Customer Reviews

"This place is like 2 minutes from my house so I decided to stop in for lunch. The server was intelligent and was able to tell me about the gluten free and dairy free options. I got a tuna salad wrap on a gluten free tortilla, potato salad, and a sprite for $20. It was so good. I was able to take part of it home because they are absolutely stuffed with tuna salad. The orange was a nice palate cleaner. I will bring my dad next time and we will have dinner."

"I came to Port Charlotte for work and I have never been to this part of Florida and a friend suggested this restaurant. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with open arms, like I was part of the family. I had no clue what I was in the mood for. I was suggested a few items. The stuffed mushrooms as a starter and for an entree, I got the special, which was "Eggplant Rollatini", and let me tell you something. It reminded me of grandmas Italian cooking from home. Absolutely phenomenal and flavorful. I could not eat it all and I'm excited for lunch tomorrow. Very kind people, one of the owners, Jolene, I believe her name is, was so friendly and was so personable. One of her staff members, I think her name was Cheryl. She was so very nice and fun to have as a server. The other server, Carlos was very generous and helped everyone. The cooks, the cooks, the cooks! My food was so good I needed the cooks to hear how amazing their food is. I had the pleasure of meeting Danny and Ricardo. These two in that kitchen, create art for your taste buds. I cannot wait to come back to Port Charlotte! This is my new spot!"

"I've been meaning to try The Bistro for a few years. The food and service were wonderful! I had no idea that it recently changed hands and must commend Jackie and Jolene on how well they're doing. I can't wait to try more dishes from the rather extensive menu. Food, drinks, and friendliness are out of the world! We may even become regulars!!!"

"First time here, we came on a Wednesday, rib night! We didn't get ribs though. We ordered chicken picatta. The chicken was cooked to perfection, as well as the angel hair pasta and the sauce was sooo good. Your meal comes with fresh bread and it was very delicious. 20 dollars for a meal isn't bad and there was enough we could have shared the meal."
