Customer Reviews
This place is a hidden gem. It’s a unique atmosphere to eat your lunch while watching a few small planes take off. As you can see from my photo, the food was absolutely delicious- I couldn’t even wait to take a picture before eating half of my club sandwich. That roasted pepper soup with the shredded parmesan is heavenly! I brought my toddler- who absolutely loved being able to see the planes. I felt like it was a friendly and inviting spot for families. Will be returning soon!
Food was delicious and the time I put in to pick up was accurate. In fact when I arrived on time my food was getting boxed to go. Got the Meatloaf sandwich and Tater Tots. As you can see the meal was as exactly as seen on the menu and the taste was excellent. Sandwich had a smokey taste, was moist and the slice was a very generous portion. I added bacon and caramelized onions and it was an excellent choice. Tots weren't greasy and had a very slight salt and pepper seasoning. I spoke with Jason the manager, and found out alot about the goals of the Bistro. I will go back again and suggest everyone try it out and pass on the word of its location.
So as someone not familiar with the airport, the bistro was a bit confusing to find. It's not a standalone restaurant, as the bistro is located inside the terminal. The airport terminal is open to the public, just walk right through the doors. I will mention that there are some small signs leading the way and Google maps takes you right there. Once I found my way in I was greeted by a friendly guy named Jason and the cook Hannah, who answered all my questions about the menu and the airport as well. Both my orders were to go. I had Gouda burger with caramelized onions and mushrooms. My wife ordered the pilots club. We both had side salads with crumbled blue cheese and balsamic dressing. Overall the food was fantastic, everything was fresh and cooked perfectly. The candied Bacon on my wife'
This is inside the regional airport. Great flavored bacon on the BLT sandwich. The salad was excellent and if it looks familiar, you know this restaurant sister’s company is Blue Wind. The manager was super sweet. Prices were very reasonable for the amount of food I received. I will be back..
I feel sort of bad for leaving a negative review of a small business, but the lunch I got there was just so abysmal I feel like I have to say something about it. I got the "Puddle Jumper Pulled Pork" - this is described as "rum soaked pork on banana bread, topped with vinegar based slaw featuring hints of mango and coconut, topped with pineapple salsa and hot honey" that's admittedly an odd combo of flavors but I really like unusual flavors, and pork can definitely be paired successfully with sweet fruits if you know what you're doing. Reader, what I received was a thick slice of partly unbaked, VERY sweet banana bread topped with a little bit of sauceless pulled pork and 6 pale chunks of what appears to be canned pineapple. No mango, no coconut, no slaw, no hot honey that I could taste, a
