This place is fantastic. The food is delicious, I recommend the braised short ribs and the brownie a la mode. The people that work there are so kind and patient. I will definitely be back!
My husband and I came here for lunch for the first time and we both loved it. He got the Mediterranean chicken salad and I got the southwestern chicken wrap. Both were amazing. So fresh, tons of flavor, and even the plating was beautiful. I’d love to come back for dinner. Lunch prices were reasonable for the quality.
Great neighborhood joint! Nice big dining room or intimate bar area to watch the game. Food is amazing and so is the service!
I thoroughly enjoyed myself at Bistro 44. Half off burger Sunday is a nice treat. The rest of the menu is definitely appealing to many tastes. The wait staff that I've had was always friendly and the service was always great.
We were outside bc we had a dog with us but it was a nice day… Good service, good food! Definitely would come back. Ate Mediterranean Salad and my friend ate the hamburger, both tasty and delicious!
Quality ingredients make for a quality meal. Everything was delicious and well prepared. All flavor notes melted well together. Presentation was on par. Good service and a nice atmosphere. Hidden gem. Will come here again!
Solid menu with a nice variety, but not overwhelming. Maybe because of that, the execution was top-notch! I had the hot ham and cheese, which sounds basic. However, it was excellent! Especially paired with a side salad. Our server Noah was great as well. 👍😁😋
Last Sunday, I decided to visit Bistro 44, which is conveniently located not far from my home. They offer a promotion of 50% off all burgers on Sundays, making it an attractive dining option. The burgers were incredibly tasty. Unlike many of the other restaurants in the vicinity, the french fries at Bistro 44 stood out as being truly excellent, perfectly crispy and seasoned. Additionally, there is a bar section attached to the restaurant, which adds to the overall atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, contributing to a delightful dining experience.
I love this place! The Half Priced Burger Sunday’s keeps me coming back. It’s a mighty slab of beef beautifully cooked and presented. The restaurant is a pleasant environment, but we usually opt to eat in the lounge. The bar staff is great — Ryan (not sure if that’s his name) is not only attentive but also quite witty. Clientele is friendly; many seem to be regulars, probably from the Country Club. Definitely worth your Sunday lunch if you’ve never been here! Oh, one last thing — if you go to the men’s room, be forewarned you may have some smiling woman named Wittenbraker hovering over the urinal watching you relieve yourself. What nerve!
Went for the Sunday half off burger special and ended up getting the best burger in town!
