Bijou Restaurant

Inventive food of a high quality. Not inexpensive but the use of local ingredients is noted and appreciated. I'd rather pay 25% more for Perth County pork, beef, etc. than save 25% had the restaurant used Gordon Food Services wholesale supply meat. Raspberry gazpacho was fun but a bit too spicy; I like spicy but I wanted to taste more of the summer raspberry flavour. The crispy duck with wild berries, nuts, flax seeds was fun and rustic. Presentation was nice.

An intimate little place with an attention to detail that makes it special even among a flock of excellent restaurants in Stratford. Given the min industry in that town, which is high culture, you would expect creative and well cooked food. But the general sense that getting it ri is important to them comes through loud and clear. First truly French restaurant I've eaten at outside of France. Highly recommend.

"A culinary gem" is an extremely accurate tag line. I took my mom here for her birthday and it was hands down the best meal we have had in time. We could not find a fault anything, from service to ambiance to the food itself, it was the definition of perfection. I cannot express how great this place is. I think everyone should dine here.
