"Despite its central West Village location, Le Baratin isn't a very high-profile place. It has a lot of regulars, so people obviously know about this charming little bistro, but it doesn’t get as hectic as nearby spots like Rosemary’s and American Bar. So if you want to impress someone who thinks they know every good restaurant in the neighborhood, bring them here for some well-dressed steak tartare and intensely garlicky escargot. The little space is very casual, with mismatched chairs, chipped wooden tables, and an interesting assortment of decor that includes sports jerseys, empty wine bottles, and a saddle." - bryan kim, willa moore, neha talreja, sonal shah, will hartman
