I pride myself on knowing the new restaurants and which ones are the best across several categories. - Food, since this is a foodie group, so the food has to be complex and interesting and tasty and in terms of general palate pleasing and leaving us with the feeling that we will be back. - Service level. We all know that the service experience, when top notch, enhances the experience. - the uniqueness of the concept - is this a place, where visiting guests would love? So I have to admit that I am embarrassed that last night was my first time to go to BISTRO 424 with my partner in crime, fellow foodie, and lovely amazing wife Janie Skidmore Panasis who owns Janie's Boutique! We kept looking at each other and asking "how have we missed this place?" First off, the menu is colossal, and varied, but in our opinion, this is a bistro that has influences from Italy, and Germany or Poland maybe. The hostess was great and found us a table inside. Our server was Sydney and she was awesome. I ordered the lasagna ($20) and Janie ordered the eggplant Parmesan sandwich ($16) and both came with a side salad and we ordered with their popular lemon vinaigrette. The salads were huge, and fresh and the dressing tasted homemade and was perfect. Clean and crisp. Janie loved her sandwich and it was so much that she took half home. The lasagna...OMG, I asked the server to find out if they cooked it in the pizza oven, as it was presented as if it came out of a very hot cooking appliance. It turns out it did go in with the pizzas, and so the cheese on top was very lightly charred and sooo good. The combination of sausage and beef in the lasagna was complex and seasoned perfectly. The pasta and the cheese combined with the meat and Parmesan really set this dish off. Served steaming hot. This was the best lasagna that I have ever had. We will definitely be back. There were a number of items we want to try. Great job Bistro 424!! read more

YUM! Tanner, our waiter, answered all of our questions. He made great recommendations and everything was delicious. The house salad with a lemon vinaigrette was excellent - crisp and fresh. I had the Stromboli - barely put a dent in it - great crust using their pizza dough, and delicious sauce to dip. The leftovers will be two more lunches! My friend had the sorrento sandwich with fries which was very good. It's a lovely place - a bit hard to find without specific instructions- but we know how to get there now!!! read more

Best pizza since I moved here 3 years ago from NY. Get Calabrian peppers on it! Chicken scarpelli great! Nice outside patio. Be back for sure! read more

Cobb salad was just ok. Service was good. Pizza was very salty. Blu Rueben was very good. Whipped feta was awesome! Indoor and outdoor seating. Dog friendly on the patio. read more

We came in for dinner. We were referred here by some friends and told to ask for Alyssa for a server. She did not disappoint! She was very attentive, answered all our questions about the menu, and recommended delicious choices for our dinners and wine. We will be back again and will be making sure to ask for a Alyssa as our server again! She made the whole experience wonderful! read more

After hearing great things about Bistro 424, we tried it for the first time, and our party of four ranged from happy to extremely dissatisfied. It was cold by Florida standards, so we sat inside at a high-top table, where the cheap industrial metal stools need to be replaced with something more comfortable. We ordered dinner with very mixed results: Cobb salad: The fried shallots were beautiful, nice balance of ingredients. (Happiness) Crab stuffed mahi: Another hit. Pistachio crusted salmon. Meh- wouldn't order again. Chicken parmesan. An absolute disaster. The chicken was so severely overcooked to be inedible. The bread crumb crust was blackened to the point of being a solid, impenetrable shield. Had to search out the server to get her attention, and sent the meal back. She asked if I wanted something else, but I asked for another chicken parm cooked properly. It took a while, and I got another try at the chicken - still overcooked, still blackened, but this attempt was somewhat edible. I am not a fussy diner. I rarely send food back to the kitchen. On the rare occasion I have a problem and send something back, someone from the management team wanders by and inquires about the dining experience. That didn't happen at Bistro 424, leaving this review space as the only way to inform management of the significant problems in the kitchen. Final rating: two stars. Some of the food is excellent, but there are severe quality control issues when inedible food is allowed to leave the kitchen. Your experience will vary. read more

