Nicole was a wonderful waitress with her recommendations, service, and knowledge for our dinner for 8. The cheese garlic knots were delicious! Fish of the day was grouper which was devoured! We may a lot of happy plates.

I came here excited for a good meal, but what I witnessed absolutely killed my appetite. While dining, I stepped into the restroom and saw a kitchen worker use the stall, walk right out, and head back into the kitchen without washing his hands.

Now, I’m all for adventurous dining experiences, but “mystery seasoning” from the restroom is NOT something I ever want sprinkled into my entrĂ©e. Hygiene isn’t optional in the food business, it’s literally the baseline of trust between a restaurant and its guests.

The atmosphere was fine, the food was good, but the image of a kitchen staff member skipping the sink is something I won’t forget. Management really needs to address this. Until then, I can’t in good conscience recommend eating here.

Ali's Bistro is one of those spots that you don't want to miss. The food is prepared in such a way that represents the beauty of culinary. The antipasto salad with the fresh vegetables was a wonderful light meal.

We made reservations for 530. The hostess wanted to tell us that we could only stay there for an hour because someone else was coming in at 7 o’clock that evening, which was very disappointing. Our waiter took 30 minutes to bring our food in, we didn’t see him again until almost 7 o’clock, when we saw our check. We won’t be going back there again. The service was awful. The waiter who took our order was 61, I don’t know what his name is, but it definitely was not the experience I wanted to wanna be in. I hate to happen next customer that walks in and be treated the way we did regardless if you’re busy or not that way To should’ve came back to our table and ask how everything was going and not once did he did that.

I have know about Ali's Bistro for a while, but never had the chance to go. What a massive mistake that was. My wife and I were invited to celebrate my wife's best friend's birthday but they had to cancel because of a family emergency. We decided to make it our date night, and O My God, absolutely amazing, first thing we were greeted with a great smile from the hostess Laura and seated promptly. Osh had recommended that we get Gwen since his lovely wife was off on Sunday's. What an amazing young lady, funny, professional, knowledgeable and such a pleasure to meet. She did an awesome job even after meeting me. I ordered the garlic knots and lasagna per Osh's recommendation and it was the best I have ever had, fresh lovingly made and to die for. If I could give then 100 stars I would. Well run and the food is second to none. Much Love to Osh and his amazing staff.

I’m visiting the area for business, and decided to check out Ali’s Bistro. Actually, I went here twice in the last week. The first time I ordered the lasagna, along with the bread and olive oil which are to die for. I also ordered the rhubarb basil cocktail which was delicious. Topped it all off with tiramisu and cappuccino- all of that meal was incredible!!! Highly recommend. The second time, however, I ordered the ribeye, and I was SO disappointed. To start off, on my first bite I bit into a large piece of bone chip. I proceeded to discover that the ribeye had so many tendons I could barely chew through any of it. Besides that, the potatoes and onions side were cold. I was truly sad afterwards, because I was starving and had really been looking forward to the meal, and because the steak was $60. I took the food to-go because I don’t like to complain but I tossed it immediately after because it was inedible. However, both times I visited the waitresses were wonderful, and make the visit well worth it in itself. I’d say going with the bread and olive oil appetizer along with any of their pastas would be a good bet.
