The Annapolitan

I've been here a few times and have come to love this restaurant. This particular night I started with the escargot which were small and I had a spot of trouble get getting a couple out. The server was very helpful and fetched me a wooden hors d'oeuvre pick to fish them out. Success! For the entree I had Canard á L’orange. The duck was good but.....can't quite put my finger on it. I think I need to give this dish another go. The food here is exceptional and the Old Fashions are to die for. This place is a must for any occasion, it's not loud, staff are wonderful and attentive and the vibe is warm. I would love to see a Beef Wellie on the menu. I'll keep you posted.

Bistro 55 provides an inviting French bistro atmosphere. During a last-minute search for a Valentine’s Day celebration, we were fortunate to encounter Ms. Paulette, the proprietor, who graciously welcomed us and guided us to our table. Initially apprehensive, our son ultimately savored the salad, duck, and cheesecake. The attentive staff and exquisite cuisine contributed to an unforgettable evening. We can’t wait to go back to try more dishes. Ms. Paulette, we will be back for more. Thank you to you and your staff for an amazing evening.

My husband and I went on a date night on opening night now that it’s reopened. I never ever leave reviews but I had to leave one about Bistro 55. Every single staff member was SO kind. We did have our baby with us, who started getting fussy, and they were so accommodating & helpful. Apart from the service, the food was absolutely perfect. We go to nicer restaurants pretty often, have been to pretty much every one in the CSRA, & this one takes the cake. Perfectly seasoned. Great options for everyone. We both had the Coq Au Vin & it was incredible. And don’t even get me started on the cheesecake!! I can’t recommend this place enough. Will for sure go regularly (without our baby next time).
