" The Left Bank Bistro is a true gem! From the moment I walked in, the charming decor and welcoming environment captured my heart. I ordered the coq au vin, and let me tell you, it was bursting with flavor! The tender chicken paired beautifully with the rich sauce. The dessert, a passionfruit mousse, was the perfect light touch after such a hearty meal. Staff were attentive and polite, which made my experience even better. Highly recommend visiting if you're in St. Pete! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to The Left Bank Bistro, and I was impressed! The decor is chic, and the atmosphere is soothing. I had the shrimp and grits, and the flavors were fantastic, though the shrimp portion could have been more generous. Service was friendly, but we had to wait quite a while for our food. Overall, I would recommend it for a nice dining experience, although be prepared for a leisurely meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Left Bank Bistro exceeded my expectations! I had their special, which was a fish dish that was perfectly cooked and accompanied by a delightful lemon herb sauce. The flavors were truly captivating. The ambiance was cozy and elegant, perfect for a date night. I would say the only downside was the dessert selection; I wish they had more options. Nonetheless, it was really a lovely experience, and I will definitely be returning soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried The Left Bank Bistro with my friends on a Saturday night. The atmosphere was vibrant and cheerful. We started with the baked brie, which was delightful, and for main courses, the duck confit and bouillabaisse were both excellent choices. My only concern was the portion sizes; I felt the bouillabaisse could use more seafood for the price. Nonetheless, it was a rewarding dining experience because of the excellent flavors. I would visit again for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Left Bank Bistro is undoubtedly one of the best spots in St. Pete. I visited for brunch last weekend, and the experience was fantastic. The Croque Madame was perfectly executed, with just the right balance of flavors. I also tried their mimosas, which were refreshing and served in generous portions. The outdoor seating area was beautifully decorated, making for a pleasant dining environment. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for excellent French cuisine and a lovely atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Left Bank Bistro has a wonderful charm. My partner and I visited for an impromptu dinner and were pleasantly surprised! The decor is stylish, and the service was inviting. The ratatouille was divine – bursting with fresh flavors. However, the desserts were the low point for me; I found the tart overly sweet. Even so, with the warm atmosphere and friendly service, I anticipate our next visit with excitement! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at The Left Bank Bistro was pure joy! We celebrated our anniversary, and the service was fantastic from start to finish. My husband ordered the bouillabaisse, and I had the beef bourguignon. Both dishes were flavorful and beautifully presented. The restaurant itself had an elegant charm, making it a lovely place for a special occasion. I can't recommend this spot enough and look forward to our next visit. " (*Curated Review*)
