    Caramelized Pear & Bleu Cheese Salad
    Michael H.

    Absolutely fantastic meal. Sorry, I ate the sandwich before I could rake a photo. I ordered the ham & brie sandwich and a small caramelized Pear & Bleu cheese salad, and everything was delicious. I'm not great at trying new things, especially complex or creative sandwiches, but this was amazing. Highly recommend! We came in the evening on a Tuesday, they weren't busy, so it was very chill. I really like the decor. Our server, Cooper, was great, patiently explaining the menu. Never been here before, but definitely planning on coming back!

    I have visited Joseph Beth dozens of times, and even ordered coffee from Bronte Bistro's little stand in the bookstore, but I'd never actually dined at this restaurant before, so I thought I'd give it a try. Let me just say that this was not what I was expecting ... and that's not necessarily a good or a bad thing. I was in the area running errands for work, and thought this would be a good place for a quick working lunch. I was wayyyyy off base. Bronte Bistro was packed for lunch on a Thursday around noon, and even a table for one would have taken 20 minutes. Thankfully, there was a seat open at the bar, so I squeezed my way into the corner and popped open my laptop. Like I mentioned, this place was busy!! There was a pretty big range in clientele - everyone from moms and their kids, to men in suits, to little old ladies meeting up with their friends for lunch. The bartender was friendly and fast - she had my food out to me just about five minutes after I ordered. I also appreciated that she didn't check in as often as you might with a regular table ... she noticed I had my laptop out, and respected that I was trying to make every minute count. It was tough to concentrate, but I eventually got into a rhythm and was able to knock a few things out. The prices were not bad, and the food was good. I had the "Pick Two" combo with the Pear & Bleu Cheese salad, and the half Chicken Salad sandwich. The salad was tangy and sweet, and the chicken salad was a good mix of creamy with some crunchy elements. I will say, next time I would probably just order the full sandwich, since that's served on a croissant. The half sandwiches are all served on wheat toast, which is totally fine, but not the same as a croissant. I overheard that they serve breakfast until 1 p.m., which is incredibly generous, and I'd love to come back and try that, but maybe on a weekend when I'm not trying to get some work done.

    This place is always crowded at lunchtime with a very chatty vibe. If you come a little later, you can hang out with a latte and read (it's attached to a great bookstore). The menu has some good vegetarian options, particularly the quiche de jour, but I tried the egg and cheese croissant today which turned out slightly bland but with great hashbrowns. Service was attentive but the tables are covered with white paper now (a personal pet peeve). Still, a solid option in a convenient location.

    Perfect while she's shopping. Have a drink at the bar. Yes a bar in a bookstore. Long overdue. Who cares what they spend as long as the Manhattan (with a holiday twist) goes down east. About 10 spots at the bar along with all the tables around the bistro equals unraveled shopping experience. Only missing draft taps, but maybe I missed that.

    Daily quiche special, fruit, potatoes and goetta.

    Way back when, I'd often come to Bronte Bistro for lunch with work friends. We were back in town after moving to California seven years ago. My good friend suggested meeting here for brunch. I was all for it. Service was good. Our waters were filled and filled again. The special quiche was delicious. The fruit was fresh. I ordered goetta because we can't get it in California. $4 for two small, overdone (I like goetta crispy, but this was beyond crispy) patties was a disappointment. I didn't eat the potatoes; just not my thing. Overall, Bronte Bistro was A-OK.

    Vanilla Latte, breakfast burrito, French toast, and eggs Benedict.

    First-class experience. Good Riesling and wheat beer, inspired entrees, and creme brulees to die for. Server Jake was especially helpful.

    The food was mediocre at best and the servers are among the rudest that I have ever encountered! Go to First Watch instead.

    Food was average and expensive for the product delivered. Service was very slow. Too many good food options around here to settle for this.

    Ripple Wine Bar O'Bryonville - Charcuterie board

    My best friend made reservations for my birthday. We've been wanting to try this place for a while…read moreand so glad we finally got to try it. You walk in and feel welcomed. It's spacious and the lighting is romantic. I love the decor. Contemporary and simple. Their menu is tapas style. Their drink menu has everything. Especially wine. They all pair well with the meals. We ordered: Drinks: Renato Ratti Italy Barbera La rioja Alta Tempranillo La Font de L'Olivier France Carignan Red Schnooner Malbec Dinner: Shroom pasta Spanish flatbread Charcuterie-Manchego cheese Chefs rotating seasonal cheese (goat) Prosciutto with honeycomb and salty olives. We ordered the charcuterie board first. Oh wow! The cheese with the honey comb tasted so good. Especially with the prosciutto. Next we got our dinner. Both the flatbread and pasta were great! I was not expecting my pasta to have some tomatoes. It wasn't bad but I thought it didn't need it. All my wines paired well with the meals. The night did not end there. Our server was so kind and attentive, she served me a birthday wine and dessert! Wow! So grateful and it was so good! What an awesome experience. My best friend and I had a great time and enjoyed our meals! I can't wait to come back. I definitely want my Mr. to try it. I know he will love it!

    went to ripple for the first time last night and had a great experience- up until we had to deal…read morewith sarah. one of my girlfriends has a nut allergy which we specified to our server (not sarah) while ordering but when our food was brought out (by sarah) we realized there was pistachio on one of the items. the rest of us don't have a nut allergy and said we could eat it but sarah made a small fuss about how she couldn't leave it bc then she would have to charge us for two dishes, never mind that it was due to their error. whatever, no big deal. halfway through our visit, our server came to say that his shift was ending but that we'd be taken good care of by sarah. that's when we learned that sarah is the girl who brought out our food and thought eh, maybe the last interaction was a one-off and everything would be fine. sarah then proceeds to try and clear our charcuterie board even though we still had a decent amount of food left and were still picking at it. comes back AGAIN (mind you we all have drinks that are still half full) ten minutes later, takes the board and asks how we'd like to split the check. given that we'd had such a pleasant experience with every other employee we'd interacted with up until then, it was incredibly disappointing to have our visit end on a sour note by sarah trying to push us out the door (i'm not even kidding, i think she was our server for maybe a grand total of 20 minutes) when these are girlfriends i hadn't seen in months. it wasn't even close to closing time, there were still multiple other patrons present, and we weren't being loud or disruptive, so im really not sure why sarah was so anxious to send us on our merry way. all this to say, i highly recommend ripple- just try to avoid getting sat in sarah's section if at all possible.