Bistro 424 is quickly becoming one of our favorite casual dining spots near home. I can honestly say I've never had a bad meal or drink here--and that says a lot considering we're currently here for the second time in three days. The servers are always attentive and friendly, and even when the restaurant is busy, the kitchen is clearly well run. Food comes out fresh and in a timely manner every single visit. Most recently, I tried the scampi special and WOW--soooo good. The sauce was absolutely to die for, so much so that I came back and asked if they could make it into a full meal (zero regrets). Other menu favorites for me are the poke appetizer, the meatballs, and the pizzas, which are truly chef's kiss every time. If you're looking for a consistently great meal, solid drinks, and a relaxed but quality dining experience in New Smyrna, Bistro 424 is a must. We'll definitely keep coming back. read more

I visited Bistro 424 for the first time on Tuesday with a few girlfriends, and we had such a nice experience! The atmosphere was lively and a little loud, but still really enjoyable. We ordered a couple of appetizers to share, and my absolute favorite was the she-crab--it was delicious! Good customer services. The food overall was amazing, and we really enjoyed our time there. Such a nice spot for a girls' night out. I'll definitely be back! read more

Dined in at Bistro once before, and it was great. So we thought we'd give the pizza kitchen a try for takeout and it did not disappoint. This mildly spicy Italian meat lovers pizza (The Soppressata Pizza) should be a mainstay on the menu. Lucky enough to catch it on the Weekend Specials Menu. We were helped right when we walked in and two other employees at the take out counter made sure we were taken care of even on a busy Friday night. Thanks! read more

Great food and service. Its great to sit outside and enjoy the view, they also deliver

We were there two weeks ago and the change was delightful. At 5:30 we had our choice of seats and within an hour the place was packed. Lasagna was enough to feed an army, leftovers were delicious. The young man serving was outstanding, always checking to see if we were ok. We will definitely return. read more

I can't say enough good things about this business. We have been coming here for years and it remains consistently awesome. Service is exemplary. Food is spectacular. I am writing this review as I enjoy my spicy rigatoni leftovers. Highly recommend. read more

I am a tough critic and make my own pizza, because everywhere has terrible pizza. People say go here and there but they all suck. But not this place, it's good in my book and just as good as mine :) I thoroughly enjoyed the Cloud 9 IPA, my only gripe is it need to be in 20/22oz glasses it's that good! Or even better by the pitcher! Great beer and pizza, best in town hands down! Other Italian options also look amazing. read more

have loved this place for years!! amazing food, my favorite is the bruschetta, no longer on the menu but still orderable! always has great service even when it's packed or a weekend night. love this cozy intimate restaurant perfect for having dinner with loved ones or meeting up with friends. great hidden gem! read more

My favorite Port Orange restaurant. Service and food are impeccable. Always have garlic knots and marinara. Doesn't get any better. Companions had meatballs; fantastic I had my usual bolognese: as good as it gets. Beer and wine section to drawer. Let's not forget house salad which is superlative. Unbelievable portions and very reasonable prices. Wow:fabulous place to eat . read more

I have been eating at the Bistro since I've moved to the area four years ago. I fell in love with the eggplant parmigiana. The eggplant was cooked perfectly! The portion was perfectly distributed between the eggplant and the pasta. I would have always rated the restaurant with 5 stars. Unfortunately, the last two years, I have been so disappointed that my favorite dish has gone downhill! The last two times I ordered it, the eggplant was sliced as thin as a piece of foil! I was fretting that it would dissipate before it reached my mouth. I guess I was previously spoiled with at least 2-3 medium to large half inch slices. Instead I received 3 small foil thin slices over what has been replaced with an extra mound of pasta. I have purchased large trays of the chicken and eggplant parmigiana for events and family gatherings, which was wonderful but very pricey. I never minded the price as long as it was what I termed 'the best'. After the last two experiences, unfortunately I have to consider a different venue. I'm not surprised at the change in portions, prices and quality as many restaurants are cutting costs with similar changes. Nonetheless, I'm sad the Bistro followed suit. read more

Yummy food -- great place and convenient to home in Venetian Bay. Fast delivery, great customer service.

