First time at this quaint restaurant. Wow, a hidden gem on Sarasota. Went there to celebrate husbands birthday. From the moment we walked in we knew we were in for an great experience and we were not disappointed. Bar staff were very attentive and courteous; the meal was absolutely delicious and the servers were knowledgeable about what was on the menu and always on hand to serve you. Well worth a visit. We plan on going one lunch time to savior other items on the menu. 

Business response:

Thank you Elsie Royle. We are so glad you enjoyed it and hope your husband's birthday was indeed happy! We look forward to your next visit for lunch.

Here from Miami to attend a group lunch. Couldn’t leave before I jumped online to rave about the incredible food. We are in a beautiful private room and it’s a perfect location for any private event. Bijou’s lunch special price isn’t much more than a fast casual meal. I once spent 2 days making Julia Child’s coq au vin and was put to shame. Highly recommend. 

Business response:

Wow, thanks Kira, we are so glad you enjoyed our Savor Sarasota Prix Fixe special. By the way that Coq au vin has been so popular during this promotion we are going to put it on our regular menu.
