I set the wrong expectations for this restaurant. I read Bistro and in my mind I was expecting more than a hamburger option for lunch. They did have many delicious looking breakfast options, but we were there for lunch. Our server was less than stellar.

Overall disappointing. Super slow service when the place was empty. Dirty drink glasses after waiting a half hour for a drink. Food was decent but no reason to return.

Many items were sold out and prices were expensive for what we got. Didn’t seem a good value for a meal but might be good if a person just wanted bar snacks with drinks.

Great food, well prepared. Milo was an attentive and friendly server. Her food recommendations were spot on. The small plates allowed us to dine on four courses at a leisurely pace as we listened to the well curated music (Milo’s playlist). The room was warm with decor that was eclectic class. We hope to return soon!
