    Love this place! It’s easy to see why they were packed with customers last night. Fresh and high quality food, great and attentive service, super delicious meals, and a dessert called the napoleon that is unreal. This place is a gem. Can’t wait to come back in a few weeks.

    We have been to brunch many a time at BC Bistro and love it, but this was our first time there for dinner and on Valentine’s Day! We have heard that on Valentine’s Day many restaurants are overly crowded and rushed along, however, this was not the case at BC Bistro! We were greeted with smiles and met with kindness from all the staff. Our waiter was excellent and let us take our time to enjoy our evening out of dinner and drinks. The food was absolutely delicious and the ambiance was wonderful! BC Bistro really made our Valentine’s Day so special! ❤️ We will definitely be coming back soon!

    Had dinner at Alessandro’s last night to celebrate Valentine’s Day. I’d been wanting to eat here for a long time and we had a great time. The food was fantastic and the service was excellent. My husband is hard to please when it comes to really good Italian food and he was very impressed. Looking forward to enjoying many more meals there.
