My favorite Roast Beef French Dip was full of gristle (not fat) and uneatable. Had to return it and ordered a salad. Whoever made the sandwich should have seen the poor quality of beef and not served it.

Great food and service. We thought it was strange that with only 2 other tables taken at the time, and the fact that we had a reservation, we were taken to a table in the very back near the entrance of the kitchen. Upon request, we were moved to a better table. For two salads (one with protein and one without) and two iced teas, $52 is an exorbitant cost. Will reconsider dining here again.

Had lunch with a friend outside on the patio to enjoy a beautiful day. Service was prompt and friendly. My friend has many dietary restrictions and the kitchen was able to accommodate her which we appreciated. I had the taco appetizer and the biscuit appetizer. The biscuit was a tad spicy and super tasty. Overall, can't wait to go back.

Four of us had a great lunch at Bazille this week. Two of us had the Southwest style salad--one with chicken, the other shrimp-- and the other two had the crab, mango, and avocado salad. Everyone was very happy with their choice, the salads were presented beautifully, and all ingredients were very fresh. The space is clean and bright, but perhaps could be just a touch cozier. Overall, a great dining option!

This is my first time here, and despite getting bad service, I was pleasantly surprised, overall. it took a while for our waiter to greet us, but when he did, he was friendly and brought our drinks out right away. It was just my mom and I and we each placed an order for a cup of soup and an entrée. We were waiting forever and tables around us, who were seated after us, were getting their food. We finally flagged down another server and asked if we could get our soup. As soon as she brought out the soup our entrées came out, by someone other than our server. My tacos looked good but they were cold. When our server finally came to check on us we told him that we had to ask for our soup and my tacos were cold. He didn’t apologize but instead just made excuses. He also never refilled my coffee. $4 for one cup of luke warm coffee. The restaurant wasn’t too busy maybe about half full. I will definitely be going again as I did enjoy the ambience, the menu selections, and the food that we did get was very good.
