| - Le Bistro Du Beaujolais is absolutely one of the finest restaurants one can get a meal at in the Cleveland/Northeast Ohio area. For Valentine's Day, I wanted to take my girlfriend to someplace special and romantic and, after much 'research', decided on this cozy gem in Olmsted Falls (and thankfully so). Nestled in a cute shopping area devoid of any box stores or chain restaurants you'll find a welcoming building that looks more like a home than a restaurant, which is good thing.
You are welcomed into the restaurant by the friendly and charming French owner and the atmosphere is warm and romantic; the dining areas broken up into rooms further cultivating the intimate feeling of the place. The service is absolutely impeccable, there was not one moment we waited for our water or wine to be refilled, silverware after each course is removed with clean ones delivered on a platter, and the crumbs wiped away by the server as well. Classy.
Perhaps even more impressive was the food. The menu changes seasonally at Le Bistro, as told by our server which adds to the fresh culinary experience. For starters we had the tarte l'oignion which was a deliciously creamy onion filling atop a delicately flaky crust. We both ordered the Roasted Duck reduced in a cherry port wine sauce which was most definitely some of the best duck either of us have ever. I cannot even describe how well paired the cherries were with the duck, absolutely gourmet. It was hard to top the main course but our homemade dessert, a vanilla peach cake, was the perfect end to our meal.
Again, this place is an absolute gem in the area and some of the finest French dining I've had. If youre looking for a romantic, welcoming, and gourmet night out, certainly come to Le Bistro Du Beaujolais, we definitely will be again.
