1st Bistro

Friendly service, peaceful place even at lunchtime. Complimentary bread. Skirt steak and potato salad were delicious. Reasonably priced.

The food is amazing! ! Everything is fresh, homemade and the service was perfect.
I’m definitely recommend this place! !!

This place is great! Awesome food. Friendly service. Wish I would have known about this place before. Will def recommend this place to all of my families and friends :)

I had heard good things about this restaurant and always like to try new places. It peaked my interest upon hearing that the indgredients are fresh and that both the Chef in charge and also Pastry Chef are really from France. They make the pastries fresh daily, not in mass produced large quantities. They also have a special that changes from day to day and so that is what I decided to try. It was a meal of seasoned breaded nuggets or meat croquettes made out of Turkey, served with rice and a vegetables assortment. it was absolutely delicious! Very tender and moist, fried just right, tastily seasoned and served piping hot from the kitchen. I was pleasantly surprised and glad to find this not so well known and rather high quality bistro, perfect for lunch. I hear that the breakfast is also very good. Great value. Wholeheartedly recommend!

I’ve given them 2 stars because I have to say the place looks much nicer than it did when it was Grunbergs. However the food and service deserve 1 star. The food is meh at best. Oh, that’s if you can ever get someone on the phone to take your order. I’ll call and call and it’ll either go straight to «the person you called is not available, please try again later» or it will ring and ring until same thing. What always kept Grunbergs afloat (even with their not very good food) was friendly people, prompt phone answering and speedy delivery. Delivery can now take over 20 mins just for simple pre-​made items like soups, oatmeal, etc. And then the food isn’t even good when it finally arrives.
There are so many other places in downtown with decent food (not to mention who actually answer their phones). There’s literally no reason to eat here.
