What User doesn't like about Bistro 85:
Food was OK but staff works as a robots. No smile, no talk. Even was asked by business owner to be quite at our birthday party. Waiting for starter and alway had to ask to be approached. Not my choice. View all feedback. What User likes about Bistro 85:

The food was fantastic. It's just unfortunate that they skimp on the shrimp in each dish.

The restaurant offers excellent service, a beautiful atmosphere, and fantastic food at an affordable price.

The restaurant received mixed reviews with some diners not pleased with the service and food quality, while others had a delightful experience. Complaints included unenthusiastic staff, tough steak, and poor service. However, positive feedback highlighted delicious food, warm welcome, and a relaxed atmosphere. Some diners praised the steak and house wine. Overall, the restaurant seems to have both satisfied and dissatisfied customers.
