Went for my 6 month anniversary with my girlfriend and we both loved it! Delicious food and wonderful ambiance. The staff was attentive and kind and gave us celebratory bubbly they made sure matched the alcohol we’d already ordered (iykyk)!

My husband and I visited Bistro Sansarre for the first time yesterday and discovered this little gem. The food was delicious, atmosphere romantic and service superb! We were taken care of by the manager, Dimitry, and it was evident that he has years of experience and made us feel so comfortable. We are already planning our next dining experience here!

Their wine flights were the best part of the evening, even though we had to ask repeatedly for additional drinks throughout the evening. The service was extremely slow, through out the night runners were offering plates to us thinking they were ours, when infact they were not.

Love this restaurant! The staff are friendly and accommodating while not being bothersome. The food was A+. The truffle deviled eggs with confit duck might have to be a weekly treat. Hubby got the salmon w/beet risotto. Delicious! I only have good things say about Bistro Sancerre. Our goto date night spot.

The online / website menu is inaccurate. While our main purpose for selecting this highly rated restaurant was to enjoy the crab cakes that are pictured and advertised online. To my disappointment, they did not have the crabcakes on the menu to select. The host/server apologized for the website not being updated, which according to her and management, they are all aware and were informed. Server further stated they have received multiple complaints and expressed disappointment from patrons. I settled for creamy pasta w Shimp, andouille, a tomatoes. A good selction, but it was not what drew me to this fine Italian restaurant. Totally disappointed! Additionally, while we tipped graciously, there were no good will jesture as an attempt to accommodate for the mis-advertising. To be fair, Overall, the service, waitress, servers, ambiance, and food was good.

The restaurant is large and well-appointed on the inside including an art gallery area for both paintings and sculptures. It was a nice treat to view this area with a glass of wine of which there is a huge selection. The outside seating area is also large and is part of bigger quad area with trees and a center water fountain. Given the nice weather during the visit, this setup makes for a quiet and serene dinning experience. There is nothing else really like it in the Old Town area. There is no traffic noise or exhaust fumes as with the eateries along King Street.
