Entrance is winter ready with 2 layers of doors to receive you. We were sat right away. The server assistant hit us with water as we were seated and Lynn was prompt to follow. She steered us toward the Steak au Poivre. It was so very flavorful and tender. That peppercorn rub was popping and very present. We are the sharing type so we can taste different levels of the menu:Tuna nachos were great be sure to work to the sauce at the bottom and dip the chips that need it. House salad was a bunny's delight with the candied nuts and goat cheese and dried blueberries. The sides were got were also no stranger to seasoning and careful crafting: truffle fries and the bacon tomato risotto. These babies were way better than fingerling potatoes. Finally we capped it off with a slice of key lime cheese cake from Slices in Parma. Not too light no too rich, just right. Single stall bathroom. Lots of TVs. Would go again for suresies =]

We were at the Bistro Fri evening. My husband had the Steak Au Poivre and he liked it very much but he thought there there should have been more potatoes. I had a burger and fries because I was just getting over a cold and didn't want a huge dinner. It was good I liked our server but did not get her name. The restaurant looked nice and restrooms were clean!

Finally noticed this great restaurant, that I have driven by a hundred times. Never paid attention to the name on the building, I actually thought it was a medical building, Well when I did notice, I decided I was going to try it. When we entered the restaurant , it was amazing inside very classy and up to date. It was mid afternoon, so it was empty inside. We were greeted and sat at our table right away. Our server Jessica was terrific. Answered our questions and was on top of her game. We ordered the Poke nachos and Shrimp Tacos for our appetizers. The Poke Nachos had raw tuna over some amazing fried wontons with an Asian sauce that'll drive you're taste buds wild. The Shrimp Taco were absolutely delicious also with a zingy sauce that made you want more. For our entrées I had the Red Eye Burger and wifey got 7 Pepper Cedar Plank Salmon. The burger was cooked to perfection. the espresso Mayo was on point. The salmon presentation was awesome and perfectly cooked. I also rwaliothat the restaurant filled up pretty quick. Jessica suggested the Keylime pie. It was good enough of a size that we shared a slice. Overall everything was great. If you're in the area or just looking to entertain or just want a relaxing meal with you're significant other, stop in and enjoy.

This has been a crazy extended weekend. Shary and I drove out to Lorain for the eclipse and started having mystical experiences before we were even halfway to the Ariel Hotel. For example, Shary saw a road sign for an attraction that kind of reminded us of that Frank Lloyd Wright house, Falling Waters. She plops that into the GPS and BAM! GPS says turn right at the next exit. So we get to see that. On the way there we pass a place we went white water rafting! Great memories. And of course, Falling Waters is rad.Anyway, we get to the hotel and the weekend just gets stranger. So fun. Everyone is all spazzing out about the eclipse. We meet a clothing designer. Whatever.So yeah. Back to this spot. Eclipse done. Fancy dinner for us vacationers? An internet search suggested this spot would be worth the 25 min drive from Lorain. And it was.Oysters. Cooked dates. Good drinks. Very good end to an extended weekend!

Just had lunch there with my mother for her birthday. Had the oysters, which were fresh, got the scallops, which were the best I've had in Ohio. Our server Christian was knowledgeable and incredibly hospitable. Can not recommend this place enough. Food was so delicious forgot to take pictures until we had already had some bites.

The Steak au Poivre is simply delicious. The sauce that comes with it is amazing. The steak stands alone by itself but the peppercorn and sauce take it from a good to a great. Wife had the Shrimp Carbonara and the shrimp themselves were very chewy. Not what you want for the feature of this entree. The sauce that the pasta was in was just ok. Nothing great about this dish. The portions for sides and appetizers are a little disappointing as are the prices. The service was good and bad- Good due to the great waiter we had but bad due to no place to wait in this establishment so we had to stand outside in the cold. And we were not given bread. Small things that go a long way. Would I return? YesWill it be the next restaurant I go to when it's time to eat out? No

Steak Au Poivre 9/10. Steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare, just how I asked for. The color was beautiful pink/red. Peppercorn crust was a strong pepper flavor. I'm not too huge on pepper, but it was tolerable. If you don't like pepper- this is not for you. The cream sauce was great, i love my sauces- so I personally would have liked a little more. Rosemary potatoes had a good flavor. The rosemary was not overpowering. They were really good, didn't need any butter or salt or anything added! Vegetable was Brussel sprouts- I substituted for the risotto.Mushroom & Bacon Risotto 10/10. It was very flavorful between the mushrooms, bacon, tomatoes and cheese flavors. Absolutely fantastic. One of the best risottos I've ever had. Calabrian Shrimp & Pasta 9/10. (Kyles rating) Shrimp was phenomenal, seasoned well and cooked perfectly. Didn't get any sausage though even thought it's supposed to have it in there. Didn't notice any Calabrian peppers either. Sauce was very rich and creamy and could taste the garlic. Pasta was cooked perfectly.Pork Volcano. I didn't eat this, but someone else ordered in our party. The meat was so tender it was falling off the bone while the server was carrying it.Crème Brûlée 6/10. Didn't know that this was not traditional crème brûlée. It tasted like peanut butter to me. Wasn't very excited about it after the first bite. It wasn't bad, I just wanted a traditional crème brûlée. Kyle liked it and he doesn't like traditional crème brûlée.

Been here quite a few times and LOVE it. Great food, ambiance, staff, etc. But why can you not get a drink without sitting at the bar? You could be making more money but instead we wait until our table is ready without a drink
