UPDATE: my previous rating was a 3/5 because of the food. I must have gone on a bad day or maybe it was because it just opened in the new location and they were adjusting. But when I went in Dec 2023 the food was excellent - everything from the appetizer (onion tart) to the main course (scallops) to the ice cream desert (chocolate fudge brownie) was delicious. Changing rating to 5 stars. Old review below: Love the location and space. Service was good. Food was just average. French Onion Soup was average- nice and cheesy but lacked flavor.. Pork was average- not much seasoning and lukewarm. Mushroom Tagliatelle was below average. Escargot was decent. Bread and butter were good. Mocktails were excellent. Old Fashioned was good. Manhattan was average. Overall a lovely atmosphere but disappointing culinary experience.

Alright, today's meal at Bistro Vendome was out of this world. Upon arrival we were pleasantly greeted by the two bartenders Bobbe and Masha who got us seated right away. We weren't sure if we wanted to drink or not so Bobbe made some great suggestions and delivered a delicous Rosemary Almond cocktail for both of us to try. We then started with a Cajun Gumbo garnished with Potato salad, which was pleasantly seasoned and well executed. The dish took us right back to Louisiana. Then the Alsacian Schnitzel! My goodness the Cassoulet and the orange marmalade was the best dish I've had in a while. If you haven't visited this quaint restaurant in Park Hill, do yourself a favor and get these dishes and say hi to the team. They're great!

Our meals were phenomenal. The wine selection was very good. I loved the Bordeaux 3 of us ordered the hanger steak and it was cooked perfectly. We loved the mussels. And they had wonderful GF bread and a chocolate soufflé that was also GF! Our server was very friendly , attentive and knowledgeable. I wish I took pictures ! We will definitely be back.

We were bummed when tables closed last year but Bistro Vendome will be a very welcomed addition to the neighborhood! My wife and I had an early date night the other night and wow it was great (good luck getting a reservation anytime soon)! They have only been open for about a week at the Kearney location so I think getting in will only get easier as time goes on. Our dinner was fantastic! Spring for the extra cost for the fancy butter! We had both, and the imported butter was great! Then they brought out with the french allium and lobster bisque soups! Dang! Then we moved to the escargot gratinee and moules! The escargot was absolutely fantastic!! The muscles were good, but definitely overshadowed by the escargot. For our dinner we had the Duck à l’Orange. No surprise, amazing as well! Dessert is was an ice cream sampler and it was a great way to end the dinner. We will definitely be back! Very excited to have another top notch restaurant in the neighborhood!
