About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Charming
Gonzales Bistro is an upscale restaurant that makes its home near the very heart of Independence square. We are the only restaurant by the square with prime & waygu aged steaks, fresh seafood, New England oysters. The bistro offers a Wine Spectator Magazine award winning wine list, craft cocktails including house made Tiki drinks. Our reputation is based on repeat diner loyalty not marketing.

Gonzales Bistro changes menus often in order to take advantage of local, seasonal products. Chef Parind's food has big flavors & is seasoned assertively, yet is nuanced, complex, and most importantly, balanced.

Come join us and experience big city dining without all the hassles. Gonzales Bistro is a intimate space with an open kitchen, wood ceilings, framed by great black & white pictures from a bygone era while the charming independence square offers free parking, wide open spaces & vistas of historic buildings. Nearby parks, art galleries and shopping define the sophistication of Gonzales.

    We've dined here several times. However today I tried something new (to me). OMG. The chicken picatta served with fresh from the grill veggies over the Chef's to die for mashed potatoes! Now I still love the steak with the scallops but I had steak last night. Truthfully I ate everything on my plate. Nothing to go. Plus several bites of the creme brulle. The staff remembered our names and my wine choices. Truthfully Lockhart folks Gonzales is not that far away. Looking forward to next time!

    Mother’s Day with my wife was excellent. The place was full, so the kitchen was a bit slow. We started with chips and queso (delicious) and some adult beverages. We each had the special - stir fried shellfish and andouille sausage over Chinese noodles. Service was excellent and we were able to meet and converse with nice people at the next table.

    Chef Parind is a marvel! Everything was perfect even on crowded Easter lunch. Staff are well trained and helpful. Hostess knew our name even though we've only dined there a couple of times. My filet, hart vericoates & scalloped potatoes were wonderful. My husband substituted the mashed potatoes for fries. The best fries ever. Need to return soon!

    The Bistro is a hidden gem with great service and EXCELLENT food. The Chef has a nice selection for all. The Bistro could easily fit in the Austin, Houston or Dallas restaurant scene. The cost is worth the trip as the service and food are great.

    Always good food and decent service. The chef always has creative dishes, not your ordinary finds in a small town. Their wine list is pricey and not great. The only Pinot Noir they offer by the glass is Angeline Reserve, and it sells for $15ish a BOTTLE they charge $16 a GLASS. That's extreme in my opinion. I expect to pay a premium in a nice restaurant but not 4x the price! For the price point of the food I would expect better service and a better wine list.
