    The Cafe Cluny is a West Village treasure still worthy of its reputation. It's a cozy establishment that specializes in French cuisine and you better make a reservation in advance; it's always packed. I love the French Onion soup, the burgers and frites--also the seafood is always fresh and well prepared. I live in the neighborhood and it is one of my good-to places. Bravo.
