Delicious French Restaurant and Wine Bar serves up great food with a great variety of quality wines & bubbles! Hands down the best wine list in Harlem. And I would say a quality bistro as well! So happy to have this quality wine bar that also is an excellent Restaurant in the central Harlem neighborhood. It is a great place to grab a glass of wine and enjoy happy hour, or grab some quality French food and enjoy an evening out! The service is excellent with a friendly neighborhood atmosphere. You walk in and instantly feel welcomed. Great for a local date night or a friend's gathering. The decor is rustic beautiful with a great attention for the simply beautiful details. Try this Restaurant in Harlem today!

Wine and food were curated with full intention and proper discernment, and I so appreciated that. In execution the lamb skewers were great but maybe a little overdone but sooo yummy with the pickled onions. I’m coming back. Thank you, Luke, who advised me on my pairing tonight.

Musette is the perfect day-to-night spot—by day, it’s a cozy coffee shop where I can actually get work done, and by night, it transforms into a gorgeous wine bar with the best vibe. The wine flights are a must, they are a great way to try multiple wines. The staff really know their stuff and are always ready with great recommendations. The pinchos, burrata, pastries, coffee and wine selection are a hit. Musette always delivers.

My favorite wine bar became a coffee shop and it’s as good as the bar. I am usually very picky and don’t like bitter coffee but the coffee here is amazing. The vibe is great, the pastries are too. I wish there was lunch food so I could stay longer.

A wine bar that’s a coffee shop during the day. The coffee is great, the wine bar is excellent too. Definitely a great spot to come hang out and perk up!

I’ve never been here in the evening hours, but stop in occasionally during the morning for coffee and a pastry. Always very welcoming and cozy, and often the owner can be seen chatting with other customers or making drinks.

Mussette in Harlem is a wine bar that truly understands the art of hospitality. From the moment I stepped in, the customer service was stellar—attentive without being overbearing. The Women’s History wine flight they offer is not just unique but also a testament to their commitment to inclusivity and celebration of diversity in the wine world. And let's talk about their charcuterie boards—absolutely sublime! The selection of cheeses, dried fruit and nuts paired perfectly with the wines we chose. But what truly sets Mussette apart is the warmth and genuine passion of the staff. They made our evening unforgettable, offering insights and recommendations that enhanced our experience. If you're in Harlem and looking for a cozy spot with exceptional wine and hospitality, Mussette is the place to be.
