Our food and service was great. We had the salmon, the Mediterranean platter and the short rib. All were excellent. Shared the caramel popcorn sundae for dessert.

We were pleased to have a great dinner and ambiance at B19 this time, for our anniversary. Our previous experience was somewhat disappointing but seems to have been a one off. We do request more vegetarian options on the menu.

The last three times we have tried Bistro19, it’s been a disappointment. I’m not sure what happened as it used to be our favorite. Menu rarely changes but the food quality appears less. Waitress seemed short and abrupt. It’ll be a long time before we revisit.

Bistro 19 is always great. We love going here but can not get last minute reservations for a weekend. This time we went on a Monday night and reserved ahead of time. They were busy but not full. Service was great as well as food.

We usually love coming for dinner and always have a great experience. We went for brunch the other day and 2 out of 4 orders were prepared incorrectly.

Servers were a little slow and scattered. We were there for over an hour before we received our meal. However, all of our food was delicious when it arrived. Drinks were great too!
