PANI Bistro

Three of us came here for a late lunch on a Sunday afternoon around 3pm. It was pretty busy, but we were able to get a table immediately either inside, or out. We opted to sit inside.

The ambiance of the restaurant is a solid ten!! Absolutely beautifully decorated! Every detail is so well thought out and beautifully executed! The floor, walls, lights, dishes, tables, menus, placemats, etc. are all enchanting!

It was difficult to decide what to order, but I ended up ordering the savory crepe with spinach, mushrooms, and mozzarella. My daughter ordered the steak with fries and my other daughter ordered the chicken fettuccine Alfredo. For drinks I ordered “Follow the rainbow”, my daughter ordered the lychee martini and my other daughter ordered a tea. Everything was delicious! The portions aren’t huge. I finished every bite of my crepe. I tried the steak and it was so good! The sauce in it was amazing! The fettuccine was also good. My daughters both had a little bit of leftovers to take home.

We joined the rewards club and enjoyed a free piece of the chocolate cake. It was very good. We could have gotten 20% instead, which I didn’t realize, and it would have been a better deal- but when I asked the manager about it her said it was only after 6pm, and the restaurant closes at 8! 😳 It closes at 7pm during the week, so not a lot of time to use the 20% off discount.

The only issue I had with the restaurant is that the service is pretty slow. The lady sitting next to us yelled at a server or manager 🙄 because she had asked for bread 20 minutes earlier and never received it. Our waiter was attentive but we did have to wait for a long time for several things. It took a long time for him to initially come by (which he apologized for), and then it took a long time to get the check, and then a long time to pay. Our check was $143, after taking the $16 piece of cake off, and before tip.

The restrooms could be better. Just 2 single stalls- not a lot to accommodate so many people in a restaurant.

Overall we LOVED the restaurant and the experience. I will definitely be back with other friends.
