Rêve Bistro - Lafayette

We ordered apps and a cocktail each. The gougeres were okay. The pate was a let down. It was bland and the texture is not even close to a pate. It was chunks of something that was rough chopped and put in a terrine. It was busy and the service was sparse.

Classic French bistro style cooking. Yes, steak and frites, but also many seasonal dishes. Charcuterie is excellent. House made pâté and rillette. Menu changes so check. I do wish dessert menu changed more often.

I had not had a chance to taste food of this quality in a very long time: from the Cougères, to the French Onion Soup, the Salmon with mashed potatos and Artichokes (delicious and subtle) and finishing with the pear tart. This was very special.

We were totally happy, even blown away, by our experience. Four long time friends joined to celebrate all our birthdays at a special dinner...average age 81. We had an unforgetable meal at Reve; staff was all wonderful and friendly and our waiter was extraordinary (the big guy). The food was just stellar and we enjoyed everything from salad to dessert. Brought a bottle from one of our cellars that went with our meals and the corkage was reasonable given their wonderful wine list. Some of us had been before and and this place will never disappoint. It really is a creative space and you feel that energy. 10 stars at least.

We had the rouget entree last night, ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! The variety of flavors was so wonderful, we paused between bites just to savor the moments ? Thank you for the perfect meals!
