| - This restaurant is as good as it gets. I have changed my last meal on earth to include anything from Atlas Bistro.
Now for my handy tips...this place is BYOB, so bringing your own booze means it's time to splurge on that nice bottle that you have tucked away for a rainy day! Having a wine store attached to the restaurant is DANGEROUS...but darn convenient when you aren't quite sure what type of wine/champagne you want to commit to until "Game Time". We started with a 1/2 bottle of champagne freshly purchased from AZ Wine next door. Then followed with an amazing French Red.
The menu changes daily however there are a few wonderful dishes that stay on the menu, which include the sweetbreads, endive salad, and the delicious duck dish. I went with a seasonal mushroom starter w/goat cheese (YUM!), procuitto & melon salad, duck, and yikes...I have forgotten what I had for dessert. Damn French wine! Needless to say, this was hands down, one of the best meals I've had in my life. Manfriend says that EVERYTHING here is consistantly good, so I would try anything your palate desires.
Reservations are a MUST, since there are only 7 or 8 tables. Atlas Bistro has many regulars that go in weekly, so many of their tables are already reserved each Friday or Saturday night. This is a great place for a romantic date or a birthday or anniversary celebration.
The owners are AWESOME...it's rare that you ever get to meet the owners much less have them serve you and suggest dishes. Atlas Bistro is a complete treat and I can't wait to go back!
