Open since July 4th, 2002, Black Cat Bistro is known for serving Innovative Farm Fresh Fare. The menu changes often as Black Cat Bistro consistently strives to present fare that is reflective of seasonal, local produce and organically raised or sustainable product.The food is especially cognizant of wine pairings to electrify the palate. The Black Cat has received the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence for nine years in a row.

Black Cat Bistro is small with 45 seats and this is part of what makes it such an intimate dining experience. The service is attentive, unpretentious and refined. The dining rooms are decorated in soothing colors and fabrics. Down pillowed benches frame the edges of two of the three rooms. Candle light adorns the tables covered with white linen. Food is served on white china and wine in crystal Riedel stemware.

We had two starters, a salad & brussel sprouts, and three entrees. The starters were good and two of the entrees well done. The sea scallop entree was a little overdone and the corn pudding in the middle was not hot. The Black Cat usually prepares very good meals. This night, they were off their game, likely because there were few customers. It was an expensive dinner.

This is one of our fav dinner spots. We love the historical house it’s in. The food is always good and upscale and at the same time comforting. The wine is great too. Great place for date night

The food and service were excellent. It was somewhat noisy to enjoy an intimate dinner. However, I would most certainly return to The Black Cat.

We had 6pm reservations. We were seated in a dim, stuffy, small back room with 9 other guests, and a dog. The ventilation was so poor it felt like we were seated in the kitchen. The room was drab and depressing. The chairs old and uncomfortable. Ambience begging for upgrade. Menu prices higher than listed online.

The fish special was overcooked, and the service left much to be desired. We arrived at 6:00 PM for dinner and didn’t finish until 7:30 PM due to delays during the dinner rush. While the restaurant has a charming ambiance and is visually appealing, the overall experience was disappointing.

The soup was served cold. The steak was so-so and the rack of lamb was served we’re in the rack was served bundled and hard to cut. The service was good so is the ambience.

The food is always fresh and deliciously prepared. My husband is unable to eat garlic/shallots/onions and they have consistently worked with his allergies and adapted their recipes so that he also has wonderful food!
