    The food was just ok. The waiter gave me some incorrect Information and charged me too much for a side dish. He also didn’t wrap up my whole foggy bag.

    Just had a wonderful meal at Local Bistro celebrating our 49th wedding anniversary. We had been out of town and had not made plans to celebrate but at the last minute we booked a reservation at one of our local favorites and they accommodated us by giving us a special booth. Our server was excellent and the food was fabulous! That is why we keep coming back again and again! Thanks for making our anniversary so special!!

    It was great. It was the first time my guests had ever been to Local Bistro, and they really enjoyed it. I'm a long time, regular customer, and I'm never disappointed!

    We had a great Sunday brunch with the mushroom and gruyere cheese omelette (note the truffle cream sause is very garlicy) and the unusual, but good, tarimisu stuffed french toast. We poured the kahlua-maple reduction "syrup" into our coffee which was perfect! Only issues were the loud singing selections on the PA echoing in a nearly empty restaurant making it hard to converse, even after the volume was turned down, and the exceptionally unusual "surcharge" added to the bill for health benefits for the servers!! However, we will still be back to try other great looking brunch items.
