This is an email I sent to the owners of Bistro Maison after dining in their establishment. If you haven't been and love great food, service and ambience then you must try this restaurant. Impeccable does not begin to describe a dining experience here.
We were a party of 4 This last Saturday night and I wanted to let you know of the amazing experience we had at your restaurant.
First, the ambience was perfect. We decided to eat in your patio after taking a look... we usually don't like to eat outside at restaurants because it is usually an after thought by the staff. Not so in this case. Your patio was perfect- including your boxer. The tablecloths were pretty and matched the atmosphere, the chairs were
comfortable and the landscaping served as a pleasant backdrop.
Second, your staff was amazingly proficient, friendly and attentive without being annoying. They also knew their menu and were able to convey a sense of ""I've got to try that"" without being pushy. We never wanted for anything and were replenished with water a bread at
the right moment.
Third, your special drink of Aperol was delicious and perfect for an evening meal on a summer night. We intend to purchase some Aperol and share the drink with friends while we tell them of your restaurant.
Fourth- the food was beyond delicious. We all had fish at our table and it was prepared perfectly and presented beautifully. I must say that the green beans and carrot were also perfectly cooked. I get so
tired of the vegetables in other restaurants cooked to death and annoying. Yours were a great match with my Halibut in a Morel cream sauce.
Fifth- We got to ""dine"". there was no hurry to turn the table and we were able to savor our appetizers and dinner and enjoy great conversation.
Kudos to you and your staff for doing everything possible to make our evening memorable. Although I was the only one that had been to your restaurant before I felt as if I had discovered something new even
though my other experience had been just as wonderful.
I wish you the most success in keeping your restaurant the beautiful gem that it is. We will be back with friends in tow!
Pros: Exquisite food, atmosphere and service!
