I went to this restaurant with my girlfriend and a friend, and it was one of my most disappointing restaurant experiences. We had reservations at 8:00p.m., we were on time, and we had to wait 15 minutes to sit at our table. It took another 20 minutes or so just to order some drinks. The environment was cold, so you couldn't help to feel anything but bitterness. Basically, the service was terrible, the waiting time between courses was ridiculous, and the food was very dry, bland, and not hot. I thought that perhaps we were the only ones getting bad service, but all of the tables in the restaurants were waiting at least 15 minutes per course, and no, the place was not short of staff, nor was it packed with customers. On a good note however, their pino noir was quite delicious, and the bus girl was very attractive. If you like to waste your time and money on below average food and service, then the Pinot Bistro is the perfect place to dine. Just remember to bring a jacket in the fall and winter, because it gets pretty cold in there.
