David's Bistro

There are numerous restaurants here in London. But there can only be a top five…. David’s Bistro makes that cut. For the past year, I’ve avoided David’s because I am a picky eater and only enjoy certain ingredients. Right now, their dishes suit my taste. David, the owner, greeted me with warm welcome. We’ve known each other for a while. Like most fine dining establishments, David’s will hang up your coat. After sitting you down, they will bring you as much bread as you want. It IS divine. Their menu includes an impressive array of wine and liqueurs, and several appetizers and entrees each. I ordered two appetizers to start. A duck and pistachio terrine came first. I sliced the terrine and placed it on a grilled baguette along with cognac orange marmalade. The other appetizer was a French onion tart with Marsala braised onions and mornay sauce. The tart was made of puff pastry. My entree was a boar belly on squash risotto with sage, bacon, and Parmesan. The boar was juicy and still tender, giving the perfect texture. Dessert was a dark chocolate marquise. It had hints of orange zest, very much like a Terry’s Chocalate Orange. The inside is classy. On their sound system, they play instrumental jazz. This complements the art-covered walls. Incidentally, servers dress up in business attire. David’s Bistro is and has been a premium restaurant for years. Newspapers and industry experts believe this day and age is the end of fine dining. David’s website acknowledges this, but they don’t plan to stop. Help them prove critics wrong.

Classic French and European cuisine with a modern twist

David's never disappoints for special occasion outings for our family. We headed here for my husband's birthday. Our server, Ryan led us joyously and impeccably through our entire visit, sharing the fine details of the ingredients and flavours of each entree. We had the duck confit, a special Lake Erie pickerel dish, seafood cassoulet, and perfectly cooked filet mignon. We explained that we had birthday cake waiting for us at home and wouldn't be getting dessert. No problem! They prepared a special "Happy Birthday" small plate with candle for the birthday celebrant! The ambience, vibe, mellow playlist and flavours make us coming back here year after year. Stay casual, chic and cool David's!

Never fails to please, they supply the effort to make our visit/event memorable. Food, wine and atmosphere are superb!!!!! Parking: Close by, reasonable.

We had a blast coming here for our 6 month anniversary. The food was lovely and the service was beyond superb. Our server, Ryan, was incredibly kind. We will definitely be returning!

Super friendly service and delicious and filling dishes.

OMG the LM&C!! Picked up the lobster Mac & cheese from the Sunday dinner menu and OMG!! It is without a doubt the BEST Mac and cheese I’ve ever had. The chunks of lobster are immense and the flavours? Rich, creamy and succulent. This is our go to treat restaurant in London. The service has never disappointed and the menu is always varied and spectacular. Wine pairings with each course is a special treat. And the sticky toffee pudding is to die for.
