The ambiance is very good, nice and attentive service by the people who came to our table. The big windows offer you the chance to gaze around the many cars and people having a relaxed walk. We certainly recommend the restaurant and I would add it is good value for the money you pay.

Bistroquet is okay. The menu is interesting. The food was good although nothing exceptional. The décor is very plain but service was nice and efficient. Prices I thought were a bit on the high side given the quality of the food but I still might try the place again.

Restaurant has a smell as soon as you walk in. Not appetizing. Service was super cordial but extremely slow. Food was very tasty but uneven. For example the caesar salad was fabulous but the Nova Scotia salmon was far overcooked. Also, the place has not been renovated in many years and looks not just dated, but in disrepair.

Excellent food, and the service was good. Recommendations: Increase the "by the glass" wine offerings. Few selections were available. Additionally, when we ordered a salad to share, it was not split in the kitchen, and we had to do it at the table. Unsure why the restaurant was not full on a Sunday evening, given the high caliber of the food and the varied menu.

I have been there twice in last few months and had a great experience both times. This place is under the radar as one of the best restaurants in town. Added bonus is very easy and close street parking.

Interesting menu; if I had to sum it up, I would say it is neighborhood restaurant trying to be more but struggling a bit. Thai food authentic. We arrived at 6:30 but as time wore on we noted it was unlikely that they would turn their tables twice that night...that makes it tough to survive. In any case, that neighborhood has seen some notable closures of late, so I wish Bistroquet well. We would go again, but more as a convenience than planning something special. Prices are very fair.
