Best Bistros in Coronado

Place and ambience is great. Being French in a French restaurant I was expecting the duck to be like ‘at home’ but it wasn’t. It was well overcooked and became hard. Bit of a disappointment. My partner had the Boeuf Bourgignon which was delicious. Also apparently there are the old and the new menu going around with different wine prices. I was charged $75 a bottle of wine that was shown at $58 on my menu. Small thing but makes the overall experience a little annoying.

We had a reservation which helped. We were seated outside and it turned out to he ok with the heat lamps Oddly they were out of a some drinks - no sprite, could not make a Paloma. But waiter helped us out and comped a drink to ease the disappointment. Food was great. Beer great as always. Waiter excellent and friendly despite it being so busy.

We had an amazing Christmas Eve dinner. The pianist was spectacular. Thank you!

This is my go to for business lunches and special events. Food and service at or above expectations. The views are amazing. Selection and quality provides something for all. Custom food requests don’t seem to cause issues. Lunchtime parking is ample and has been free when we go. They may regulate parking sometimes so call if that is a concern. You can’t go wrong with the Cohn family of restaurants, with C-Level being one of their premier locations.

This place was just right. My wife and I often split a salad and a meal. They did not even blink an eye. The salad and meal were both split in the kitchen and no one would know by looking at the served dishes that the meal was meant for one. We’ll be back.
