Amazing evening to celebrate Biff’s Bisto’s 25th Anniversary! The Chefs created memorable dishes full of flavour and creativity. Loved the cocktail bite-sized quiche but the escargot & sweetbreads dish was my favourite!Wonderful wine pairings and a fantastic strawberry basil welcome cocktail. The atmosphere was warm and celebratory with great stories from the chefs. I hope Biff’s continues for another 25 years! (But please find a reason to do another evening like this one sooner than that!)

Had an amazing dining experience at Biffs. Our server Raul was attentive throughout and the food is as ever delicious. We had the steak tartare, burrata and coq du vin. We also made the most of the 50% of bottles of wine for the happy hour.

The salmon and white bean was delicious as was the chicken coq au vin, along with the escargot and chicken liver parfait. The wine paired well with the food and service was great! Thank you for a nice evening!

Our server {unfortunately can’t remember her name :(} was the sweetest lady! She was the most memorable part of our visit, aside from the food. We all shared a bite of each others dishes and when I tell you everything, and I mean everything, was on point. Cooked to perfection, down to our desserts! We had an amazing time treating our mom for Mother’s Day, and will definitely be back for another special occasion.
