"Run by the power duo behind République, this subterranean spot in the old Sotto space in Beverlywood is a traditional French bistro in every sense of the word. Unlike their other restaurants where influence is pulled from across the globe, the focus here is straight-on French homestyle cooking; simple, heavy dishes like caramelized onion tarte tatin, crusty baguettes topped with sardines, and beef short ribs served with golden potato mousseline that are so tender, you can slice through them with a butter knife. Eating at Bicyclette is an indulgence of the purest variety, and sometimes that’s all you want at the end of a long week." - Brant Cox, Nikko Duren, Arden Shore
