Knox Bistro

The worse food Ive ever tasted. Went on Easter and the filet tasted like it was boiled. The boulliabasse tasted the same on every bite which wasnt even good anyways. The cost of 85$/person with only two entrees youd think the food would be outstanding. Plus no candy for Easter? Or dessert options? It was just awful. Overly expensive. The water was good!

Great little place for a Sunday brunch. The wait list was about 45 min, but due to the location, it didn't matter. We walked and shopped. Split a BLT and waffle with a friend. Both were delicious!

I recently dined at Knox Bistro and had a mixed experience. The service was excellent, attentive and friendly, making us feel very welcome. The atmosphere of the bistro was quite pleasant, with a cozy and inviting vibe. We started off with the mussels special as an appetizer, which was absolutely delicious and highly recommended. However, the main courses were a bit of a letdown. I ordered a burger medium, but it arrived closer to rare with a warm red center that wasn't to my liking. My wife's steak, accompanied by freetias, was unfortunately cold, detracting from what could have been a great dish. Additionally, our friend's quiche wasn't up to the usual standard and had an almost gelatin-like consistency that was quite different from previous visits. In all, while the appetizer and service were fantastic, the main dishes left us a bit disappointed. Hoping for a more consistent experience next time.

Knox bistro is a nice friendly restaurant, with quite frankly, unacceptable food at very high prices. Not one dish at our table was excellent and more than half were poor. I think my choice was the worst of them all. I had a hamburger au poivre which was a burger with caramelized onions and a peppercorn sauce poured on the burger, and then the top bun placed on top. Aside from it being very much one note, all you could taste was the sauce, none of the meat or onion, the thing was a soggy mess before I could get a quarter of the way through. It was a pretty gross blend of soggy bun and soggy half cooked meat with a peppercorn sauce all over. Maybe I finished a third of the burger. It should have been removed from the bill at a restaurant of this purported quality, although I did not ask for it to be removed. So it is what it is. The waiter did notice I did not enjoy it and asked if I wanted something more. I declined. My wife had the steak tartar which did not have much flavor. The meat was not seasoned particularly if at all and was just bland. Our dessert was very unspectacular. It was some sort of a cream puff with hazelnut cream. But it was really 2 slices of some pastry and a cream spread between. It was not bad, not particularly good either and just unimpressive. I am not going to comment on the other guest's food because I didn't taste it, but they won't be doing back either. So disappointing.
