    Bistro Bistro goes above and beyond on customer service! I had friends visit from out of town to celebrate a birthday and Bistro Bistro made us feel so welcomed! Plus the food was out of this world and was out in no time! We so enjoyed on our time here and will be back for our next celebration!

    Terrible experience. The worse, absolutely worse, eggplant parmigiana I have ever had! I could not eat it but the pasta with it was OK. The persons next to me sent her food back, I should have followed suit.

    Service was rushed and half of their menu was unavailable. What we were served came out cold and bland.

    Went here for my wife's birthday. Made a reservation and got even more than we expected. The service was amazing. They give free champagne and cake for birthdays. We wound up with the restaurant to ourselves and they brought out speakers and let us play our own music. This was a great dining experience. The food was great and the staff was professional, but friendly and fun. This a great place to visit.

    We were very disappointed in the service and the food. Nothing horrible happened. And, in fact, we really liked the feel of the restaurant. We were a group of eight on a family trip to DC and the restaurant was right down the street from our hotel. No one enjoyed their food and it took an extremely long time to get our food despite the restaurant being almost empty. I do not recommend this restaurant.

    Pay attention to the existing negative reviews. They are an accurate summation of this restaurant. The food was absolutely, completely, and utterly the worst food I have ever had. It was shameful that they let this food out of the kitchen. I told the management about the food. Strangely, my OpenTable reservation was cancelled BY the restaurant AFTER I ate at the restaurant and this prevented me from leaving a review. I had to contact OpenTable to reinstate my reservation so I could leave a review. DO NOT GO HERE.
