The mission stays the same though. Good food ties us to the memories and the people we love. I share the memories and the food I love. 3 years ago I started a little food truck breakfast in a little bar parking lot, today we call that parking lot ours and that little bar, is now Little Riggs.

    Don’t miss the tuna toast or steak tartare. Chowder best I’ve ever had! Steak frites on point. Great food. Great drinks. Casual but nice enough for a date night with class.

    Four of us had a very lovely late lunch. The only reason I did not give the food 5 stars was the fish & Chips had a bit too much coating on it.The waitress was excellent.

    Overall a great experience. Our waiter Carol sp? Was attentive and made sure everyone's order was perfect. Craft cocktails perfectly blended. The pop-overs were a nice surprise, delicious. Entrees on point. My only suggestion was the ambiance, overall esthetically beautiful, it was a bit loud and too bright, maybe a dimmer?

    The dry aged steaks were phenomenal! The flavor was perfection. The individual sides were very overpriced for the size they were 10 dollars each and it was just enough for one person. 10 bucks for a little mashed potato is a stretch in my opinion. The carrot cake was delicious and they make a mean espresso martini! The restaurant itself is gorgeous with a few stone fireplaces throughout and it’s very cozy.

    Carianne is the best! We love going back for the food and the wine, but mostly because she’s so sweet and professional. She has the perfect personality and the Bistro wouldn’t be the same without her.
