Casimir

Editorial Review

Northern cousin of the LES's Pink Pony. Cute but slightly played out French bistro with good-looking, charmingly disaffected staff. Popular with local restaurant owners, indie rockers, and expats gorging on the weak dollar. Pretty much by the numbers, but delish grass-fed steak even the Gauchos give props to. Excellent brunch in the croissant and Gauloises-friendly garden. Mirror-ball bathroom is absolutely distracting in a Studio 54 way.
