    What a great little find! The service was fantastic. And lunch was wonderful! I had the beet, citrus, goat cheese salad, and the pork belly, peach flatbread. Neither one disappointed. I went outside of the box ordering both of these. My pallet was very happy! My friend had the crab melt. It seemed to be a very generous portion and they did use real crab. I had a taste of it as and it was fantastic too! She also had the French onion soup and raved about how tasty the broth was. I would definitely dine here again. They also have a lovely selection of specialty coffees, and cocktails. All thumbs up from us!! Great job!!

    I used to come to this place often then they quit serving the Chop Chop salad and a few other things I did not really like so went elsewhere. But decided to try it again and maybe they put the Chop Chop salad back on. No Chop Chop salad but the menu was smaller but the food was excellent and so was the service. Two of us had the hamburger and both men said it was the best they have had in a long time, And it looked delicious and one had the Rueben Sandwich which was awesome and another had the Fish n Chips and they were outstanding. The French fries were the best. I will be coming back again. The new update which was some time ago I understand was an improvement. Now if they just get the Chop Chop salad back it would be 100%. They say it has to many ingredients for a small kitchen but I don't really by that. They made out before for years and if you look at their Beet Salad and compare what goes into that it probably has more ingredients. I do understand restaurants should update their menu's occasionally so it is ok. Good job Bistro.

    This is always a great experience. The employees are great - friendly and attentive. The food has never disappointed - this visit was for dinner, but I can say their breakfast is also phenomenal. It's a nice venue and feels like a personal experience each time.
