Loved the food, service (our server Debbie was amazing) and vibrant atmosphere. Had the best quinoa burger. They had a bunch on veg options too. Highly recommend!

We came for brunch. Food was tasty, but service and atmosphere were lacking.Very loud, we were missing food items, and our table was forgotten about by the window.Requests for missing items also were very delayed. This left our food getting cold, as some items were requested to enjoy the meal, but were delivered so late that some of us started eating and finished our plate by the time something simple, our syrup and other condiments, were brought. There was no one in sight to wave down. And we were visiting important friends- which is where we wanted to spend our time, not hunting for assistance. And we never received one of our drinks. We were one of maybe 4 tables at that hour. No staff in sight except the host.All could have been easily avoided with some care and attention. Perhaps bringing condiments out first in a caddy (might not be stylish, but if your staff can’t remember to check, then it is at least functional). But perhaps things are not very organized in the back of house?We had a decent sized check, however, the business did nothing but the bare minimum to earn it. For which, we could have served ourselves somewhere else.Won’t be coming back, but we wish the business and its employees well.

We love this place! When we go out to Outer Limits, Bistro781 has become our go to lunch spot.While it is a bit pricey, the food is so worth it. We've tried a few different things but our go.to appetizer is the steak and cheese spring rolls.We have always had great service and it's a comfortable atmosphere.Parking: Street parking, so it's a bit hard to find it at times.

Excellent food, a separate vegan/vegetarian menu for those with dietary restrictions, an excellent drinks. They needed at least one more server on the floor to keep up with the flow of customers but those they had were cheerful, friendly and welcoming.

Everything about this place is incredible. It’s our favorite place to eat in Waltham! If you are lucky enough to have Debbie as your waitress, you are guaranteed to have an incredible night. She is truly the best waitress I have ever had.

So after giving bistro numerous chances to redeem themselves with their take out, after tonight I regret to announce I am done ordering from bistro 781. I ordered two cheese pizzas, when I showed up to pay, there was only one box of pizza, so I said, OK I’ll just take one, the receipt said margarita, after ordering two cheese pizzas i immediately confirmed the order to the front desk, which the employee said, it’s not a margarita, it’s cheese, just a typo. I left with my order then proceeded to my car and opened up the box to see it was a margarita pizza. I proceeded back into bistro and made it clear. It was a Margherita pizza. Then the manager came out and said give me five minutes and I will make you your two cheese pizza. After 15 minutes waiting patiently my pizzas arrived. I went home, opened up the boxes. One box was to my standards and the other box looked like it was thrown together with no care in the world. It looked undercooked, and the cheese looked like it was three days old. I’m not one to write reviews about restaurants but after this experience, I couldn’t help myself, BISTRO 781 has let me down too many times.My advice to whoever orders pizzas from bistro 781. Be sure to check your pizzas after pick up.
