Editorial Review for CamaJe Bistro – by Paul Adams
The Scene
A small, 10-table room with deep red walls and a quaint, pleasant bistro feel. The diners are primarily locals, despite the restaurant's proximity to Bleecker Street's tourist strip. Customers should be prepared to spend a long time over dinner: The small staff is friendly but painfully slow.
The Food
Expect a host of American-French dishes. Crepes are done well, and sandwiches on Pullman bread--with fillings that include delicious, slightly charred kielbasa, shrimp salad and hanger steak--make a quick and inexpensive alternative to the regular entrees. The chef's concepts are generally good, but ingredients can be sub-par: Both the wan scallops, laid in a tomato broth over a single ribbon of pappardelle, and the dryish rib lamb chops in a tasty tomato confit with green fava beans are disappointing. For a lighter meal, there are several variations on the goat cheese salad theme.

I like Camaje for the food, atmosphere and overall open, Village atmosphere. I've been there several times with my friends and we always have a good time. The food is delicious and the service is terrific. Highly Recommended!

We made dinner reservations early in the week for 6 o'clock on Sat. night. They called on Saturday - a few hours before our reservation - and said that they made a mistake in the reservation book and they were canceling our reservation! Instead of apologizing profusely and offering another day/time with a free drink/appetizer to compensate for their mistake, the general attitude was basically, "yeah, we messed up, but too bad!!"
