My husband and I made a 7pm reservation at Bistro 258 last night for one of our infrequent and highly anticipated date nights. We showed up at the restaurant at 5 'til seven and were shown to a table and given a basket of bland, chalky bread. We sat there for TEN MINUTES while waitstaff bustled around the more than half empty restaurant. We watched the manager greet the table next to us and chat with two women. We were completely ignored until five after seven, when I told my husband that we're leaving. I cannot imagine why a nice restaurant would completely ignore a table during those first crucial minutes it has to impress. We will not be going back there and we would never recommend it to anyone we like.
Pros: good location
Cons: terrible service
