The Business Bistro in Evanston offers a pleasant dining experience with attentive service and a welcoming atmosphere. Customers enjoy their entrees, with some dishes like the chicken tangine and mussels receiving mixed reviews. The restaurant’s location in downtown Evanston is lovely, situated at the street level of the Bank One building at the intersection of Davis and Orrington streets. Its art and ambiance add to its charm, creating a cozy and inviting environment. During a Bastille Day celebration, guests appreciated the outdoor seating, listening to an accordion player, and sharing oysters and mussels, which contributed to a festive vibe. The staff is friendly and attentive, making it a great place for special occasions like a birthday brunch. Recent visitors praised the delicious food, highlighting the chicken tagine, which was large enough for an encore meal, and the duck pate and lamb meatballs as appetizing starters. The wine recommendations and Tunisian rose cocktail were well received. The restaurant also serves the best profiteroles ever, according to some guests. The outdoor seating is covered and heated, allowing guests to enjoy their meals outside even in cooler weather. Despite some minor issues with portion size perceptions and timing, the restaurant remains a promising addition to the local dining scene, with excellent service and tasty food.
