About Lucien

Watch Lucien on TikTok

Lucien is a French spot in East Village, and an East Village staple with an intentionally shabby aesthetic. Regulars point to the steak au poivre and the martini. Expect an upper-mid-range bill. It was picked from The Infatuation's See & Be Seen guide, so it is open and worth the trip.
