French bistro with weekday breakfast & weekend brunch
"I found Mercat Bistro in Victory Park to be a favorite brunch spot, where smoked salmon benedict and green chile crepes are recommended." - AFAR
"The happy hour menu at this Michelin-recognized French bistro goes from 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. daily. It includes a selection of $6 martinis, $6 glasses of wine selected by the sommelier, $3 glasses of Peroni or Kronenbourg beer, and bites like smoked salmon, beef tartare, ricotta and honey, and more. Get cozy in the small dining room or grab a seat at the Parisian-inspired tables outside when the weather allows." - Courtney E. Smith
"This Harwood District French bistro is the little restaurant that keeps on going — and attracts loads of ladies who lunch and intimate dinner dates for folks who live and work in the neighborhood. The small interior is warm and sparse (think brasserie vibe), while the covered and open outdoor seating is wildly popular. It serves breakfast, lunch, brunch, and dinner of French fare, including quiche, moules frites, escargot, duck confit, and an excellent onion soup." - Courtney E. Smith
"Make it a cozy French bistro for New Years Eve by booking at this Michelin-recognized spot. It is offering a three-course prix-fixe menu featuring French-inspired dishes. Highlights include a creme fraiche tartlet made with Ossetra caviar, tartare de boeuf made with Harwood Beef tenderloin, a pork chop with parsnip puree and roasted sweet potatoes, and duck confit served with carrot puree. There will be three seatings throughout the evening at 5, 7 and 9:30 p.m., and for the final seating that includes a complimentary midnight Champagne pour and live music. The cost is $85 per person. Reservations are required and available online." - Courtney E. Smith
"Under the same food program led by chef Taylor Kearney, this restaurant likewise earned recognition with beef playing a starring role thanks to Kearney’s locally raised, exclusive wagyu program that the coverage links to both quality and a reduced carbon footprint." - Courtney E. Smith
