Café Claude's curving zinc bar is straight out of Paris, as is the wait staff -- and if you speak the language, you can order your coq au vin in French.
Hidden on tiny Claude Lane between Union Square and the financial district, this atmospheric restaurant and bar is perfect for lunch, a quick glass of Cote du Rhone or a relaxing weekend jazz brunch.
You'll feel just like you're in 17th Arrondissement, minus the jet lag.
