Brigitte Reopens on Canal Street After Months of Remodeling
After months of promises, Brigitte finally reopened at the northeast corner of Ludlow and Canal Streets. It had been closed for renovations since last spring.
The messaging from HQ now – open for business “After a lift and a michelin-awarded team, we are now accepting reservations.”
Time will tell if the refreshed Brigitte is “something great,” as previously advertised.
Brigitte debuted at the northeast corner of Canal and Ludlow Streets in September 2017, forged from the ashes of Skal and Les Enfants Terribles before it. Most recently, the business obtained approval for an alteration to its liquor license to serve in the basement.
