    Food was impeccable and excellent service. Cocktails were both tasty and beautiful. Had the chimichurri steak salad, great flavours and a large size dinner salad with well cooked steak. Will definitely return!

    Another great experience at 12 Bistro. My fresh oysters as an appetizer were delicious. The main dishes of Fish and Chips and Chicken fingers were large portions, hot and tasty. Always a favorite of ours in Whitby.

    Servers were great, especially the busgirl. The food was disappointing. The special menu was not shared ahead of the evening and did not match the menu from a couple of years ago that was shared on facebook. 4 of the 5 entree options contained seafood leaving one in my group with only one option. I would not have booked if I had known that and because overall the menu did not live up to a special New Year's Eve meal.
