Papillon 25

[erico]

Anybody been? In the space formerly occupied by Niecy's.

When they first opened I called to find out what kind of menu they had. Whoever answered the phone told me "we have chicken, fish and stuff like veal parmigiana." Haven't gotten there! Also, they have a liquor license.

Papillon is a joint venture between the liquor store nextdoor and Yannick, who

previously ran a small (5-7 table) BYO restaurant and catering place down the street. Her food there was French/Cajun/ California cuisine and seemingly known by very few. We could always get a table and her cooking was very good.

The new restaurant is much larger and very nicely appointed. The staff is

professional and the expanded menu retains Yankck's unique style. Prices have risen and BYO is but a memory. The wine list is extensive and interestingly has

more reds listed for $25 than usually seen. Dining there makes a pleasant night

out.

Emmaline--Welcome to eGullet. Can you tell us some of the menu items at Papillon 25?

There's a Papillon in Nutley, too - that's what i thought this thread was about! Has anyone been to the place in Nutley? If so, what do you think?

You may get more info if you post Papillon in Nutley on a separate thread.
