Friday, October 2, 2026, 9:00 PM - 12:00 AM · Chez Josephine, Midtown, New York City
Chez Josephine marks 40 years with a Parisian-themed soirée featuring live performances by Sam Dubin, Luka Marinkovic, and Amber Lyons. The party starts at 5pm and runs late, with reservations highly encouraged.
Red velvet walls, floor-to-ceiling Josephine Baker murals, and a nightly pianist set a mood the menu fully commits to. Coq au vin, steak frites, moules marinière. Done straight, done right, no detours. The pre-theater crowd fills it early; the later tables settle in and linger far longer than they meant to.
Pommes frites, torpedo shallot jus. The classic done right.
Classic French stew: chicken, lardons, mushrooms, red wine. Properly done.
Steamed mussels in white wine, tomato, herbs, garlic with pommes frites
