"Bistro Maison: We love this place. If we didn't live two and a half hours away, we'd be there every week. The charming, homey atmosphere with classic jazz music and French decor is soothing and wonderful, and getting harder and harder to find. The focus on classic French cooking is a treat. Eat here and you'll understand the gift Julia Child brought to the States in the 1960's. The entire staff is excellently trained, friendly, and attentive, even when stretched thin serving both indoors and the patio. They have complete understanding of the meu and cuisine, so they can expertly guide you to a perfect meal assembled from the deep menu. The food is world class. A highlight from our last visit was the truffle and morel pate- as local as you can get. Classics like escargot and pommes frites are perfect- you'll never find better anywhere in the world. Portions are extremely generous. We ordered two appetizers, a salad, the pork chop, and a side of frites. We split that and ended up taking half home with us. Had the same delectable meal a second time. And after that, the potato puree became potato pancakes the next morning for breakfast. Talk about value. You can feel from the moment you walk into Bistro Maison that the owners are doing all of this out of love for food and love for serving the best to people. You should go."
