Bell’s is truly something special a cozy French bistro with a Michelin star that it absolutely deserves. From the moment we sat down, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. You can feel the pride and care in everything they do. We ordered the panna cotta, the egg sandwich, the crab sandwich, escargot, and the pâté and every dish was a standout in its own way. The panna cotta was silky and perfectly balanced. The egg sandwich was simple but unforgettable, the kind of dish you think about days later. The crab sandwich was fresh, sweet, and beautifully composed. The escargot was rich and garlicky, classic in the best way. And the pâté… absolutely incredible rich, smooth, and full of depth. Bell’s captures that rare magic of feeling both elevated and comforting. Every bite

This was an amazing spot and it’s in the Michelin Guide! Super cute, rustic vibes with outdoor and indoor seating. We split the sardines as an appetizer. The tin is from Spain and came with cultured butter and hot sauce. My boyfriend ordered the steak tartare which he really enjoyed. My dad had the mole frites, my mon had the summer vegetable salad, and I got Chicken Paillard. My mom isn’t usually a salad person but this was incredibly well done - bursting with freshness and vibrancy. My chicken paillard came with a delicious sauce and had fresh greens and cherry tomatoes. For dessert, we had both the Gateau Breton butter cake as well as the Creme caramel (flan). We’re glad e tried both but the favorite was the butter cookie - simple yet rich and decadent. Parking was easy and credit card

We came with a rather large group, so we were split between two tables. The staff did their best to accommodate us. The service was excellent, everyone received their dishes at the same time. Questions about dishes were answered in detail. Everything I tasted was excellent. I should have gotten the Japanese pumpkin, though my mackerel was still very pleasant. Very glad we went.

★★★★★ 5.0 Chris McKiernan · Sep 2025

We visited Bell’s in Los Alamos for a special dinner, and it was an incredible experience. The restaurant has earned its Michelin recognition, and it shows. The set menu is a thoughtful five or six courses with options, and each dish was unique, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted and seated at a great table. The restaurant was bustling with energy, and it’s clear why reservations are a must. Our meal lasted close to two hours, but the time flew by thanks to the atmosphere and the way each course flowed into the next. Bell’s truly makes dining an experience, not just a meal. Highly recommended for a memorable night out

It is the most affordable Michelin-starred restaurant I have visited. All the staff are welcoming, and the atmosphere is casual. The food is excellent, too!
