"It doesn't get any better than this in Carefree!\n\nWe've been waiting for a decent restaurant to open in Carefree...looks like its finally here!!!\n\nLast night we stopped in and were greeted by a fabulous server by the name of Thea. She was very knowledgable about the wine list, so right off we were impressed. Come to find out, Thea was the bartender at Carefree Station for 8 years before it closed. We miss Carefree Station, especially their homemade potato chips that use to be served for free at the bar! \n\nI digress, back to Carefree Bistro...anyway, my partner ordered salmon over beet salad and I ordered the most delicious chicken breast and shrimp dish. It arrived bathed in a delicious sauce with large caper berries and artichokes. Fresh Brussels sprouts, carrots and rosemary potatoes rounded out the meal.\n\nIt was the perfect complement to the Oaked Chardonnay that Thea recommended. \nBut the piece de resistance was dessert! \nProfiteroles served with homemade chocolate gelato. \nNow THAT'S how you win my heart.\n\nWe'll be back!\nNOTE: their outdoor patio is pet friendly and a nice option for those seeking gourmet food in Carefree. I don't know of a better choice in Carefree!"^^ . "0"^^ . . . .
