We hd a wonderful evening celebrating Christmas Eve here. We had a later reservation and everyone we interacted with from the host to bartender to our server made us feel welcome. Our server Caleb was outstanding. The food, drinks and dessert were fabulous. Highly recommend the Local Bistro for your next special night or even a casual night out. Thank you to all the staff that worked on a holiday and made our evening so special. We will definitely be back.

Loved the food! Loved watching the planes. Highly recommend when visiting and I would come back. We are from Cleveland and live near the airport. As a kid, 1970s, it was a big deal to sit and watch planes in our car. So this was really fun for me.
