Bistro La BonOne of the best brunches IOne of the best brunches I ever had. You must stop here.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMSurprising sophisticationSince we dined here last, the menu has shifted to a focus on small plates (although there were a handful of excellent entrees, including butter-poached halibut, the famous Swedish meatballs, and a wonderful duck breast). Our table of four enjoyed sharing a wide range of fantastic items--we loved the fried manchego (who wouldn't?), the scallop, the couscous, the stuffed hot peppers, the salads--after one of us would try the latest offering they would say, "Oh, I think THIS one is the best." It was all fantastic. The bread pudding at the end was also wonderful. Our waiter was friendly and available when necessary but left us to enjoy the meal. We had a great time.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMBest restaurant in Charlotte!Hands down this is my favorite restaurant in Charlotte!5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMGirls Night OutFor our monthly girls night out we chose this quaint little spot and had a wonderful time. The food is fantastic - there wasn't anything I didn't like - and the atmosphere was fun and relaxing for a Friday night. There was quite an eclectic group of patrons from couples having a nice dinner to groups of friends such as ours. It was a pleasurable evening.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMContinues to please usEveryone in our party enjoyed their Dinners. wVery well prepared.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Addition to Plaza Midwood!!This is a great spot and you completely forget that you are in a strip shopping mall!

Loved their new tapas menu. We tried the Goat Cheese Stuffed Peppadew, Lavender Chicken, Crispy Avocado & Asparagus, and the Pork Belly and everything was delicious. Great service and good wine list; altogether an excellent meal. Will definitely be back.3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent filet and comboExcellent filet and combo scalloped and sweet potato side dish. Fabulous bread pudding!! I have ordered this in many restaurants but not as good as Bistro La Bons bread pudding.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMAnother home run at Bistro La Bon!They went out of their way to honor my last-minute reservation w/specific seat request, comping our wine when we had to wait 10 minutes for that to happen. The night's special small plate of house-smoked trout on dilled apple egg salad was subtly seasoned, letting the natural flavorings shine beautifully. Spouse tried swedish meatballs w/ lingonberry jam & whipped potatoes, now his new favorite. My usual filet mignon w/potato gratin, poached pear, + spinach was slightly undercooked from my request of medium, but so tender & delicious that there was no way I was going to send it back for more grill time. Finished w/bourbon brioche bread pudding. Server Melissa did a nice job, thorough w/good timing between visits. Mgt friendly & welcoming.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food, everything exceededGreat food, everything exceeded our expectations!!!

We will definitely return. The restaurant and bar area look great when you enter. It has a nice atmosphere. This restaurant has very good service and outstanding food. I recommend ordering a couple of the “smaller” entrees in the middle of the menu. They make a good size meal and it’s great if everyone at the table shares different entrees with each other.Very enjoyable.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMThey did not rush us and weThey did not rush us and we had a very nice leisurely dinner with friends3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were seated next to theWe were seated next to the open kitchen, so a little louder and busier than other parts of the restaurant.
