Lucien - New York

Loud that it's hard to hear yourself think. So busy that you're on top of yourself and the table next to you. They take reservations but there's not a guarantee of being seated on time. The entrees and drinks are about what you expect for a restaurant and taste wise in manhattan A culturally historical hip place with a young crowd but it feels very overrated and just ok compared to all the other options in the east village LES for the price and hassle I found it

I had been wanting to try Lucien for a long time, and so when my sister was visiting it felt like a perfect opportunity to try it out!! Seafood was delicious fresh ? the grilled octopus amazing. Be prepared to spend upwards of $20 for a simple salad (arugula, parm cheese and fennel) and $17 for a soup. Pricey, but worth it.

Very busy. Music gets louder as the night goes one. Attractive crowd. Lots of energy. Definitely an it spot. Food average.

Great drinks and dishes. Very crowded and can?t even hear myself talking but you might bump into famous people which is why people seem to squeeze themselves having drinks. (V casual) Wine selection is reasonably priced.

My wife and I enjoyed this little downtown restaurant very much! The food is simple excellent.. we ordered Wild Salmon and Scallops and it was amazing.. one of my tops restaurants right now!!
