Taking over the former Red and Black space on North 5th Street in Williamsburg, this is Juliette. It's going for bustling neighborhood French bistro to be sure: Chef-owner Thierry Rochard comes to the restaurant via Tartine and owner Alexandra Drozd last did scene-in-rapidly-gentrifying neighborhood at The Delancey. (To get to that elevated goldmine status, however, they're eventually going to have to expand to at least a continuous 16-hour day.) The food, which is getting good buzz is along standard bistro lines.
