The Bistro
Gourmet — one star
This place is disappointing. Any resemblance to a real French bistro is purely coincidental. As for the food, it’s strictly mediocre. You can eat as well for far less at Sonny Kiriakis’s old favorite, the local Big Boy. Atmosphere is decidedly lacking when your hosts are a retired mob princess and a second-string DiMera whose mustache makes him look like Doug from the Liberty Mutual commercials. In fact the resemblance is strong enough that I expected the emu to make an appearance. The bottom line is that unless you enjoy watching the Salem cops stage a drug raid, give this eatery a miss.
