We enjoyed our lunch here on the patio, over the water, and the food quality was very good. An excellent and CLOSE restaurant to I-​5 when you are driving through. What may appeal to some, but not to us, was the piped in country music, but we understood we are on a military base and they must cater to the local patrons. Would we like R and B better? Yes. But what we would have enjoyed more was no music and a break from the frantic driving out on I-​5. Did we overlook it? At times, but it was always there.
The service was outstanding — prompt, friendly and «perky», if you will.

View is awesome but the food is ok. Nothing really special about it in my opinion. You’re playing for the beautiful view of American lake ď

The food is just ok, nothing special. Since it is on America Lake, with nice scenery it is best to go on a sunny day and sit outside.

I went at this restaurant last month and to be honest it was ok. I guess with all the reviews I expected more from this place. Yes it had great views but the food was just ok. Service was good and restaurant was clean.

Went there today for the first time, based almost entirely upon previous reviews. I ended up with the Cuban sandwich. Sandwich came with option of fries, salad or something else that I cannot recall. I had the fries and they were excellent; very crispy and fresh. My sandwich came on a pretzel bun, which is always a plus. I removed a single star because the food took almost 30 minutes to come out. That’s way too long for a place like this, but the waittress was very apologetic and stated it was not common. I’ll definitely give it another go or two and update as appropriate.

Amazing food at an amazing price! Been here multiple times with my wife and have never had a bad experience! All the food is fresh and the menu is constantly changing! Beautiful views are available with their outdoor seating that is only feet away from American lake! Only downside I can think of about this restaurant is the odd hours of operation.

This is a nice restaurant on North Fort Lewis. It is right next to the water and is a quite pleasant place to grab dinner, especially if you’re a soldier and don’t want to go far. They have odd hours and the menu isn’t the largest but it did taste good. Their patio during summer months is great but their inside is warm and cozy during winter. They have a little bit of alcohol, wine and beer, but I can’t remember if they have cocktails.

Very good place to enjoy lunch. Pretty impressive for on post meal. The staff is very polite and helpful. The food is great value for the price. The atmosphere is nice. Recommend for lunch or office party.
Well worth the money

My favorite thing about the Bistro is the specials. In addition to their regular menu, they have a ‘special’ that is something not normally served. The staff are tops and the price is right.

A scenic quiet restaurant to take your sweetheart. I think I had the American burger. It was good.

The freedom fighter chicken sandwich was delicious and flavorful. The side house salad was fresh and a nice, healthy alternative to fries. The Philly cheese steak sandwich was awesome, not greasy. The patio was quiet and the trees offered plenty of shade.

GREAT food. Ask for the daily special and ask to talk to Chef Randy if you have any questions. Great experience and I will certainly be going back!

This is a great spot for lunch! The regular menu has many great items and there are usually 1 – 2 daily specials that are amazing! The Bistro is also right on American Lake. In summer when the weather is nice it is absolutely gorgeous sitting outside by the marina. When the weather isn’t nice, the décor and ambience inside are great too.
