Honestly, I never had the chance to go this restaurant. I planned a birthday party for my wife, and made reservations for 9 guests a month in advanced. The restaurant called me 3 hours before the scheduled party and cancelled my reservation. The Bistro claimed that the owner was having health issues and that the restaurant would reopen in a couple of weeks. The situation was unfortunate, but understandable. I'd like to give a shout out and a big thumbs up to Hyde Park in Crocker for accommodating us on such short notice.

Excellent atmosphere and food. There appeared to be some confusion among the servers on several occasions on issues I couldn't discern. Plus, they also appeared a bit harried at times too. As well, the service was a bit "uneven" on several occasions during the meal. And, more specifically, when my table was cleared between courses, silverware was not automatically replenished. Plus, there were noticeable gaps in getting my table cleared between courses.

Owner and staff are amazing! But the show stealer is the food. Impeccable masterpiece of cuisine! It was more than dinner but a wonderful memory with fantastic food and service. The owner goes out of his way to make sure you are satisfied.

Start to finish an excellent experience! The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered between us a starter salad, lobster bisque, salmon and a shrimp/scallop dish and they did not disappoint. Our server, Billy, was attentive but not over-the-top and paced our meal perfectly.

Food was terrible, menu needs updated online. They were out of the short ribs so I ordered the chicken risotto dish. It was horrible. Server was so extremely rude and patronizing to me. Food is trash , place is outdated just like their plating. Go anywhere else you will be happy.

Went out for Valentine's day, the date ended up going not too great! First off, parking is not very accessible. Appetizer was the best item all night (Shrimp Tempura), however, needs way less red onion in the coleslaw. Gotta be careful with raw red onions! For the main dishes, they all had the same garnishing as the appetizer. Very odd to have balsamic vinaigrette on every dish I ate. Mashed potatoes were dry and lacked a velvety, creamy texture. Everything, and I mean everything was under seasoned, butter can only take you so far. Steak was cooked wrong twice in a row. Grits were monotonous and lackluster, also way too much on the plate. They prioritize quantity over quality. The hostess was lovely though Really had high expectations for this place. Definitely will not be returning, should have went to Applebees and got the Bourbon Street Chicken and Shrimp!

We waited 30 minutes past our reservation time for a table, another hour after that for our food, were double-charged on our one cocktail each and then hit up with $4 surcharges for them to pour our vodkas from the bottle into our glasses. Tack on the $15 tax bill and my tab came close to $50 over the amount it should have been. The restaurant was understaffed, service was at a snail's pace and the recent significant price increases to every item on the menu turned our Valentine's Day celebration into sour grapes.

Cons: Tiny parking lot Reservation time was pushed by 30+ minutes. Side plates on table were dirty when we sat down. Pretty quiet place, so if you are a loud talker, your entire convo will be heard. Very pricy, but great for a night out / special occasion Menu is different online than in restaurant Pros: Kind employees Strong drinks Food was delicious and steak temp was perfect. (Appetizer, crab cake. Mains, salmon and steak. Dessert, cheesecake) Will be back!!
