Le Bistro

My husband and I came here because we are fans of the show “Kitchen Nightmares,” and I wanted to surprise him with a dinner here before our cruise. To say that our experience here was amazing is an understatement. Our food was phenomenal, the service was amazing, and we talked to the chefs wife for a bit too. She even invited us after talking for a while to meet the chef, and he signed our menu. We plan to get it framed and keep it in our home. We met cooking, so this was such a memorable experience for us. This fine establishment is anything but a nightmare. Thank you to all for the amazing experience 💗

My friend and I came here for dinner and were disappointed from start to end . from the confused service to the food that lacked flavor and angry ending the only decent dish we had was the lamb chomps. everything else was lacking I was going to leave a better rating but the attitude i got at the end wasn't worth it. felt like I was dealing with someone from kitchen nightmares even though no one else was in there as guests. for facts I rarely leave low reviews reservations are available gratuity is included directly parking available upfront.

An always-anticipated highlight of our semi-annual Florida jaunts. The owners are friendly and engaging and treat us like old friends whenever we visit. You can’t go wrong with any of their steak or lamb dishes, and my wife always raves about the perfectly prepared garlic pesto sauce on the escargot. The menu is always evolving, with a rotation of some items every few months. Treat yourself. You WILL go back for more. UPDATE 11/28/20: A fantastic Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings. The turkey was moist and perfectly cooked, and the roast beef my wife had was as rare as she likes it and had a great flavor to it. Now that we're full-time Florida residents, we go at least once a month, and ordered take-out when the restaurant didn't have seating during the pandemic. Please support your local businesses! UPDATE 2/9/25: Still a regular haunt after all this time. The food - whether steak, vegetarian or seafood - is always made to order, perfectly cooked and delivered with a smile. The owners - the chef and his wife, who mans the front - never seem to be too busy to chat, and are always interested in feedback and suggestions for improvement. With so many restaurants having closed after the pandemic, the fact that Le Bistro is still around means that they have to be doing SOMETHING right.

A friend and I dined at Le Bistro Sunday evening. We have been dining there for many years and it never disappoints. The service is friendly and impeccable. Great waitress. My friend had the delicious mushroom soup loaded with mushrooms and very creamy. I had the roasted cauliflower with black garlic, raisins and balsamic reduction. What a fabulous way to eat cauliflower. We shared a dish of mussels in a scallion cream sauce that was absolutely delicious. Even though there was plenty to eat with everything else we ordered, we had to share the mussels too as they sounded too incredible to pass up and they were. We each had the rack of lamb which was cooked perfectly and very tender. It came with the small French green beans and truffle mashed potatoes. You could actually see the small pieces of truffle in the potatoes and the flavor was sublime. For dessert she had the delicious, tender apple tart with vanilla ice cream and loved it. I had the flourless chocolate cake which came with glazed strawberries, so sweet and delicious, strawberry sauce and some very tasty blackberries. The flourless chocolate cake was scrumptious and perfect for real chocolate lovers as it was very chocolatey, dense and delicious. We highly recommend Le Bistro for a fine French dining experience.

What a surprisingly delicious, elevated spot! It’s cute but not stuffy, with an approachable vibe and excellent food. Tried the blue crab cake, a special waygu poutine, steak Diane, creme brûlée, and the chocolate torte. Everything was so delicious and well-balanced! My favorites were the steak and the torte, but everything was honestly excellent. My husband had a special pork dish and he loved that too. The torte felt a little more like a fudge than a cake, but it was delicious all the same. It came with excellent fresh fruit and had such a wonderful balance of flavors and textures. The server was great and the meal was paced perfectly. They have an extensive wine menu and some beers as well. Really looking forward to coming back to try more of the menu!

Love this place’! Ellen & Andy are phenomenal. I’m vegan and felt like Ike everything was made just for me! They are sweethearts and it shows through their food and service. Thank for making our night memorable💜

We went last night for the first time for dinner. The food was delicious and we were surprised at the large portions. The Calamari appetizer was cooked perfectly. The House salads were the best I’ve ever had and the homemade blue cheese dressing was out of this world. Our main course meals were both cooked to perfection. The Oso Buco was so tender and prepared just right. I had homemade pasta, with sausage peppers onions which was out of this world. Our server Stacia was exceptional!! We met Ania the manager and she was so lovely and gracious! Great atmosphere and my new favorite place in beautiful downtown Tarpon Springs!! Will be going back to try some of the other great dishes on the menu.

We got the octopus app...completely my fault I did not like it as I didn't let her explain it to me. I ASSUMED it was charred...it was not. I could tell the quality was excellent but not to my preference. For dinner we got the lamb chops cooked a perfect med rare and the shrimp risotto also creamy and delicious. Our server suggested a perfect wine pairing for my meal. A palette cleanser was served before dinner...always a nice touch.All and all was a great experience. Parking is always an issue in that place but the restaurant did have designated spots right up front...I didn't notice that until I had already found a spot in an adjacent lot.
