Cafe Bistro - Peabody

The crab bisque is fantastic, and during my recent visit, I discovered a special on the menu: batter-fried cauliflower bites with General Gao dipping sauce. It was incredible! I hope they decide to offer it frequently. One unique aspect of this place is that you make your selections at the reception desk before being seated, and you pay for your meal there. However, you will still have a server, so don’t forget to tip!

I've been coming here with my family for years. The food is consistently exceptional, and the staff is friendly.

My wife and I visited for lunch one day, and she chose a sandwich while I went for a salad that was not only fresh but also packed with flavor. The French fries, seasoned with rosemary, came with a delightful kalamata aioli for dipping. The service was attentive, and the atmosphere was incredibly cozy. Even though we ordered before being seated, our food arrived quickly and was absolutely fantastic. I would definitely come back!

This was our first time dining inside the Nordstrom store, and it was a delightful and tidy experience. The service was outstanding. Upon entering, you place your order and then choose your own seat. The food was fantastic—I had the turkey cranberry sandwich, while my daughter chose the chicken Caesar salad. Although it's a bit on the expensive side, it's absolutely worth it. They even surprised us with two mint chocolates when we received our bill, which was a nice touch. We will definitely be back!
