A Theater District perennial favorite, Pigalle is a seamless collaboration between chef-owner Marc Orfaly and his wife and business partner, Kerri Foley. By combining Foley’s gracious, knowledgeable hospitality with Orfaly’s confident and innovative French-influenced cuisine, they’ve created what they refer to as a “mom and pop place of a higher order.”

With Parisian, Asian and Middle Eastern elements commingling on a menu that changes regularly to reflect what's freshest at the market, it’s no wonder that Orfaly and Pigalle have piles of accolades including a James Beard Award nomination and Food & Wine’s Top Ten Chefs.
