For the first time since Balthazar opened in 1997, you can enjoy steak frites and other house classics alfresco in a row of burgundy tents in the street.

It will be lunch only at first \u2013 Monday-Friday, noon to 4 p.m. (reservations taken) and Saturday and Sunday brunch 9:30 a.m-4 p.m. (no reservations, seating is first come, first serve).
