No surprise that this place has been a local favorite for years. The menu, mostly French inspired, isn’t large but changes frequently with rich, fantastic fare. A personal favorite is the escargot. The wine list, is also full of great finds that pair nicely and at a surprisingly reasonable price. Do note, there is an elevated step in the middle of the restaurant that may make it difficult for those with limited mobility or a wheelchair.

Celebrated our anniversary at B&J Bistro, absolutely the best French cuisine from chef Masato. Ask Stephen (the owner) for wine selection, you cannot go wrong with his advice. To add more of the effect of surprise to our reservation, I asked for five-course meal chef testing choice. It was amazing adventure and real pleasure to meet the chef in person and listen to his story for each dish he served. We are in love with this local unique place and will be back for more great food and service. By the way, their menu is very affordable, including drinks.

Our first time to this adorable restaurant was such a great experience. Fantastic service- Kevin knows the menu inside and out! He made great wine suggestions on their extensive drink list. What impressed me most, was the chef’s eagerness to prepare a vegan dish and appetizer for me- and they were both delicious. Most places in my experience see that as an annoyance or hindrance… but the chef accepted the challenge and made two great dishes on the fly that were delicious, and THAT is the mark of an excellent, experienced chef. Would love to see some plant-based dishes on the menu in the future, but for now I’m happy knowing they will accommodate me. We will be back!

One of the better meals I’ve had. The rack of lamb in blackberry sauce was the best I’ve had anywhere and I’ve eaten at Michelin starred restaurants. The pate was smooth, savory and we loved it. The dessert was light and sweet, perfect. The escargot was good.

An excellent French Bistro. You can expect traditional French Bistro menu items at D&J Bistro in generous American portion size. We been here a few times and always leave happy and satisfying. Good selection of by the glass wine/cocktail menu and seasonal menu items. My husband and I ordered the escargot, steak frites and bouillabaisse this time and everything was delicious. We will be back when they start serving pan seared foie gras in the winter.

Celebrated valentine’s a little early this year. Mushroom soup was delicious. Chicken Cordon Bleu was a large portion that I couldn’t finish it. Atmosphere was very elegant. Staff was very polite and attentive to our table.

Menu has a nice variety of options. Service was first class & the food was excellent! We shared an escargot appetizer. I got the surf & turf while the others got the soft shell crab special.