Tucked in Venetian bay, bistro 424 is kind of hard to find but well worth it for the trip Full bar so started off with my ketel 1 dirty martini and candyce had her chardonnay. Done pretty good. When the rest of the group showed up appetizer was bruschetta which was really good. Bread had the crusty style crust but center was soft and chewy. Complimentary rolls were brought out and they were fantastic Main course for me was mahi stuffed with crabcakes with side veggies. Kitchen had mine with green beans but the waiter remembered I wanted spring veggies and brought those out. Waiter did a great job with everyone. The mahi filet was thick and done great. Candyce had the chicken piccata and she really enjoyed it. All around good service, good food and reasonable prices. Great place just out of the way. One of those hidden gems read more

The service was great same with the atmosphere. It's just a regular restaurant. The reason I'm giving it two stars is because I got food poisoning from the pizza I had there. I was in a big group of friends and I was the only one who ate the pizza and I got severely sick. The rest of the food was good just not the pizza. read more

The food-especially the sandwiches- are to die for! Absolutely amazing and always so fresh, definitely a must try despite it being so tucked away and hidden. Service was great and Conner (our waiter) was awesome. Ambiance is fine, nice enough inside but nothing too fancy, perfect for shirts and shorts kinda vibe. Hidden little gem. read more

Now that we live in southern Georgia, I haven't kept up with reviews like I should. However, yesterday 2/24 we drove to New Smyrna Beach to visit my sister for her birthday. We had an early dinner and my sister picked this place because she had truffle fries here sometime before and really liked them. So my sister, wife, mother and I sat outside overlooking a nice large man made pond in a complex known as Venetian Bay. I didn't have high expectations, I was just glad to be with family on a beautiful afternoon outdoors in February. The hostess, Paris, helped get us the desired table and was also our server. After being seated I checked some Yelp reviews and they seemed promising. So we ordered the truffle fries which were excellent and the ahi nachos, which caught my eye, for appetizers. This was probably the 2nd best dish ordered by us yesterday. It was like a diced poke style ahi with avocado and tomato on these crispy yet yielding pita points. Absolutely delicious. My mom loves cheesesteaks which aren't always done right. They got it right. It's was quite large and cooked to perfection. The cheese was nice and gooey while the steak was shaved and very tender. It was too much for her as she is 92 so I ate half. I would order that any day of the week. We both saw this shrimp and crab pizza on the menu and my mom suggested I get that and share. She had already planned on sharing her cheesesteak with me. It y far the star of the show. My sister ordered the Mahi sandwich without the cheese. My wife got the bistro burger which was what I was going to get before mom changed my mind. My wife loved her burger, she said was cooked to perfection and she subbed a tossed side salad with there signature lemon vinaigrette dressing. My sister's sandwich was also a hit which she took most of it home to her husband because she was devouring my pizza. Only my wife wasn't interested as she's not a pizza fan. (I know, crazy right?) the smell of the pizza alone was enough to drive you mad with desire. I cannot emphasize enough how good this pizza was. The 12 inch was plenty also. We all took home food as the portions are great. We ate a lot. Mom did a great job but had help from my sister devouring her fries. I told my sister who in turn told the waitress that all other food would taste like dog poop after this meal. Who will top this or even equal it? I'm so glad we picked this place and ordered what we did. One of the best dining experiences of my life. People in the parking lot were telling us to try other dishes and how good they are. I hope the food is as good when we visit again. It's 2 hours away from where we live but it's another excuse to see my sister. read more

Came here for the first time about 3 weeks ago. It was a busy Friday night but we were able to get a seat for two really quickly. I ordered the Pizza Suprema without mushrooms and it was fantastic. Best pizza I've found out here so far. Can't wait to order it again!! Would have taken a photo but by the time I thought of it half the pizza was gone. read more

