Ate here as a fancy date night spot as we were staying at an AirBnB locally. First off the bat, the waitress was personable and knowledgeable about the menu and cocktails. Their cocktails are unique and delicious. We ordered the chips and dip for an appetizer and let me tell ya… we could’ve eaten a giant bowl of them. You can tell they were made to order; razor thin crispy chips with just the right amount of freshly cracked black pepper, paired with an amazingly creamy and flavorful dip. Onto the main course; my partner got the airline chicken and I got the sirloin steak. I am generally very picky when it comes to steak and normally cut off every little bit of fat I can see. But this steak? I was able to eat in its entirety. Cooked to a perfect medium, it melted in my mouth and the cabaret butter took it over the top. The mashed potatoes were creamy and rich, but not overpowering and the sautéed green beans added a nice freshness to the dish. My partner said the chicken was perfectly seasoned and juicy with a crispy skin. As for dessert, the cheesecake was decadent, creamy and crumbly with a rich buttery graham cracker crust. All and all, I would spend my money here again in a heartbeat the quality is unmatched.

Amazing food. EXTREMELY slow service. Took 15 mins to get water, 45 mins to get bread and about an hour to get our food. Food was phenomenal and almost made up for the wait. This was with a reservation mind you. They really need to hire more waiters staff for the weekends, poor waitress and hostess where flat-out.

Great time with friends, that’s what it’s all about … the bistro nailed it, thank you Bill and staff . Great job! My wife had a dietary restriction and the chef made her something off the menu to accommodate. Much appreciated.

Stopped by for dinner. Dinner was fabulous, drinks were unreal they were so good. I was tired so I had a "wake me up martini!" OMG. The steak & fries were perfect the Scallops cooked to perfection. Their menu changed by season so you are always in for a delicious treat! The waitress Stephanie made us feel right at home. Cant wait to go back the next time I'm in the neighborhood!
The food was great! Cute little place with great atmosphere and music the night we went. Tasty mocktails and orange cheesecake that was amazing.

Oswego’s best restaurant. Terrific food, stellar service, attractive decor, and good music on Thurs-Saturday. The oysters appetizer and the short ribs entree are my favorites, but it’s hard to go wrong. The menu changes with each season, and the creative cocktail menu is frequently updated, too. Great place for anything from a celebratory dinner to a casual drink at the bar while enjoying some fine local music.
