All of our hanger steaks were overdone. If you want medium ask for medium-rare. mussels were overcooked. Salads were standard. fries were good. gazpacho was not that good either.

Holder was an outstanding dining experience. The food felt authentically French. We ordered the hanger steak with shallots which was delicious, & the confit de canard was incredible, served on a bed of fresh arugula. The restaurant was also very child-friendly as they offered a booster seat for our baby & even rearranged tables to accommodate our stroller.

They have an excellent selection of wines, beers, & cocktails. What truly stood out, though, was the staff. We were greeted in both French & English, & the service was exceptionally attentive & kind throughout the meal. Our water glasses were constantly refilled, & every interaction felt warm & welcoming.

Easily some of the best restaurant service we've experienced in a long time!

Great restaurant, service was amazing & food was delicious. Had the French onion soup, duck confit, steak, pappardelle, & sherbet trio, all delicious!

The French onion soup was delicious. For the appetizer, we had the salmon tartare-it was very fresh & refreshing.
For my main, I ordered a steak medium rare, but it came a bit too rare. That said, the steak itself was flavorful, with a nicely seared, crispy exterior. The cut was thick, & paired with the salad, the portion was just right for me. My partner ordered the duck confit-it was tender, flavorful, & not gamey at all, making it very easy to enjoy.

We were too full to try dessert. The staff were friendly & the service was great.

Excellente serveuse & de bonne humeur. La présentation de mon assiette (une sorte de bavette/steak) était peu inspirante. Frites moyennes. Ca ne ressemblait pas à des frites maison. Belle ambiance.

I have been to Holder a few times over the years but it has gone downhill of late relying not on the quality of food & service but rather a constant stream of tourists.

In August 2025..... the steak was quite chewy & dry & the duck dry while portions had both shrunk & prices inflated. Service was slow too. Find somewhere else to go.

One of the few places we were lucky to get dinner reservations...which is both good & bad. The service was excellent...well trained & knowledgeable wait staff. Ours was Anabelle & she made some great suggestions, topped off our wine & checked in on us. The food on the other hand was ok...we 4 got the Hanger steak (was cooked medii but was still tough/, Lobster ravioli (no flavor, wouldn't reco), the duck confit was good & the veal Marsala steak was the best among the 4 dishes.

I would give our recent dining experience at Holder six stars if I could. The food was excellent. We shared the calamari & mozzarella di bufala to start. The braised beef cheek was outstanding - rich & flavourful. The grilled hanger steak was bistro perfection. But what made the evening was possibly the best service we've had ever. Professional of course. But friendly & kind & genuine. Joe made a great evening unforgettable. His food & wine suggestions were spot on. So if you're gonna go to Holder, ask for a table in Joe's section. It's worth it.

Atmosphere & service were excellent. I ordered a steak & it was way overdone. The soup tasted like Campbell. The chocolate mousse was excellent though.

I love this place. Always consistent, great French bistro with a versatile menu. Decor & ambiance make this place perfect for a date. I would highly recommend if you like French cusine. I would highly recommend the clams, steak, & french onion soup. The venue is not too loud or pretentious.
A very comfortable & well-managed place to eat.
