"Corny name aside (Peter Rabbit may be regarded as a purely English invention), Bistro Pierre Lapin is a newish West Village restaurant that seems transplanted from the Upper East Side in the 1960s, via Harold Moore, the chef responsible for what used to be Harold’s Meat and Three, now just Harold’s. This restaurant has a menu twice as long as that of the usual West Village French bistro, with a few playful modern twists. A pork chop done shake and bake style has a prodigious amount of juicy flesh, while the matzo ball soup that’s a salute to the Lower East Side is improved with flecks of black truffle in a broth damn near perfect. Glasses of wine are expensive, but the pour is good." - Eater Staff
