We had a very pleasant and nice meal at the AGO Bistro.
Everything was high quality and had great flavor. Will try this restaurant out again!

Given that the payment system was operating in 20th C mode, staff did VERY well with service. They let us know what was happening so that we understood that payment processing would be slow. I am sure that this was frustrating for staff, but they all maintained a very professional demeanour....and food was fabulous.

They make amazing drinks here. Very artistic. Excellent wine selection to complement the food menu. We had the soup of the day. Very good. The quiche was great The sea food main was cooked properly ( not over cooked). And very tasty. The lemon cake for dessert is mouthwatering. We love eating dinner here.

Solid for a museum dining experience. Clearly interested in quality before anything else, which the prices reflect (which is fair). Fun cocktails and the prix fixe is actually a pretty good deal.
Doesn't quite get a 5 star for me, however. My steak frites came out pretty bloody for a "medium-rare". And I get that the fine dining world doesn't really allow substitions, but I thought it was a bit unreasonable that my grandmother couldn't get a side of feta with her order.
Excellent sausages though!
Vegetarian options: Good selection.

It is a very clean service, and I know larger groups are more work but the last time I felt the need to review a restaurant was for the service not being the quality that is expected. Wait times on dishes were a bit of an issue, but it had the only kid friendly food options. I miss the old cafe in the basement with the giant cookies.

Food and service were outstanding and our request for a quiet space (due to hearing aids) was fulfilled. It isn't a cheap dining experience, but discount due to AGO membership is some help in this regard
We are repeat customers and thoroughly enjoyed your restaurant as we always do. We sat in the upper level. The food was absolutely exquisite, we enjoyed the salmon Nicoise, seafood platters, and your lovely quiche. We completed our meals with some of your lemon olive oil cake, and it was done just perfectly. Might also mention the presentation is ‘art on a plate' beautiful. Our server was delightful and made sure we were well looked after and we will most certainly return again.

Great accessible bistro. The fried artichokes were beautiful. The garlic aioli and frites were some of the nicest I have in a long time, hit the spot. Everything else was exactly as expected. So much so the conversation was about when are we coming back. Fantastic work chefs.

The food is tasty and delightfully and artistically presented on the plate. Every dish had depth of flavors to discover with each mouthful.Dessert to die for! Our service was explempary. We were asked about allergies or food sensitivies and checked with us when we ordered the food to make sure we were OK with everything that would be on the plate. The server was friendly and efficient and in passing when discussing the delicious dessert, told us to come back in the winter for the black forest cake "which is even more delicious."' We will!

This restaurant is ALWAYS excellent, especially the service. Sit in the alcove near the wall of wine bottles.

A very pleasant meal. The service was superb, the food beautifully presented and well-prepared, and the washroom spotless. It was the height of the noon meal time, so all tables were occupied, but the noise level was tolerable. Even with the full tables, the service was attentive and the food order arrived in good time.
