We were very pleased with Bistro Calais - the menu and service were very consistent. The chef makes simple dishes come alive. Examples are french onion soup, mashed potatoes and bordelais sauce. Both Filet Mignon with foie gras and Strip Steak were excellent. However, Roquefort topping on the strip steak was a bit strong and foie gras on the filet was tasty but not firm enough. Our favorite appetizer was pistachio-crusted baked brie with raspberry sauce. The mixed green salad was tasty yet simple. Service was prompt without being imposing. Creme brulee was very good, and would be perfect with a firmer custard. Overall, our experience was amazing and we definitely will return for items on this tempting menu, such as Duck Confit and Steak Frites.
Pros: tasty food, simple menu, nice atmosphere
