Cafe Gitane

"Specializing in simple salads, sandwiches, and a selection of hot mains, this French-Moroccan café draws models and model-gazers to its rather cramped NoLIta location."

"The food's a match for the "trendy vibe" at these "fashionable" French-Moroccan lairs where "affordable" bites like "fabulous" couscous are dispensed by a "gorgeous" staff." Full review

"Europhile wet dream. Parisian café is at its prime in the afternoon, catch a table if you can."

"It looks a little like the South of France crossed with South Beach, but Cafe Gitane is pure Downtown." Full review

"If you can brave the long lines of Sigerson Morrison addicts and mustachioed artistes, you’ll find decent French-Moroccan food at this virtual elder statesman of cute Nolita hipster hangouts."

"Lingerers are welcome at this Parisian-style café, whether they’re outside smoking and sipping lattes or inside gossiping over salmon tartare in the cool blue- and orange-painted space." Full review

"Cafe Gitane is the epitome of the “it” downtown cafe – a quintessential Nolita eatery and place to See And Be Seen that so many places try (and fail) to replicate." Full review

"Worth the wait. Delicious food, beautiful people."

"African- and French-inspired dishes, such as couscous with red peppers and raisins, pomegranate glazed salmon fillet and spicy organic meatballs, are served with a view of the Hudson River." Full review
