Bistro Maison

  Definitely, make reservations. We were there on a Thursday night in August and the restaurant appeared full. It is located in an old house near the east end of the... read more old downtown. Plenty of street parking though the main street in Mc Minnville is partially closed to traffic; but it was walking distance from our B & B.

We were seated immediately, told the specials and given the wine list. Indoor table near the doors to the outside patio which was not in use the night we were there. Good variety of menu items which should offer something for all tastes. Wine list was good as well.

Service was excellent. Before ordering dessert we were asked if we were there for a special occasion; I originally said no as we really were not. The server suggested we might make it a special occasion so we said we were celebrating a belated wedding anniversary' which was actually true since we had not gone out on our actual anniversary due to covid precautions.. Dessert arrived with a sparkler and greetings of happy anniversary from neighboring tables and staff. A very nice touch!

The food was superb and the presenation even more impressive.

  The escargot was the best I've had, and the French Onion soup delicious. My friend had the caprese salad with jumbo shrimp that was unexpectedly good. We sat on the... read more patio for our 7 p.m. reservation, and it was lovely, even at 97°F. The only major drawback was we were upcharged on almost everything. We asked one of our 4 servers to change the bill to reflect the correct prices and we were still upcharged, although they fixed 3 of the 4 overcharges. We believe that the errors were too consistent to be unintentional. Tables were too close together and didn't meet the 6 foot requirement for covid-19. We had planned to go back for dinner the next night, but after this experience decided against it. Not sure what is going on with the upcharging, but it is alarming.
