What People Are Saying About Bistro Provence

The Scene – Owned by Jean Philippe Guy, Provence is warm and cozy, with eyelet covered lamps and blue and yellow dressed tables that keep you cheerful even if you rub elbows with neighbors on both sides. – – The Food – It excels with saucy chicken, beef stews and grilled items. They tend to be dry, but all is forgiven after adding surely the most authentic bearnaise in Houston. Purists may be quick to order the confit de lapin, a simmered red rabbit confit with candied onions and prunes. But the fearful will be comforted with four different pizzas and several soups.…

Great Little Family-Owned French Restaurant

by AlainHarvey

Bistro Provence is a great little family-owned French restaurant. The chef and his wife are French and so are some of the waitstaff. The menu is traditional home cooking with a flair of the cuisine from the south of France. If you've been to France...you'll love it and you won't go broke!

I love this little gem of a restaurant in the middle of a strip mall. The restaurant is small but quaint and inviting. The food is great for the price. It seems like the owners appreciate diners who appreciate good french food. It's definitely worth the trip.

Bistro Provence is as close as you can get to the experience of eating at a French restaurant without leaving town. There are ten or so tables on the sidewalk in front of the restaurant. On a warm night, it's a joy to sit outside and eat a light meal, as we did on our next visit.

Bistro Provence isn't perfect, but the food is very, very good. On a dark evening with a bottle of French red wine and the aroma of garlic wafting through the air, I can close my eyes and imagine I'm back in rural France seated in a cozy auberge dining with friends and family.

Bon appétit!

Wonderful Valentine's Day

by Zebmur

Went there on Valentine's Day and had a luxurious meal that was complemented by fantastic service. The lamb and lobster bisque were perfection. We live out of town but when we visit again we will be back!

  • Pros: Service and superb food combined
  • Cons: What are the drawbacks?
