Customer Reviews
We celebrated our anniversary here and were lucky enough to have Andres H as our server. He was just the best of the best - old school hospitality, a step above, really making it feel like a special meal. He’s charming and funny and attentive and wonderful, a total star. We both did a prix fixe dinner and got a bottle of wine - there was a 30% discount on bottles this evening so it was a pretty great deal. One of our meals was onion soup, duck à l’orange, and cheese plate, and the other was pâté, moules frites, and crème brûlée. There wasn’t a dud in the batch - I’d highly recommend any and all to bring you joy. Extra credit to the person who came by to ask if I’d like ketchup, aioli, or mustard for my fries - love an option. I hope this place gets its flowers and is a success for a billio
Food was good overall but the dessert I had ordered was too sweet for my liking and unfortunately there was a draft that everyone at my table could feel. We were sitting in the bar seating area.
We tried Bastille Brasserie & Bar for the first time during Restaurant Week and all the food was amazing! The sorbet desserts were my favorite but I also really enjoyed the yellowfin tuna and panzanella salad. The price was reasonable, our server was nice and the patio provided a great ambience. Definitely recommend this place!
We took our friend out for his birthday. He chose Bastille. It's a decent restaurant and pretty popular with its clientele. Our waiter was really nice. He was friendly and helpful. My friends ordered the cold asparagus soup (special for the day) and I got the chicken liver pate. I enjoyed my dish. My friends didn't say much about the soup but they must have liked it because they cleaned out the bowl!! For the main dish, I got the trout almondine. The fish was soft and fork tender. Perhaps a bit too much butter!! The others ordered the duck breast and steak frites. Overall we were content with the meal. For dessert, I got the profiterole and one friend got the sorbet. Nice, but not outstanding.
Overall really lovely experience. We had multiple courses, food was excellent. Atmosphere was not what I was expecting but it was still nice. Just expect the dining room to be brighter than you'd expect for the time of night and cost of courses. Not a negative, just a heads up. It was lively, felt like a more casual experience but with really good food. So if that sounds like the vibe you are looking for, great! Easy to park anywhere around on the week days, probably easy parking at all times actually. Wine pairings were just okay, nothing exceptional and served a little warmer than ideal for the reds in my opinion.
