I've heard a lot of great things about this restaurant so I was looking forward to going there. I don't think I would consider this an 'up-scale' establishment. I had the duck and although the dish was good, I wouldn't say it was worth the price. The atmosphere was okay. We were seated in a large booth which provided a lot of privacy, so much so, that I couldn't tell you what the rest of the restaurant looked like! I don't think that I will be returning to Burbs Bistro and Bar any time soon. As my rating indicates... Meh, I've experienced better.
