My Tuna Nicoise Salad was extremely under-seasoned. A crime! Doesn't give me a lot of incentive to go back. Steak Tartare was good, but not memorable.
The crowd was a little old for me and the place didn't feel as fun as I would have wanted, but definitely a major establishment type of place.
I haven't been to either place enough to really compare, but I think I like Balthazar better. Same food, I know...but if you had to choose.
Because I live down the street, Pastis offered the promise of a trendy neighborhood bistro. I imagined a mix of hip Jimmy Choo'd youngsters and an older, more formal west village crowd. In reality? A tourist trap/ meatpacking district desination. A sort of New York City food court stop on the Sex & the City tour bus.
The food? Steak frites were mediocre, the fries were cold (MAJOR no no for Frieds), the house wine was bitter, the service was sloppy, I couldn't hear myself think.
With restaurants like this, I'm hiking in my Choos to a different neighborhood.
