Bistrot: from Bistrotier (FR) - "A small, chef-owned corner Café serving modest, down to earth, food and wine". Chef Owner Stephan Mayeux (a native Parisian) and his wife Christine invite you to enjoy their own brand of Country French Cuisine in the welcoming comfort of their 1890's home. The Bridge Street Bistrot wine list features reasonably priced, young, drinkable table wines from around the world, with over 30 wines available by the glass. A full bar and bottled beer are also available. Because we are a small restaurant easily impacted by sudden cancellations, If your plans should change on the day of your reservation please contact the restaurant directly, prior to noontime. Larger parties require credit card confirmed reservations - please contact the restaurant directly. Thank You

    We enjoyed our meal- classic and delicious. The service was friendly and casual. I’m not sure we’ll be back though. Dining is an experience. They have the food and service right but the decor is a bit country brown with bric brac here and there. A white coat of paint; some decluttering, and blue and white table linens would make it feel more bright and modern and bring in new clients- like us! It was also a bit odd listening to 80s/90s music. The ambiance was very strange. But again food and service were good :)

    Delicious as always. The food never disappoints and the service is friendly and professional. Love the venue, both the more casual downstairs wine bar and beautiful upstairs.

    The only drawback is that it’s upstairs. Otherwise, everything about this restaurant is spectacular. The staff is super nice & knowledgeable, the cocktails are delicious & the food is outstanding. From what we were told, there is only the chef, no other kitchen help. That way he can control the quality of the food. I honestly don’t know how he does it, but he is simply amazing!
