City Market Bistro

This review is a long time coming because we’ve been coming to City Market Bistro for years, and it has never disappointed. Their wine dinners are some of the best around and always memorable. On our most recent visit during a busy Thursday festival, we sat outside for dinner and ordered a bottle of Cotes du Rhone. We started with the foie gras appetizer, which was decadent and came with fig jam. My wife ordered the scallops, cooked flawlessly, and I went with the tenderloin medallions, which were tender and flavorful. Dan took care of us, as he has many times over the years. He makes you feel like you’re catching up with an old friend. Chef Scott is incredibly talented yet so humble, and his food speaks for itself. After all of our visits, the experience remains consistently excellen

Another gem in NSB! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ City Market Bistro is truly one of the standout spots in New Smyrna Beach. We applaud this restaurant for its attention to detail, thoughtful décor filled with unique art, and high-quality ingredients that shine in every dish. One thing we absolutely loved is that the tables are lined with paper so guests can draw right at their seat—and if your artwork is good enough, they’ll even feature it on their website. An artist’s dream spot and such a fun, creative touch! We started with the French Onion Soup, which was warm, comforting, and beautifully nostalgic.

The lamb patty was tender and

I’m very hard to please when it comes to dinning out. As a former Chef who grew up in a family restaurant I am picky and prefer to just cook myself. Especially now that customer service being somewhat of a lost art. So when it came time to choose yet another place to try for date night and a show at Brannon we chose City Market Bistro. I was not disappointed. From the atmosphere to the service and then the food. Everything was great. Chris was an awesome server. I will definitely be trying it again.

I love this bistro! Delicious and full of flavor in every meal. I met a friend for lunch today and we both we so happy! Our dishes were made to perfection and with love! Every bite was delicious and we finished it all. We ordered a couple of glasses of the Sauvignon Blanc which was fantastic! Every time I visit this restaurant I’m always 100% satisfied! Already looking forward to returning again.

The chef is always in the kitchen preparing something new and delicious. We eat out at least three days a week and this is our favorite restaurant. The staff is so friendly, they feel like family. They even dress up for Halloween!
