Club du Vin | April 24th⁠

Our CDV Spring Edition takes us to Burgundy!⁠

For one night we dedicate ourselves to this regal region, with endless pours of some of the most special wines, running alongside a gluttonous feast of off-menu, regional dishes served family style.⁠

Club du Vin was born from a desire to deep-dive regions, buy a ton of new wine and feast. Just remember - what happens in the Cellar, stays in the Cellar. ⁠

Grab your ticket on Resy.

What people say

Le Crocodile is a French restaurant that truly captures the essence of authentic French cuisine. The culinary team, led by Chefs Jake Leiber and Aidan O'Neal, serves up earnest French fare that will transport you straight to Paris. The setting is inspired by both Parisian and New York favorites, creating a unique and charming atmosphere.

One of the standout features of Le Crocodile is their commitment to using high-quality ingredients in all their dishes. From breakfast to dinner, every dish is made with care and attention to detail. Their sticky banana date pudding is a must-try dessert that will satisfy any sweet tooth. This super moist, steamed cake made with dates and molasses, topped with thick, glossy banana slices - served warm and doused in a rich, buttery toffee sauce - is simply divine.

In addition to their delicious food offerings, Le Crocodile also boasts an impressive wine list. One bottle that stands out is Les Pieds sur Terre, “Les Trouillots” Pinot Noir 2020 from Jura, France. This red fruited wine has a bright flavor profile that perfectly complements the restaurant's menu.

Overall, Le Crocodile on Wythe Avenue in New York City is a must-visit for anyone looking for an authentic French dining experience. With its charming atmosphere and delicious food offerings, it's no wonder why this neighborhood brasserie has quickly become a beloved spot for locals and tourists alike.
