Eastern European cuisine reigns supreme in the neighborhood where Greek, French and Italian restaurants are everywhere. If you had a craving for a more rustic bistro fare, you would have been out of luck until L’Artiste opened its doors.
L’Artiste is a quaint, casual bistro exemplifying sophistication and artistry. The cheery hodgepodge of modern and traditional décor is unique. Vintage singer sewing machines, a modern Eiffel Tower mural, and classic bistro lamps exist in the same space. At first glance, it may seem a little disjointed. But, the eclectic décor works wonderfully.
Most of the main dishes are protein-based. However, they do serve vegetarian platters to further excite the palate. Juicy seared duck breast and earthy sides of spaghetti squash are served with orange beurre blanc sauce that gives the dish that extra hint of sophistication. For something more traditional with a modern twist, try the roast chicken cordon bleu with wonderfully crisp skin and delicious stuffing.
This French eatery boasts fabulous desserts. Be sure to save room for flaky fig tarts, coffee panna cotta and profiteroles with vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
This restaurant has proven to be a worthy adversary when it comes to French food that’s simply magnifique! The L’Artiste restaurant can be found just minutes from Glendale in Astoria, NY.
