Bistro 243 is a distinctly 3-star restaurant.
There's nothing wrong with Bistro 243, but there's also nothing spectacular going on. I had the Monte Cristo (w/salad) which was acceptably tasty. The service, decor, and price ($30 for two. Coffee & tip included) were again, nothing fantastic and nothing horrible. No real complaints. I just wasn't wowed.
It seems Bistro 243 exists as the Salieri to (fellow King Street breakfast joint) Petite Dejeuner's Mozart. For those who aren't willing to endure the perpetual line outside Petitle Dejeuner, the mediocre Bistro 243 is only a few steps away.
Low expectations will ensure an enjoyable dinning experience.
