Valentine's Day: Bistro 5

Have you made plans for Valentine's Day yet? If not, let me provide one more option for you, an option available for more than February 14.

At Bistro 5 love is in the air and romance is in our special four course menu. Join them from Tuesday, February 10, through Saturday, February 14, for a relaxing and sophisticated dining experience. In addition to their Valentine's Day pre fixe, they will be serving their usual menu. Whichever your preference, wine pairings are also available.
