as a family of 6, we thoroughly enjoyed our meals, I had the filet mignon. My daughter and son-in-law had short ribs, my husband and one of my grandsons had a hamburger, and my other grandson had salmon. All the dishes were exceptional, as was the service. I was a bit leery because we made reservations very late, but my fears were unfounded, everything about Bistro 38 was outstanding. Can't wait to return
