Restaurant is cozy with warm lighting, beautiful green plants and black and gold tones. Every bite of our food - artichoke hummus, bison carpaccio and charred cabbage - was so delicious and went perfectly with our French Chenin Blanc. Definitely will be going back and making this a regular spot, for a date or catch up with friends.

Our first time at Bar Chouette won’t be our last. Our server was excellent - friendly, efficient and good recommendations. We LOVED the prawn katsu sando and recommended it to the table beside us and they loved it too! Hanger steak tartare was delicious as well. Plenty to choose from and nice to be able to order a few plates at a time to share and to space out the meal. Thank you and we’ll be back!
