718, the modern French restaurant on Ditmars is always a yummy staple in my book. And while this place could sometimes get pricey, the list of following weekly specials certainly addresses that. My favorite is the $9 tarte flambee night (pictured above) - these things are light, crumbly and slightly smokey if you get them with bacon, which I highly recommend.Monday - "Les Steak" choice of 1 for $14

L'entrecote - Grilled rib eye steak
La Bavette - Grilled skirt steak

All options are served with French fries and your choice of sauce: peppercorn, shallot, bernaise
