Bastien's Restaurant

Bastien's is my FAVORITE. Everything I've ever had has been perfect! Fried chicken is best I've had in a long time. Soups are excellent. Service is very good and everyone I've taken there LOVE the steaks! Super drinks too.

Don't forget dessert.  View Less … View More

Come on 4 or more stars?. We used to eat here years ago. It was nice. Retro, inexpensive, decent but NOT great food. We had not been back in some years. We were asked when we got there if we had a reservation. At Bastiens? The place is never full.

Then we got the menu. Had not eaten there in years. And the prices were...well high. For the Bastiens of old. Maybe this was a new Bastiens. I mean, there were no more one tooth waitresses...

So I had the $20 chicken dinner. Jebus. Everyone else from the pasta to the steak was thinking, what the hell.I am paying this much for this little. This little service (are you ready to order yet? How about now? How about now?), flavor? Quality?

I specifically asked if the chicken gravy was homemade. Yes. It was poo. Pure crap. And tasted like beef gravy out of a jar.

Four meals and four glasses of wine for $140 including the tip. Do not waste your time. This place was worth lerss than half that.  View Less … View More

Bastien's Comments. We were party of 7 meeting for Tuesday evening of fun. I had heard alot about the history of the place and looked forward to being with friends. First, I will say the food was great. Probably the best 'hamburger' I've ever had. That's where it ends. The service was very slow. The pricing was too expensive. And the drinks were suspect. One of the members of our party said his margarita tasted like soda. The wine glasses appeared to be less than 4 oz and pricey for house wine. The owner was on-site and when asked casually a question about getting drinks, she rudely informed me I would have to wait for my waitress. While we had a fun night with friends, I would not return for the experience.  View Less … View More

Just so-so. I've read many rave reviews of this place, and being very close to us we wanted to try it. I have to say I was pretty disappointed. The sugar steak was pretty tough and not very flavorful. The vegetables were unpeeled carrots that were barely cooked, and some brown broccoli. My wife's salmon tasted farmed and not very fresh. The twice-baked potato was pretty good though. Service was slow despite it being a Wednesday night, and worst of all she forgot our 5-year-old's grilled cheese sandwich. Not until she came out to ask how our food was did she say "Oh, the cook must have forgotten it!" like it wasn't her job. In the end he loved the grilled cheese, but that was the highlight of the evening.

Maybe it was the coupon we used or something, but we won't be going back with or without a coupon. The atmosphere had potential, though it's starting to seem kind of seedy.  View Less … View More
