    A quiet Saturday
    Alex F.

    After a long family inquiry and an intense debate about where to eat on a quiet Saturday, we ended up at the bistro and I am so glad we did. -- as an aside, know that this block of real estate offers several tempting possibilities, from pub/tavern fare to burgers to creole--. Anyway, back to the food... It is, as the name implies, a typical French bistro. We arrived when they were serving brunch. Five of us ordered three different things. Everyone was very happy. I ordered the croque monseur. It was phenomenal! The meal came with really good french fries and robust Guyear cheese, perfectly toasted. The fries were actually better than five guys for any french fry connoisseurs is out there... One in our party ordered the soup of the day, fresh mushroom soup, with a side of bread. She was very happy with that. And the others ordered crêpes, which were apparently quite delicious. The prices were reasonable and the espresso drinks were authentic and very good. How often does a Family decision ever turn out this well!

    Truite Amandine Dinner (rainbow trout) with loads of bones, of which these are only a small fraction from just a few bites of fish.

    Do not order the Truite Amandine (rainbow trout)! Although it was a large portion of fish, it didn't matter because I couldn't take a single bite without picking out several bones. In EVERY single bite. I finally gave up and left most of the fish uneaten. Unfortunately, it was a take-out order so it wasn't like I could just send it back. Restaurant only gets one star only because the spinach was fine. Edible, unlike the trout. Also, what was weird was when I went to pick up the order and gave them my name, they asked what restaurant I was picking up from. Even if they have had trouble with people coming in mistakenly before, one would think they would know that they were my intended destination by giving them the name associated with the order.

    Le Bistro du Village in Mount Washington in Baltimore, Maryland
    Mary R.

    I met a friend here on Tuesday to eat dinner and hear the Stone Hill All-Stars play a gig. I have never been here before and was pleasantly surprised to have a delightful evening. I parked at the MTA parking lot in Mount Washington at around 6 pm. Le Bistro Du Village is a French restaurant that has a reputation as being "the crepe place" in Mount Washington. They do indeed serve crepes, both sweet and savory. My dining companion had the Crepe Nicoise with tuna and it was amazing. I had the warm goat cheese salad (Salade de Chèvre Chaud) with beets. (Beets are in-- have you noticed?) The goat cheese in the salad was two large chunks that had been lightly breaded and deep fried. Combined with baby greens, walnuts, tomatoes, and a balsamic vinaigrette, this was really tasty and healthy. They had an interesting cocktail menu but I am all about the beer. I had a blonde Grimbergen and then a Stella Artois. This place is definitely a bit pricey but considering we also had live music from 6-9, it was an incredible deal. The Stone Hill All-Stars seem to be an amalgamation of the defunct Polkats and Two Legs. There were four guys in the band and they were all terrific. It was not too loud and the filled restaurant was very appreciative of this performance. I loved hearing their original songs as well as a cover or two. You can tell that these guys have played together for a long time-- they make what they do seem effortless. The crowd was definitely an older demographic on this evening. I have to include myself amongst them. Thank you Bistro du Village and the Stone Hill All-Stars for a delightful evening of great music, food, and company. I'm a fan and I will be back.

    Crepe Marie Antionette

    Glad I found this place! It's a bit of a drive outside of the typical tourist spots to Baltimore, but we'll worth it I'd say. The place is small, and only had 1 waiter at the time, not sure if that was typical, but getting food did take longer than usual. I'd definitely come back and just may order the Crepe Marie Antionette all over again, and again, and again. :) You get huge lumps of crab meat, huge shrimp, and a very delicate yet flavorful sauce.

    Amazing food! We ordered the duck confit and it was spectacular. Served on a bed of spinach, tastes delicious. Friendly service, great food... it's the only French restaurant I would go to when I'm in the Baltimore area.

