A solid bistro
The ambiance at Bistro 61 is very pleasant, a true neighborhood French Bistro, low on lights. I found the food to be very good. I had a rabbit stew that was delicious although it was not a stew the way I know that dish as small pieces, it was the entire thigh and leg, but tasty nevertheless. The endive salad was delicious. My husband had the moules marinieres and he said he’d had better, I thought they very just fine. The French Fries nice and crispy. The service was good and we never lacked, but from our seats we could see the wait staff glued to the screen of their cell phones instead of looking at the customers. The poor manager was all over the place, most attentive and observant.

Worth it!
I don't usually write reviews unless its awful or fantastic. I eat in or takeout from Bistro 61 quite often. After 3 years, I can honestly say that I have never had a bad meal here. The consistency of their food is excellent. When they are very busy, the service can be spotty but overall is friendly and inviting. I highly recommend it.

Pleasant bistro experience
A comforting menu complimented by a simple but pleasing wine selection, this bistro is an excellent weekday spot (or weekend if noise doesn't turn you off). Maybe a little salty.. But overall a pleasant experience.

Amazing Burger!
This place has AMAZING food! Ordering muscles as an apetizer is a must. For the entree i had their burger which is topped with a slice of foie gras... oh my goodness, this was the best burger i have ever eaten. I'm drooling just thinking about it! I highly recommend!

Very pleasant but noisy
The food was very good with generous portions and the staff was attentive and pleasant. The problem is that the tables are quite small and jammed together. The noise is loud and it bounces (walls are brick and both ceiling and floor are hard surfaces). People need to talk louder and louder to converse beyond the background noise level, so it just builds up. (Percussion music from bar does not help.) Some people just love a noise "buzz" in a restaurant. If so, this is for you (but not for me.)

Fabulous!
Bistro 61 is wonderful in every respect: fresh, innovative, delicious food; friendly and attentive staff; cozy, authentic bistro atmosphere; and a great value (ex: all you can eat mussels & fries with a glass of wine for $25!). Seriously, just go here, you will not be disappointed!
