    My husband and I dined with 3 others. They graciously switched tables for us which was a big help for our needs. Georgia did a great job serving our table. She assisted in a drink I enjoyed. She was attentive to everyone’s needs. Sauted chicken w/artichokes was lacking flavor and chicken was tough. Lobster risotto was average; husband won’t order again. Noise level got higher as time went on and made it hard to hear friends conversing.

    Our server was a wonderful young lady and very attentive and efficient. I had the tuna tartare and it was fabulous with a beautiful presentation. My wife had French onion soup and said she has not had better. She had the burger with fries and both were great. I had the halibut and it was delicious. Great place and we have been several times and will return.

    We’ve been to Local Bistro many times and this was our first poor experience. Seated at a table near the kitchen which wasn’t ideal ( there were other table options they could have seated us at. Waiter was extremely slow in getting our drinks and food orders. Had to flag him down more than once. The food was good as always but the night was a disappointment.

    Sitting on their patio this evening was wonderful. Great food. Fantastic service. Great ambiance. They were very accommodating when we had more people come than planned. One of favorite places for modern Italian dishes.