    I had an enjoyable experience the first time my fiancé and I ate here, so we decided to go back for Valentine's Day. I made a reservation, which had to be secured with a credit card. Unfortunately, an unexpected snow storm hit. About 2 hour before our reservation, we watched out our front door as cars and SUVs struggled to get up the hill out of our neighborhood, losing traction, slipping, and sliding all the way back down. He looked at me. "We can't go out in this." With very little food in the house (and both of us looking forward to a romantic meal after we'd spent the past week apart) canceling our reservation was the LAST thing we wanted to do, but there was no choice. I reluctantly called the restaurant and when I said I needed to cancel because of the snow, the man who answered the phone said "Hold on while I get the owner." I explained to the owner that we couldn't make it because of the snow and he informed me he was going to charge me $45. (There was no mention of such a charge when I made the reservation through Open Table.) I would have understood a $10 or even $15 charge, given that it's Valentines Day on a Saturday, but $45?? I argued with him that was unfair given the circumstances. He spat with irritation, "Everyone else is here. Why can't you come?" "Because there is three inches of snow on the road and our street hasn't been plowed yet." "Fine. What's your name?" I gave it to him. "Fine."--AND HE HUNG UP ON ME. I was speechless at the rudeness I dealt with from the OWNER of this establishment. I liked the place, and we probably would have gone back numerous times. But this was absolutely unacceptable behavior and I will never go back.

The first round of brioche crostini came with unexpected mold on it and when I informed our server, he took it away and brought fresh slices out. The foie gras and fig jam was quite tasty and played well. When I tell you this sea bass was cooked to perfection! I mean just that. The meat was flaky and solid with the outside perfectly seared! The risotto was very rich and I wasn't a big fan however I forced myself to eat it with the fish and it was perfectly paired along with my asparagus for the ultimate bite. I would come back just for the sea bass any day!

I didn't want to enjoy it as a sandwich so I picked a salad off the menu and they plated it perfectly. It's an 8oz crab cake but this was a generous 8 oz. The flavor was perfect and the crab very sweet. I enjoyed it with their Pear & Blue salad $14 which was a nice mixed of greens, a poached pear with blue cheese crumbles and candied walnuts. It was very agreeable. I did not plan on enjoying dessert until he said lemon bar, "Yes please!" The service was on point and I would definitely visit this local restaurant again if travels bring me to Baltimore. Thank you for a wonderful dinner.

When we arrived, we were seated right away, but it seemed like there were very few staff working--possibly only one waiter. It took about 10 minutes before we finally had to flag him down just to place our order. The food then took around 25-30 minutes to come out, which felt very long since we were on a tight schedule for our flight. When the food finally arrived, I ordered the macaroni and cheese, and unfortunately it was the worst mac and cheese I've ever had. I don't want to be mean, but it was very bland and really needed salt. My sister surprisingly liked it, but it just wasn't for me at all. The rest of my family did enjoy their meals, and I thought the fries were decent, just lightly seasoned. My mom especially liked the grilled cheese. The waiter himself was nice and kept our drinks refilled, so I don't think the long wait was entirely his fault. The restaurant is very cute inside with cozy, old-style vibes and festive Christmas decorations, which I really liked. However, between the long wait times, the limited menu, and my disappointing mac and cheese, I wouldn't recommend that dish. Overall, it's a charming place, but the service was too slow for us--especially when trying to catch a flight.

    We came to check the restaurant out on a Thursday for restaurant week. While some things went good…read more Other things unforunately missed the mark. What went well: Though there was only one waiter who also was serving as the bartender, the service was quite good. She checked on us a few times and kept us informed. What missed the mark: Food: Though there was only a few people in the establishment, it took over 45mins for us to get out appetizers which were shrimp cocktail and spinach artichoke dip. While they tasted good seems like a long time to wait for these ideas. When our 2nd course came out, they were both cold. We both ordered the beef short rib with mash potatoes and carrots. The mash potatoes and carrots were literally cold with the beef short rib being lukewarm. At this point we asked if they could just wrap it up for us to take home as we had been there 1.5hrs at this time. I will say when I got it home and warmed it up it was quite good. Lastly for food they missed the mark as they kept running out due to delivery/pickup options we were told. Seems crazy to me to keep filling takeout orders if you already offered it to those sitting in the restaurant but hey. Not sure we will be back but we may give it another try since the food at least did have a good taste.

There was nothing left on the plates or in the glasses! 50/10!!! The whole situation was just a really cool vibe! We will CERTAINLY return! 3 entrees, 3 drinks, 1 soda around 188$ with 18% gratuity included. Let me just double say, these wings alone are worth a return trip! I have NEVER had wings that tasted like those. But that team, the team is TOP TIER! Sooooo good!
