My buddy invited me out to a french dinner for an early birthday celebration\n\nWe had a 7:45 reservation which we were very late for but we called to let them know that we were delayed but still coming. We finally arrived at the Bistro around 8:30 and were seated right away. One thing about Arizona is that most locals stay home if the temperature is below 70F :)\n\nThe vibe was very mellow with a cool European chalet decor and soft classic french music playing . \n\nOur table was perfectly situated in the far corner allowing us to survey the entire dining area. We received excellent service by a friendly and knowledgeable staff. We had a great selection of dishes ... escargots, foie gras, duck and bouillabaisse that were delicious and perfectly prepared. \n\nI loved everything about this bistro and thoroughly enjoyed my early Birthday dinner.\n\nThe owners are a husband and wife. The husband is the head chef who I personally thanked for an amazing meal. \n\nA must do spot for my 2013 Spring Training trip!"^^ .
