Classic French menu, c'est manifique! Feels like you stepped onto a side street in Provence and found a treasure of a bistro.

Really delicious. It was a little worried after reading some of the reviews but so happy we decided to come. The owner and Chef works right in the kitchen by the tables. Everything is made with such care. We had a server who was maybe a year there? So welcoming! The lamb was so flavorful. The apple desert wasn't too sweet, so yum. We could've had the scallop asparagus risotto appetizer as an entrée.

The best food in Bethesda hands down. It's so delicate and unique and good; every ingredient is high-quality. I've been coming here for years and I love it here. I usually go on my birthday. The asparagus soup is to die for with the light salty Parmesan foam, and the escargot with sweet potato. Mushrooms is such an awesome preparation. You literally can't go wrong, whatever you order will be delicious. Plus, the warm ambience and the beautiful outdoor patio are awesome in the summer, especially with all the flowers.

Best French restaurant in DC area! We have come for special occasions, anniversaries and birthdays. The chef prepares everything and viewing the kitchen is an added pleasure. We have ordered various dishes over time and they have all been excellent. The Sancerre is the best, salads are perfect and main dishes like veal chop and duck are exquisite. Desserts are a delight. Service is attentive and personal. The rooms and outdoor dining are charming. We are so lucky to have Bistro Provence in this area! Thank you!
