What an ideal day for an exceptional sandwich. Meet The Frenchman — we slow-braise boneless beef short rib for hours until it’s fork‑tender and melt‑in‑your‑mouth, pile it onto our toasted house loaf, and finish it with creamy, nutty Gruyère, sweet roasted red peppers, and a glossy, deeply savory demi‑glace for extra richness. A bright whole‑grain mustard blend adds the perfect tang, and everything’s nestled in our signature loaf with a crisp crust. No stove required — stop by tonight to enjoy one here, or grab it to go!

Get that "warm cozy" feeling with an order Bistro’s famous beef stroganoff — a cozy, soul-soothing classic, even on a warm day. We make it with our signature short rib, slow-braised until fork-tender to build rich, beefy depth and an irresistibly melt-in-your-mouth texture. It’s served with grilled, house-made focaccia, toasted to a golden char for a crunchy bite and fragrant herb finish. Treat yourself tonight — it’s lovely alongside a glass of red. Grab one while you can!
