Ample street parking when we went.It's a quiet relaxed Bistro.Super friendly staff.The food was excellent 5++/5We had the grilled carrots. They were very different then what I've tried before. They were not overly sweet, not mushy and served with some wonderful sauces/purees. It's a wonderful dish that should be tried out.We then had the MB biscuits and gravy. I was a little worried that they would be like southern biscuits and gravy - flabby white gravy on cornbread. This was not the case.MB Biscuits and gravy 5+/5Despite this dish having bacon and chorizo and gravy the dish was not greasy and flabby. Instead it was delicious meaty bits with lots of flavour in a deep rich brown gravy served on slices on bannock. So I really liked it and my fears of southern biscuits and gravy were unfounded.So go try them out it's a cool little restaurant with friendly staff.
First time trying this bistro in the Westend. Street parking at this place. Close to HSC- would be a nice place to have lunch. We had glazed carrots as an appetizer to share - very nice combination of ingredients in this dish. On a bed of chickpea puree - grilled carrots in syrop with 2 jams to accent the flavour - cranberry ginger jam and jalapeno apple jam. We really enjoyed this dish. We both ordered the Manitoba biscuits and gravy - very nice bison, bacon and pork chorizo in gravy - with onions on Bannock. Loved the flavours. This restaurant has quite a few tables, a patio outback for the summer months and nice decor. The staff were attentive. Locally sourced ingredients- this includes all the drinks as well - there are plenty of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages on the menu. Tried the blood orange fizzy drink which was nice. We will definitely go again. Thanks for a great meal!
where to begin.. the service,the food,the atmosphere ??? just fantastic!!
What a gem this place is! Came here twice in the 48 hours that I was in Winnipeg.Loved every single dish, but especially crochue monsieur and the chess pie. Also, anything with their own honey involved is definitely worth a try. And of course, those bread and butter pickles are to die for (for all those pickle lovers) :)Awesome drinks and some really nice Canadian wines. I wish I tried the MB one, so will have to be back at least one more time!
I had the CBC burger it was fabulous, the warm potato salad was very good too. The server was friendly and interesting. Nice decor/atmosphere. I think I found a new favorite restaurant.
We went here for my birthday and it was a lovely treat! We started with the poutine at our server, Rich’s suggestion and I have to say, it was the best poutine I’d ever had!! Absolutely amazing!My husband had the chicken and waffles and he said he couldn’t believe how tasty, tender and moist the chicken was. Chef Dean told us his secret, but we won’t share his secret…My son had a burger (and he’s a picky teenager) and he raved at how delicious the burger was. (Can’t wait to see what they do for burger week!!)We will definitely go back! I was so full I didn’t get to try the chess pie that I’ve heard so much about.Do yourself a favour - give this place a try - you won’t be disappointed! And you’re supporting local when you do!
First time visitor and I felt very spoiled. The highlighted poutine for Poutine Week was phenomenal. The cut red potatoes with Bothwell curds, bison chorizo, blackened New Iceland jack... Scrumptious. But, more than that, the service was incredible from the moment I walked in. We were well taken care of and the friendly banter and suggested taste pairings were en pointe. Highly recommended! I will be bringing my out of town visitors to the Bistro in the future.
A fabulous little place with incredible service and food that you cannot get anywhere else! You gotta eat here! Had our company Christmas party here a couple of weeks ago, and just came back for dinner. Excellence on every level!!!
I've had a few meals here and have loved them all. I cannot wait to go back and try everything on the menu. The service and food are excellent!
