Manhattan has exactly one place on the list so far: Orsay, honored by Michelin Guide.

Rank 1. Orsay
Brasserie French
The art nouveau interior on Lexington feels genuinely transplanted from a Parisian side street, which is precisely the point of this French brasserie. The kitchen runs classic without apology: chicken liver mousse, artichaut vinaigrette, profiteroles. The room fills with Upper East Side regulars who know the staff by name and never glance at the menu. Unhurried and polished, it's the kind of brasserie that makes you want to order in courses and stay well past the reasonable hour.
