So… a year or so ago this was a 5 star rating, but after getting take out recently (we picked up), I have to lower the rating. Same dish, take out both times—the swordfish—was AMAZING previously, the stuff of dreams. When I got it this week, it wasn’t particularly edible. Incredibly overcooked with a basic sweet potato with a slit on the side. I’d been looking forward to that fish for so long that the disappointment was massive. There’s nothing worse than a having celebration dinner, and then paying $30 for a dish that you can’t eat. I don’t want to be disappointed with the restaurant, so I may just try again and not order the fish, but I’m hesitant.
Not good.Soda was flatter than the service.Calamari was bland, tempura fried and swimming in lemon juice. Also more peppers that actual squid. Solid at $17….The honey chicken sandwich was on par with a Wendy’s or another fast food entity.Definitely would not return.
A nice place to dine - patio is pleasant so is inside. Entrees are pricey but sandwiches are more reasonable. Less crowded than Sophia’s, and they have live music sometimes.
My friend and I wanted to try a new restaurant and ended up at Birch Street Bistro. We LOVED the outside patio. There was a 10-15 min wait due to business but the service was phenomenal.Kira, our waitress, was beyond accommodating. She was very friendly and had a great sense of humor, we will request her again when we come back!!The pesto gnocchi was to die for, and the cheesy garlic bread, for it's price, was well worth it. Has just enough of a quantity to share. The pork dumplings were amazing as well!Great wine and alcohol selection, mixed drink menu was very well-priced with a huge variety!
Been here several times over the last few weeks and have always had a good experience. The food is delicious and the drinks are great. The servers have all been very nice. I like to come here because there is never a wait for a table. Sometimes they do have live music, which can be a little loud.
Jen was our server, a wonderful experience…she went the extra steps to serve us. Food was excellent and a great price point, I highly recommend the vibe of this place.
we had a lovely time here. we asked to split a couple 0f menu items and the kitchen staff actually plated the salad on two plates. that was a nice touch. the sword fish was very good. this bistro fits right into this neighborhoodjust love it.

Best cocktails around! Strong, tasty, and $10. Espresso martini and apple martini are excellent. Salmon plate is good, and the Athena pasta was ok. Interior atmosphere is great as well. There was music playing a it can get lively.
