    We went here because the Restaurant Week menu was so good and extensive, all for $45 per person. The surprise was that almost all wines on the large wind menu were 50 percent off. The vibe is totally that of a Parisian brasserie. The decor is beautiful and the bar on the main floor takes up most of the first floor. The service was great. We were visited by the manager, the maitre'd, the executive chef, and the waiter was very outgoing. The food was great too . I had the pork Diane with 3 large pieces of pork tenderloin cooked perfectly on a bed of mashed potatoes with a mushroom cream sauce. My husband had the steak fries and the steak was extremely flavorful. I'll be back because it was a real hot spot!!

    Bistronomic is one of our favorite Chicago restaurants. The minute you walk in the door, the beautiful, gregarious French hostess makes you feel welcome. My husband and I come here for many special occasions, and other times in between. This was restaurant week, and the menu choices were delicious and affordable. We each had the $45 price fixe dinner which included delicious appetizers (cauliflower soup with creme fraiche), I ordered l'escargots for an additional $6. For entrees, I ordered the salmon with mushroom and red wine sauce, he ordered the beef bourginon, we both had the cherry-vanilla bean creme brulee for dessert. The chef always tours the tables and makes sure everyone is enjoying the meal. The servers are friendly and expertly trained. Also, cocktails and wine choices are superb. FIVE STARS ALL AROUND.

    What a sweet, lively, celebratory ball of culinary excitement this is! Enjoyed all of the broad and delicious offerings of the “Restaurant Week” menu, and then some. Pretty cocktails, well executed. Diverse wines by glass. Best of all, a wonderfully hospitable and energetic server with a broad smile and an engaging manner! As well as solid knowledge of the menu, and welcome generosity. Alas, a somewhat under-heated bed of greens with my sea bass did not ruin the evening. Nor did the several misspellings on the wine list, which did not seem to fit the French/Mediterranean overall concept perfectly (e.g., three Chablis listings, but little other good affordable white Burgundy; not enough from Provence, Bandol, Rhône). No doubt, as with all wine lists, an imperfect work-in-progress! Will most certainly return to enjoy more of this great new addition to the west Loop scene.
