45 Bistro

The filet was cooked perfectly. The carpaccio and shrimp with grits had amazing flavor. The fried burrata salad was extremely flavor full. Great service! Well stocked bar, and overall very relaxing atmosphere.

Service was phenomenal & everything was so delicious!

This isn’t a full review because we didn’t get past the front door to try any food or drinks due to the horrible attitude we encountered. Backstory: my spouse and I have never been to Bistro 45 before. It’s his birthday and we wanted to try a new place. I didn’t realize we needed a reservation, but I knew it was a Friday night and would be busy, so we arrived right when they opened at 5:00. I wasn’t sure if we entered the correct door because I didn’t see any signage indicating that was the entrance, so I asked someone that appeared to work there if this was the entrance. She said “to what?” so I said “Bistro 45” and she said “yep” and walked away. My spouse and I stood at the entrance for a couple of minutes looking around because there was no host or greeter or any staff. The same woman came back and asked what we wanted. My spouse said a table for 2, to which she replied that they’re all booked up, kitchen doesn’t open until 6:00, and we could sit at the bar “if there are seats available” and she walked off again. We were two of four customers in the entire restaurant and she seemed very unwelcoming and unfriendly, so we decided to leave. I looked at the website before we left for the restaurant and it didn’t mention anything about the kitchen opening an hour after the restaurant did nor did it mention anything about needing a reservation. The woman we encountered was very rude and spoke to us like we were majorly inconveniencing her by existing. I’m sure the food and drinks are incredible, but customer service matters and this was not it.

Had dinner here on New Year's Eve. Wonderful food, atmosphere and the service was superb. Highly recommend it.

Dwayne the bartender was such a nice person. He made our time here so enjoyable! Food and drinks were excellent!
