La Compagnie des Vins Surnaturels

Disclaimer: This is probably a biased review, since I’m also critiquing my brother’s pop-up at this restaurant. Review Regarding the pop-up by The Bronx Pit: Delicious sauce. Great smoked flavor! If La Compagnie hosts another Bronx Pit BBQ Night I would suggest they go heavy on the red wines. The flavors of this bbq are robust. My favorite? Definitely the ribs. They were delish. Also, the greens were good! Oh and the hot link was too. Review Re: La Compagnie’s full experience: the food at this restaurant is heavy! Delicious, but heavy!! The shrimp in the red butter sauce and the duck confit are amazing. The confit was even good cold the next day as left overs! The tartar over the marrow was really good. Super rich. Couldn’t eat all of it. The fig and arugula salad was light and refreshing but the figs themselves were not very flavorful. Also, the dressing was a bit salty. I loved the burrata with the endive!!!! That was a great starter. They also had an amazing cheddar. The pasta with calamari was standard to me, the others in my party absolutely loved it. This place hits you over the head with flavor in everything EXCEPT THE WINE. I am not a wine person, but when I have it I like a full bodied wine. The Pinot noir was pretty good. All in all a great experience. With great food. Good energy. Seriously tho, I’d rather have a less expensive, more rounded out, and full bodied red than anything I tasted on either night I went. The sparkling white I was had was nice, but I had it with ribs so it wasn’t strong enough to counter the rib flavor. Tables are too small.

This was such an experience! Last night, I went here to celebrate a friend’s birthday and I truly enjoyed myself. The atmosphere was intimate and the waiter (I didn’t get his name) was so attentive to our needs especially when suggesting wines for the table. However, I have some minor complaints with the menu. It didn’t have much vegetarian options although, the grilled cheese with mushrooms and tomato jam was a hit! I was very opposed to this because I HATE mushrooms but I really enjoyed, REALLY enjoyed this sandwich - thanks to the waiter. This place has small bites so don’t expect a full meal. Please visit this place if you want to impress your date or just catch up with a friend.

I went there on a Sunday. It was crowded but managed to get seats at the bar. The wine selection was ‘ok’, not great but the place and the service were really good, so that makes up for it.
