Love this restaurant and I would give it 5 stars all around except that they seem to refuse to serve you their burger for dinner. It’s a delicious burger but you can only get it at lunch - which is weird. Why take your award-winning, probably high-selling item off the menu? I don’t get it.

A commendable 4.2-star performance overall. The leg duck confit and burrata were exceptional, showcasing the kitchen’s strengths. However, the cheese plate fell short of expectations. While the cheese selection was admirable, the accompanying toasted bread lacked the refinement one would anticipate from a French establishment. The presentation of the cheese course could also benefit from a more elegant touch

I was disappointed by everything. The restaurant is dark and it hasn’t been updated in years. My brunch meal was very mediocre. My Caesar salad was small for $10.50, the dressing was barely there, the croutons were teeny store bought kind, there were no Parmesan shavings (as the menu described), and I had to ask for the anchovies (that were listed in the ingredients on the menu). Worse, I received two skimpy anchovies. My Croque Madam sandwich was very disappointing—- barely any ham, small open-face portion and it tasted just ok. For a French restaurant the Croque Madam was 4.5 out of 10 and the accompanying frits were 5 out of 10. Overall, brunch was just ok. Not memorable, nor do I have any desire to go back.

We're habituees of Bistronomic! This last visit was a bad surprise: rude waiter, drinks waiter was very unexperienced, and...at reservation online we were asked if event was special, we said YES . We were asked which event it was, we wrote SON'S BIRTHDAY , still Bistronomic completely ignored it... what's the point, then? We will get back because we love the food, but service standard had a major drop

We hadn't been to Bistronomic for a long time and were delighted with our evening there. Both apps--homemade country pate and heirloom tomato salad, which had an unusual presentation--were both excellent. The Lake Superior Whitefish fish of the day was excellent; the duck breast was good, though a touch over-sauced. And the profiteroles were a nice way to cap the meal. The service was outstanding and very helpful. We definitely will add Bistronomic to our regular rota of Chicago restos.

Over a week of Paris Olympics had us seeking bistro food for our early Sunday dinner. Escargot was good, but the preparation was not the expected traditional butter,garlic and herbs. An heirloom tomato salad was spectacular. Coq au vin in a red wine/mushroom sauce was perfectly cooked and presented in a cast iron server. (5*) The all-French by the glass wine list is a carefully chosen limited offering. The menu is loaded with tempting food options, the 3 course prix fixe is a bargain.

The food was good, but the service not. Two of the dishes for brunch arrived much before the third, and we never received the side order of bacon one of our party ordered (although we paid for it. We discovered that fact only after we arrived home.) The bill came before we had a chance to order coffee; when we did, it was lukewarm. And the waiter messed up the bill the first time around.

We experienced the special Indian and French wine paired dinner last night and it was wonderful! The two restaurants, Bistronomic and Vermilion, teamed up to create a fabulous evening with a creative mix of the two cuisines and appropriate cocktails and wines accented the food perfectly. We are so happy we went. Bistronomic is always a winner and so was last night!

As a regular diner at Bistronomic, I know I can count on delicious food and on-point service. That is why my wife and I took two out-of-town friends to dinner there. I selected the special dining experience (an Indian/French fusion prix fixe menu), while the others in my party ordered from the regular menu. Each of us enjoyed our meals, and Frank's service was impeccable. Kudos to the rest of the staff who were welcoming as always.

This restaurant was the highlight of my trip to Chicago. My friends and I picked this restaurant out at random, it was near our hotel and we were craving steak frites so Bistronomic was the perfect spot. We came in with zero expectations and ended up having the best evening! To start, we ordered a bottle of wine and an appetizer. The wine was fantastic and the bread was delicious! We ordered another appetizer and notified the server of an allergy at the table and they took extreme care to ensure the food was safe to eat. The steak frites all came out perfectly and were all delicious. Throughout the entire night our glasses were full of wine and water and there was no point we needed to ask for anything. Everything we needed was taken care of before we could think of it. We ended up staying for dessert and an extra martini because we enjoyed our stay that much. It’s the coziest spot where the staff ensures you enjoy your experience to the fullest while leaving you be to spend time with your friends or family. I could not have had a better experience and will be back in Chicago just to visit Bistronomic again! À bientôt et merci!

The four of us -- family members with high standards and tummys that document experience eating out! -- enjoyed ourselves immensely at dinner last night. Choices ranged the gamut: seafood pasta, fish of the night, a huge pork chop, with starters to introduce this restaurants genuine French cuisine. The service was attentive, yet not hovering, just how it should be in a bistro. Confession. We are no longer unbiased. We've loved this place for years.

I had an amazing lunch experience for one. The onion soup is second to none, and the Le French burger is sublime. It was, perhaps, a bit too much food for one person for lunch but the food and the ambience can’t be argued. Definitely coming back, and thanks to the gentleman who waited on me — you’re awesome.

I have eaten here before which why I recommended it. We admittedly were all underwhelmed. We were hoping for traditional steak frites - the steak has gristle which left a portion uneaten and too thick. The other diners thought it was good, just not great. Appetizers were enjoyed as was the dessert. So good is all I can give it.

I've had Bistronomic on my list for a while and finally got to go last night. It was perfect! The $49, 3-course option was terrific. Wait staff had French backgrounds, which was delightful at a French restaurant. With the Olympics coming soon, I loved immersing myself in that food and language! Food was universally high quality and delicious. Ambiance was just a bit more upscale than you would find at a neighborhood bistro in Paris. Highly recommended.

Disappointing… we had the duck liver pâté and foie gras and could not taste any foie gras in the pâté. We also had a steak frites with sauce on the side which came overcooked. They redid the steak with the sauce on top. The second piece of steak didn’t seem to be the same quality as it was nearly impossible to chew.

Chef Martial has been one of my favorite chefs for some time. And indeed, this may be a second (third?) review that I have written for Bistronomic! The atmosphere is neighborly, promoted strongly by the Noquiers. Their often simple French cuisine is like its namesake, bistro, but with sophistication. The duck breast, the escargots, the mussels, the pate en croute, and gazpacho, were all delightful. Most important, how many restaurants remain where the executive chef wanders the floor throughout the evening to make sure that the diners are happy with their food; and even more, how many executive chefs come up to their customer and asks about his son? Chef Martial did for me - this is the community environment that he wants and seeks to capture! GO DINE AT BISTRONOMIC, you will not be disappointed.
