This is a high end restaurant. As such, it does not measure up.

My partner made valentines reservations after hearing good things and knowing this is an ‘09 institution. There was a reduced holiday dinner menu that was an appetizer, entrée and dessert for $65/person and we ordered a bottle of wine as well.

First time at Bistr09 and it was amazing! We went there to celebrate a birthday. The food was super delicious and the service was great! Also, the food portions are somehow bigger than what you expect at French restaurant. Will definitely be back!

Bistr09 can do no wrong in my opinion. I’ve been for both brunch and dinner and it’s always been delicious. Service is truly what separates this restaurant from the others. Whether I’ve been with a small group or a party, the service has been exceptional. We recently had my son’s baptism party there. Rose and the staff were so accommodating and kind. They made everything lovely and run so smoothly. I love this 09 gem and so will you!

What a beautiful experience. The blue point oysters brought my sleepy soul back to life, the dressing was absolutely scrumptious with the natural brine of the oysters. Bubbles were served cold and kept on ice. The Blanc de Blanc was delightful. The hostess and waiter were kind. I’d definitely come back for the Seared Foiegras with Apple and Duck Confit. My companion enjoyed their Grilled Quail with Parmesan Risotto and was also very impressed with Bistr09. If you are looking for a dinning experience to impress in San Antonio, Texas this French spot is my top recommendation.

Un délicieux coin de paradis. Wow. A special treat for the senses. Beautiful understated surroundings. Wonderful staff, you will be hard pressed to find a staff that is this friendly. Great place to people watch. And then there is the food. Obviously created and prepared by kitchen magicians. PURE MAGIC. The pork loin scalloppini with truffle mushrooms and pasta. What? I shared this meal, its large enough, but dont. You will want this to yourself, the sauce is a treat. And dont leave without trying the escargot. Get extra bread, lots of it. You will want to run it through the sauce again and again with no shame. Both pates were also worth fighting over. And try one of their house specialty drinks. They are mixing incredible delights that will have you wishing you didn’t have anything to do the next morning. This is not your run of the mill meal. This is not your run of the mill menu. It may be someplace our budget dictates only for special occasions. The up side…It will be special. Very.

Grabbed dinner with the wife at Bisto09 saturday night and was pretty disappointed with the food. We each started with the caesar salad. Not sure the what they were doing but the dressing was gross and missed the mark. For the entree we each ordered a special item. My wife got the lobster ravioli and I the Elk osso buco. First they messed up my wife’s dish by putting in the wrong item and when it finally came the lobster was over cooked and the raviolis undercooked. It was also very small to be an entree. The Elk was served very dry. After all this, they had a snafu with our check were they charged us for a drink we didnt get that took about 20 mins for them to figure out.

Wow wow wow. I had the short ribs, the shrimp crepe, and the escargot. Whether you’re thinking about a date night, trying out a new spot, or just becoming a regular at a wonderful place this is it. The owner is super cool and his wife is the nicest person ever. You will probably meet them if you go.
