Café Claude Review

If you think this place looks like it could be in Paris, you're right. Nearly everything, from the zinc bar and the banquettes to the light fixtures and cinema posters, was shipped from a defunct café in the City of Light to this atmospheric downtown alley. Order a croque monsieur or niçoise salad at lunchtime. The francophone kitchen sends out even more French staples for dinner, like escargots, steak tartare, coquilles Saint-Jacques, and roast lamb. Grab a table outdoors (heat lamps keep you warm on cool nights) and pretend you are in Paris at a sidewalk café. Stop by Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights to enjoy live jazz along with your meal.
