A tribute to the legendary Josephine Baker, the restaurant and its live music exude theatrical panache. This landmark jewel, celebrating its 25th anniversary on October 2, 2011, is intimate and romantic with its blue-tinceiling, red velvet walls and cavalcade of chandeliers.
The eclectic menu reinvents
the traditional cuisine of the French bistro in an explosion of tantalizing flavors.
Jean-Claude and Jarry Baker are your warm and welcoming hosts from
5 p.m. to midnight every day except Monday. Sunday brunch/dinner noon to 10 p.m..
“The dining room at Chez Josephine is unlike any other in New York. It’s a confluence of the famous and fashionable, the infamous and unsung – with every shade of skin on earth – and indeed you feel the magic of Chez Josephine.”
– Bryan Miller, Author and food critic.
