NYC|Amelie 🥂 A Cozy French Bistro Just Steps from NYU
Located within a 5-minute walk from NYU, this unassuming spot blends American comfort with French soul—and during Happy Hour, it’s an absolute steal! Expect generous portions, a lively international crowd, and classic bistro dishes with a few pleasant surprises. 🥖 Warm Bread in a Cloth Bag Softer than expected—not your typical tough baguette! Perfect for dipping into sauces. 🦪 Moules-frites Tiny mussels, but the fries? Incredible! Thin, crispy, and gone in minutes. 🥓 Beef Tartare on Baguette Salty, savory beef on very hard bread. Not my favorite, but for $10 during Happy Hour? Can’t complain too much. 🐙 Grilled Octopus Tender inside, crispy outside—well-cooked and flavorful, though the portion’s a bit small. 🥩 Steak Frites A generous, tender steak with those amazing fries again. Could use more seasoning, but solid for the price. 🍮 Passion Fruit Crème Brûlée The star! Creamy, fragrant, with a crisp caramel top and a hint of passion fruit. A must-order! Go during Happy Hour for great value and a relaxed, neighborhood vibe. Ideal for students, dates, or a casual night out. 💵 Around $40–$50 per person #AmelieNYC #FrenchBistro #NYUEats #HappyHourDeals #NYCOnABudget
