    Great food, horrible service. Our server was not attentive nor friendly. Gave us the bill without asking if we wanted dessert. Disappointing considering we were celebrating a special occasion.

    Hi Vanessa, We are truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience and thank you for making us aware of the events of your experience. Your feedback is extremely valuable, and we deeply apologize for falling so short of your expectations. It's disheartening to hear that the service did not meet your standards and that there were issues with the quality of warmth and service. I will be sure to address this feedback with my team so that we can strive to improve, as this is not the standard we seek to provide at Bridgette Bar. If you would be willing to return for a redo experience, I would love to arrange that for you. Once again, thank you for letting us know and I hope to hear from you so that we may rectify your experience! Sincerely, Victoria

    We were seated in an area that was high traffic and one member of our party was jostled around as soon as we were seated. To rectify this, we moved our table (and then I was jostled around during the dinner). Instead of asking us why we moved the table, we were rudely told to move our table back, which we did not appreciate. The wait staff could’ve moved our table in such a way that they then didn’t need to go behind me but in making shortcuts for the staff, they made our dining experience unpleasant.

    Hi Linda, I apologize that your experience at Bridgette Bar this week failed in so many ways to deliver the quality of warmth and hospitality that we strive for. Your feedback here has raised many concerns regarding both our service and execution, and most concerningly, our ability as a team to create an environment that is welcoming to all individuals. As with all feedback, we will treat this as an opportunity to assess ways in which we can improve. Finally, I would like to extend an invitation to host you again in future. Should you ever wish to take us up on the offer you can reach out to me directly and I will handle details of the reservation. Thank you again for taking the time to provide feedback! Sincerely, Victoria

    Food was good. Service was subpar. Did not live up to the hype for me.
    Bridgette BarResponded 2 days ago
    Hi Tina, I appreciate you providing us with your feedback about your experience! We value your feedback and I am thankful that you brought this to my attention. I would like to sincerely apologize for the experience you had on Friday. I will be speaking with the server to make sure we learn from the experience and take steps so it does not happen again. We hold ourselves to a higher quality of service standards than you received on Friday and are truly sorry we did not live up to it last week. I would love to invite you for a redo, if you would be willing to return. I'd be happy to personally arrange it for you. Please email me directly next time you would like to dine with us. I will make sure your experience truly delivers what Bridgette Bar has to offer. Sincerely, Victoria

    Bridgette Bar has somehow managed to pair an intimidate dinner party feeling with an exclusive experience, it feels a little like a fancy dinner party hosted at a friends, but with a menu and cocktail selection that could only be accomplished by professionals. Each plate had a special, delicious twist and the t-bone steak was perfection.
