“ Almost broke my diet with all the yummy choices! Sat On the sidewalk terrasse for lunch. Started with a Shrimp Tempura. The shrimp were a little smaller then expected. Sauce was amazing with some zing to it. One of us had the Omelette which I tasted...wow! My wife had the burger wrapped in lettuce. I had the Smoked Salmon Salad. Impressed by the mountainous Salmon they provided. Very tasty...although I was eyeballing the burger. Haven’t been disappointed yet! ”

“ Loved this bistro; great choices of food, very good service loved the nachos, yum. Had the veggie burger with cheese and mushrooms, delicious service with smile ”
“ An absolute gem! We sat outside, and I loved it. The Filet de saumon grille nappe d’un yogourt grec aux herbes fraiches et concombres (grilled salmon fillet topped with Greek yogurt, fresh herbs, and cucumbers), served with vegetable pilaf rice (26 CAD), was a true delight. The salmon was perfectly grilled, and the yogurt-herb sauce was a refreshing twist. The Bruschettas (8 CAD) were a fantastic start, and the soup was simply delicious. Despite the generous portions, I couldn’t have been happier trying everything. Each dish was gloriously amazing. To top it all off, I enjoyed a coffee with a piece of something sweet that was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. I also liked that they served us water, too. Bistro Garage Cafe offers not just food, but a memorable dining experience. Highly recommended! ”
