About this business
Editorial fromThe East Village is home to scads of bistros, and one of the standouts is Casimir, a hangout for young French expats. The waiters will be unimpressed with your high school francais, so don't even bother trying. Just ask for your…

nice place – the food is good and inexpensive. the wait staff was helpful. the atmosphere is nice. maybe one too many of the beautiful people there.
Try it! – If you want to try french food, this is a cheap place with a nice ambiance. Romantic garden at the back.
WHAT HAPPENED? – i went when it first opened years ago and it was GREAT..been there recently and it's horrible-the food was so blah..the french onion soup was soooooo salty and i told the waitress and she just stood there with this look like:"well..what do you want me to do about this?" not mean or anything but hello! why don't you take it away and offer me another one or something else.But i also seem to have been disturbing her intimate/physical relationship with her male friend who was seated at the next table outside in ... read more
great nights – The food is fresh and delicious. The wine, wonderful. Casimir is a great getaway on the east side. Fun atmoshpere for small parties. Have dinner and stay for drinks. This is one of our favorites in the winter.
Wonderful Brunch – I really recommend coming here for brunch. The omlettes and french toast were to die for. And you can't beat $4 profiterole rolls. The ambience was lovely, like a corner french bistro with a Moroccan touch. I see that some others reviewers were complaining about bad service, but I have to say that our service was very nice and attentive, with no signs of the rude management. So my advice is come for brunch. The added bonus: it's quiet and you'll be seated right away!
consistently bad – I must admit, though I have never been the object of it, I have observed consistently rude (sometimes even appaling) behavior mostly from management. These guys don't care about their customers. I don't even think they care that much about the food. It's about getting your money people! It's hip and cool and even though they have more attitude than all the bistros in NYC combined it's still scarily popular! And the food isn't even that great.
Don't Miss the Filet Mignon – Medium rare, tender, peppercorn sauce, and only $16. I come back for it (or the salmon) about once a month. Great ambience. Last night I brought friends from out of town and all of our entrees were delicious. Our waitress was exceptionally friendly and attentive.
Simply PATHETIC...Pay for ABUSE? – This place is WAY OVER. Why pay to be ABUSED? They seem to really be into degrading their customers. Someone should remind them that they are in the SERVICE industry. Maybe they think they 'obnoxious' is in? Who knows, who cares. If you want the real thing with real service, try Le Gamin on 5th or Belmondo's across the street, but do yourself a favor, don't waste your time or money at Casimir. So many other places in the neighborhood are so much more deserving. And authentic.
Astounding continued – The clincher was when my friend mentioned to the manager that we had a problem, before even mentioning what it was, he said "let me guess; you didn't eat your entire meal and don't think you should have to pay for the whole thing". What??! When she mentioned the above problems (and left out the fact that our waitress was rude and condescending), he told her she didn't know what she was talking about. As we were leaving he started to berate another guest in our group, saying things like "do you ever eat... read more
