Fodor's Expert Review The French Bistro

$$$ Martinborough French

Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.

Like the black-and-white photos of Parisian models that adorn the walls of this award-winning bistro, the regional cuisine is done with style. Settle into the modern chrome-and-black room for chef–owner Wendy Campbell's similarly contemporary creations. Critics from as far flung as New York heap praise on the food, which includes delectable morsels like roasted duck breast in flaky pastry with duck liver parfait and crepes suzette coupled with French vanilla ice cream. There is an excellent selection of local wines provided by Wendy's husband, Jim, an exceptionally talented sommelier.