We went mountain biking at nearby Spruce Creek, aka Doris Leeper Spruce Creek Preserve close to New Smyrna Beach (also recommended if you like Mountain Biking, or Hiking. Afterwards we were starving and found Bistro 424 on our way back to Orlando. What a great find. The menu is quite extensive. Full bar if you want some cocktails. I had the ahi tuna nachos (yummy) and she had an ahi tuna wrap. Nice outdoor seating too. Looking forward to it again read more

Used to be a solid place to go. Breakfast, lunch, dinner or drinks it was consistently a great time. Always enjoyed the food and the view. But the last two times we have gone there, each time was for brunch, they have gotten the orders wrong. This was the last time. Three strikes and your out in my book. I just can't justify the issues. The food is great, the view is fantastic but the service has been hit or miss. If I am entertaining, I would have second thoughts. If I am willing to let things slide and just enjoy the view while I wait - well then I am in the right spot. Had to get my meal boxed up to go again as it took them almost 15 minutes to correct the problem, which isn't bad unless you consider the server never came back to check on our meals and after about ten minutes I got up and brought it to their attention. I should have asked them to just remove it from the bill as it wasn't going to keep in the car while we finished our errands (we ended up tossing them in the trash on the way to the car). Then again, it should have been offered by the management. It is a shame as the flavors are great, the view is fantastic but it will be a long time before we try again. There are many operations that are on top of their game and more deserving our of money. read more

We had 2 dinners at the bistro while visiting a friend in Venetian Bay. Both experiences, separately, were 5 stars. The food was amazing and the patio is laid back, easy, comfortable AND golf cart accessible. Bruschetta: ricotta base stole the show. Great app! Caesar, add shrimp: delicious well seasoned shrimp, served warm on crisp romaine. Could have been a meal with the bruschetta. Loved the dressing Baked Feta: this was a special. Crispy phyllo wrapped around feta slices, balsamic drizzle and micro greens. Unbelievable. Best dish I had in FL. Mushroom Ravioli - decadent, fairly heavy. Prosciutto was the perfect compliment Excellent service, live music on Saturday, read more

This place is so close to us, we could walk to it. It is our go-to place for great pizza and overall provides excellent food with a view of one of the lake-like ponds at Venetian Bay, with both outside and inside service. 12" and 16" pizzas are done perfectly with chewy thin crusts and a good selection of meat or cheese or even 1/2+1/2 options. You can order online and pick up your order (about 30-35 minutes after ordering) through a dedicated pick-up door. We've had their burgers, shrimp scampi, salads, and many other items and have almost never been disappointed in the portions, quality, or speed of service. Service has always been friendly and they respect their staff. read more

Great food! We just moved into the area and give this place a shot. Casual attire which I love since I live in Florida. Don't remember the servers name but his suggestions were great. He was friendly and he seems to be pretty cool. I did order a sangria but I had better ones. Had the Philly cheesesteak which I'm not a big fan of but being born and raise in Philly and gave it a shoot and it was great! I loved the bread so fresh!! I will differently be back to try something new! read more

This restaurant is located in the lovely Venetian Bay neighborhood right on a beautiful "lake" that looks like Portofino Bay! Their food is American and Italian flare. Great menu and drink options. I had the Bianca Florentine Pizza and added Italian sausage and it was SO delicious. If you're looking for a refreshing drink to go with dinner their Mule was really good. The only thing I would say is the customer service is pretty slow and I highly recommend making reservations that helps they can get busy at times, which is great for them! Good spot to checkout especially with the views. read more

What a cute little restaurant with absolutely delicious food and a beautiful view. My husband and I loved how lowkey and relaxing our dinner was. The food was to die for, from our chorizo dip appetizer (special, not regular to the menu) to our fresh seafood dishes, our experience was a 10/10. The service was top notch as well, good customer service and food came quick and hot! We will now add this to our frequent list of places to dine. Prices are reasonable as well for quality and portion. Check them out, you won't leave disappointed! read more
