tomato liqueur, tomato water, rosemary and basil oil.
