3 friends who haven’t seen each other for a long time chose Bistro 821 for our gathering place. We could not have had a better time. The owner made sure we had a comfortable table. His name is Scott. Bill helped us. Danielle helped us. Everyone was so friendly and our food was outstanding..

The service was outstanding. For the most part, the food was excellent. My filet was not as buttery as I would have expected. But we started with a shared calamari was great. My husband raved about his salmon dinner. Our wait staff, Danielle, was over the top. We had a wonderful evening!

Trying to make a decision in Naples, Florida for a birthday dinner can be somewhat daunting. You wanna make sure you get great ambience, along with outstanding food and drinks. So many restaurants to choose from, how do you choose?? From the minute we walked in, we were greeted with a smile from the Hostess, brought to an amazing table in the front of the restaurant by the window and birthday confetti was sprinkled on the table for a festive touch. Our server, Danielle was flawless from start to finish. She was so friendly (Go Boston!) and knowledgeable about the dishes at the restaurant, the cocktails and wine. We were then greeted by the owner Scott who added to my birthday celebration with his warm smile and ease of conversation! We felt a great vibe in this restaurant that we haven’t felt on fifth Avenue. The entrees were chose were Miso Chilean Seabass, Seafood Risotto, and Jumbo Day Boat Scallops. These entrees were truly outstanding in both presentation and flavor. Capping off the celebration, Danielle brought us 2 birthday desserts ( Brûlée key Lime Pie and the Flourless Chocolate Cake) that topped off the night with decadent flavors. I am unsure how we have never dined here before but this is the beginning of a culinary love affair!! Thank you to Bistro 821 for making this a night to remember!
