Pistache didn't live up to the hype that I had hoped for. French cuisine is my FAVORITE and everytime I would walk past it I wanted to go in! Very pretentious restaurant and our server, Ivan, was rude, didn't pay any attention to us or offer specials. To start, I asked for a dirty martini with no vermouth, but there was def vermouth in it, which I let slide and drank it. Then we asked for 2 appetizers, foie gras and mussels. (Something to note is their current menu online says Foie Gras is $36, but at restaurant menu says $42 which I hadn't noticed until after the fact). Anyway, we asked for 1 main dish of steak Frittes (we split) to come out a while after the appetizers, but it showed up within minutes of them. When Ivan noticed he came over, because he could probably see my disdain, and he asked if we wanted it taken back, which after some back and forth banter we said we did. In the interim, I had also asked if I could order a side of bone marrow butter for my meal (I would pay ofcourse) but he told me twice that the chef "wouldn't allow that". UM, what? I asked if he would ask for me please, and I'm STILL waiting for that answer, as he never gave it to me. I don't understand why I couldn't get a side of BUTTER that I was willing to pay for! He did not offer to look at a dessert menu and when I told him I had a gift card to apply to the check and showed him he just took my phone and walked away (it was in the form of a text), rolling his eyes like it was an inconvenience. His personality is definitely better suited for Dick's Last Resort, not what is supposed to be a nice restaurant.
The food was ok, but NOT $200+ ok. Unfortunately, I didn't take a pictures but there was barely anything there to take a picture of anyway, except for the mound of fries that came with the steak.
Cool atmosphere though but not cool enough to bring me back to this place. Find another French restaurant.
