We are planning to eat there the evening of July 4, but haven't seen any feedback since it reopened after the refurb.
yes, we were there the first part of April. In the past we LOVED the Bistro, but i have to say Monsieur Paul was a disappointment. First of all paper place mats don't do it for me in a fine dining restaurant. There were 3 of us and the bill was abt $300. The food just didn't justify this. The Lobster Bisque was loaded with lobster but tasted rubbery and 'old'. The Cornish Hen was quite good but small and i don't even remember what I had, it wasn't memorable at all. It was an occasion to celebrate my birthday and i can think of half dozen other Disney restaurants that were better. Sorry.
I went last month and was looking forward to dining there, but overall I was disappointed. The atmosphere was more like a resort sig restaurant. Most guests were dressed up and there were very few people in park touring clothes.
Unfortunately, the signature atmosphere didn't carry into the service. Our server was distant and all business and did nothing to enhance our enjoyment of dinner. I'm more used to the sig servers who are friendly, take time to discuss menu items and take care of the small details that separate a sig from a non-sig at DW. I guess this is what disappointed me the most. The servers at the other sigs seem to enjoy working, but here it was just a job.
I won't completely cross it off my list, but it's dropped below quite a few other places.
Your server was "French" The French do not believe the server needs to be your friend, it is much more of a 'professional' relationship. So we aren't doing the "Hi I am Paul your server" gig in a real French restaurant.
