If you like to pretend to be a French bistro, first thing is to learn how to write in French...

Quality Bistro never disappoints! Best Pommes purée anywhere, and the corn crème brûlée is not to be missed. I won't share mine! The lemon roasted chicken and branzino entrees were both delicious. Service could have been better but wasn't awful. The best part though is Jamie at the door! She is so friendly and outgoing, and she always makes me feel welcomed and valued. Love her!

The food and atmosphere are amazing!!! The service leaves a little to be desired. Our waitress Rosa was constantly distracted, it seemed like even getting water was a chore. Maybe there were too many people sitting in her section, but it was a shame that it put a damper on such a great restaurant.

This was our second time at QB. The first time, it was my bday and they made me feel very special leaving a card on the table and serving a birthday desert just for me. The second time, it did not disappoint. Every meal felt like a delicious surprise. The service was very attentive and quick, but not rushed. I am so glad we found this place in the theater district. I will be dining in QB again and I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family.

Service was slow. My booking was for 7:30pm and we arrived on time. But the table was not ready and my husband and I waited in a crowded and small lounge for 15min before we were seated. And when we were seated, while the waiter was friendly, he was so occupied taking others orders that when the table next to us who arrived later was already having their appetiser we hadn't even ordered... Food quality wise, the appetisers were fantastic but the steaks were just fine. We had the fillet and steak frites.

First of all our server Peter was absolutely amazing. He really made our meal a special experience. The food and cocktails were delicious. I would highly recommend the pork chop and the fried chicken and the creamed corn is a must try.

I went to Quality Bistro for the first time last week and will absolutely be coming back soon! The ambiance, service, and food was all top notch.Starting from the beginning, I was so thankful that they allowed me to sit down at our table and have a glass of water before my friend came to join. So many restaurants now won’t let you sit until the full party is there, so I really appreciated that!Our waitress was so friendly, had the menu fairly memorized, and came with recommendations in each section of the menu. We started with the butter service which is realistically the reason why we chose to eat there. Freshly churned butter, delicious accompaniment’s of ham, marinated leeks, sweet chorizo, pickles, radish, and crispy yet fluffy bread! I had the French onion soup which was a literal cauldron and I will be thinking about it until the next time I’m able to go. It had such a great depth of flavor and sooooo much cheese! Next we ordered the squash gnocchi which my friend really enjoyed. We ended the evening with the raspberry sorbet which was on a bed of mashed raspberries and topped with a pistachio shell and seemingly freeze dried raspberries!

The ambience and the atmosphere is incredible, one of the best in the city. It sets the expectations for food very high as you enter. There is a lot of stress on presentation of the food, which is great, but if you’re someone who’s looking particularly at how the food tastes, this might not be your place. Below are all the things we ordered along with individual ratings in parenthesis.We ordered French onion soup (4.5), caviar sliders (4), and oysters (2) for starters. For main entrees, we ordered a filet mignon (2.5) with roasted mushrooms (1) on the side and French onion burger (4). We finished our meal with floating island (4.5) and creme brûlée (4.5).The service was courteous and professional. The ambience is so beautiful that it makes up for overall experience.

I would’ve rated the a five but the waiter kept rushing us out! I didn’t have a good time because of that. There was no reason because we got there at 5 and they told us they need the table by 7 and I would leave by 6:30. By 5:45 they were already rushing us out and constantly coming and saying “are you done”. The French onion soup was amazing and I got a great cocktail.

Had theater tix at City Centre and stumbled onto this under the radar place. The staff were very accommodating when I requested a later reservation time. Danielle, Matthew and Gabby were great. The room is hopping, with a French vibe. The food is a little pricey but delicious. The roasted chicken (my barometer for a great French restaurant) was crispy and herbaceous. They have a cool butter service which we decided to forego. I would love to try it next time.

Had a great experience at quality Bistro the food was amazing. We were treated exceptionally well by Jamie Morris who was a delight. Everything was top tier and I look forward to coming back.

We we were celebrating my daughter's birthday and were advised to bring in our own cake, which we did. The folks next to us were enjoying their evening and drinking a lot.The management continuously brought over interesting and exotic desserts with a fire cracker for them with more alcohol. This “event” was not on the menu and therefore we had no access to it. In addition, when we sang “happy birthday” - no one paid attention. We were disappointed. What's up?

Tables a bit too close for the couples tables. Luckily we had very friendly neighbors. Really liked having a server who helps with food choices. He asked what looks good to me on the menu. Then helped by comparing the flavors of those dishes. I ended up choosing the scallops and they were delicious, cooked perfectly with a flavorful sauce. French onion soup was excellent. Filet au poivre was also very good, again cooked perfectly and a flambe display at the table. Spicy Caesar salad good, but standard and not spicy. Big desserts - loved the raspberry sorbet with the creamy sauce and fresh raspberries. Very enjoyable meal - would definitely go again.
