We came to this location on vacation for the very first time. The only thing that disappoints us is that it's so far away from where we live!! The food is phenomenal. Fresh and made to order. From appetizers to our main dishes everything was absolutely delicious. Pasta usually gets soggy and gross in other restairants. But at The Bistro it still had a bite. We plan on coming back on many more vacations to come.

We have been here several times in the past and absolutely loved it here and the mushroom ravioli. However last few times we’ve been here it’s definitely not as good? I do not like the new recipes! Sorry ?

The Bistro was recommended by locals and it did not disappoint. The service was fantastic and the Chicago fire pizza was superb. I enjoyed the atmosphere and friendliness of this place. Worth a return visit.

First time here and the food was incredible. Had the wild mushroom ravioli with a cream sauce. Was amazing. Staff were wonderful.

Server Brittany moved our seats away from a large party so we could have a quiet dinner. This was our first time here and she answered our questions and offered suggestions. The four of us all enjoyed our entrees and dessert selections. We will return again and again.

This is one of our favorite places to eat. We take all our visitors to have dinner. We love the salads, mushroom ravioli, and all the Italian dishes but our biggest weakness is the pizza, the sauce and the crust are really the best in town. Sometimes I wish it was a larger pizza but that would be harder on my waist line. The service is always solid, they seem to find nice people and they have a lot of long time servers which says a lot.

The Bistro is simply amazing!!! From the food to the drinks to the service….they never disappoint! Our recent visit with my parents proved their character. My mom, who deals with sensory issues from her dementia was struggling with the noise levels and they without hesitation moved us twice!! Looking forward to our next dining experience!

We had a delightful meal sitting outside on a cool evening. Had to cover the wine glasses because of falling leaves. But the food was wonderful. I will only say our service was a lower score. She didn't want to look our direction when the meal was finished. That is always frustrating when you are ready to leave. But the food and menu were great.

I walked into the Bistro just before the evening rush. Sophia came over and greeted me like an old friend. This girl had real skills. She showed me the menu, the specials, and made very good recommendations. She wasn't bothered at all that I didn't drink and quickly delivered a club soda and a Coke. She also didn't know I take pictures of my drinks and turn them into works of art while waiting for, in this case, a Margarita Pizza with very light cheese. It came out quickly and, to my surprise, was delish. SOPHIA checked backed often to ask if everything was ok. And of course it was. After the pizza I ordered 4 meatballs - one of Sophia's suggestions. They came out in a sweet, fig flavored, sauce. Not something I had ever tried before but you better believe I'll be trying them again. Overall it turned out to be a very enjoyable evening. I'll be returning to the BISTRO soon.

Once the Tuscan Sun redone for the better. Hubby had Veal Parm w/ house made gemelli pasta which was really good. Had to bring home the left over pasta. We also had 1/2 priced mussels on happy hour and the charcuterie board. I loved it. I had been craving it and it did not disappoint. We will definitely be returning.
