Restaurant Review - Nook Bistro

www.nookbistro.com

I heard about this place months ago and have been looking for an excuse to go. Color me excited that I finally found one.

Nook Bistro cracks me up, which is one of the many reasons why I like it. For one, check out their schedule - they're not open for lunch on Saturday. Monday through Friday you can go get some lunch, but not Saturday, the one day I can actually get over there. Oh well, just meant that they'd have to wait longer for my money.

I called up around 7ish on Saturday to see if they had any tables open. They don't take reservations after 7:30pm but we could go over there and see how long the wait is. I'm telling you, I'm loving this place more & more. We get there about 7:30ish and there are about 4 people ahead of us for a table. How about the bar? Oh yeah, baby, the bar it is.

Here's the set up: Its a small place, tucked into a corner of a minimall (hence the name). There are tables along 3 walls of the place, with a communal type of table in the middle, the bar which seats about 6 or 8 and then a small space to wait for your table. The bar only serves beer & wine and very comfy to eat at, so its rather obvious it was built with that in mind.

The waitstaff was friendly and witty and the food was quite yummy. They're friendly to carnivores and herbavores alike. Surprisingly, the prices match the food and the atmosphere. It would be a great date place but definately make reservations if that's your intention, same goes if you're going with more than one person. Otherwise, winging it does work.
