Restaurant is cozy with warm lighting, beautiful green plants and black and gold tones. Every bite of our food - artichoke hummus, bison carpaccio and charred cabbage - was so delicious and went perfectly with our French Chenin Blanc. Definitely will be going back and making this a regular spot, for a date or catch up with friends.

Bridgette Bar has somehow managed to pair an intimidate dinner party feeling with an exclusive experience, it feels a little like a fancy dinner party hosted at a friends, but with a menu and cocktail selection that could only be accomplished by professionals. Each plate had a special, delicious twist and the t-bone steak was perfection.
