Really mediocre, food was bland boring and all in all just bad. Service was the bare minimum and clunky at the best of times, sorbet was just ice cream, mousse was over whipped and ruined. Raspberry mojito was absolutely disgusting, mint was dead, brown and muddled so bits of mint kept seeping through the straw, cubed ice not crushed ice. Then the calamari came out, 5 pieces of calamari as a starter is very poor, and was served with a lime??? Garlic butter didn't taste of anything except herbs, no garlic whatsoever. No atmosphere at all, the playlist of music was so random and more like what you would expect in a bar or nightclub. How is this place still open?!? There wasn't a single good thing about it and it was expensive. Really poor and puts French food to shame, won't be returning that's for sure, so disappointed 😞

Visited with 3 old school friends. We are all in our 70s so not teenagers. The whole experience was spoiled by sheer disinterest of the management. 3 meals were ok. Meal number 4 arrived cold. They had actually forgotten to heat it up. Not a single word of apology was offered and no real offer of an alternative. Been 3 years running. Not next year.

NOTYINGHAM BRANCH Well, starting with walking in what looked like a chef outside the door smoking, and smelt of booze. He looked dishevelled and unkempt. We nearly turned around then but as we had booked and had been traveling all day we thought we would stay. It didn't get much better. Dirty cutlery and glass wear , when we mentioned this they didn't look to impressed and walked away and went to speaknto some one and then they both glared at us and smirked. We felt very un welcome. When we asked for the service charge tp be removed they took 20 mins to bring the bill back again even though restaurant wasn't busy. After that experience I'm not surprised.

A trip to Bistro Pierre used to feel special, but our meal last night was very poor. On the plus side the staff were friendly and the atmosphere nice. But the food was average to poor (I got a no quibble refund on my main course which was not good at all). The desserts looked like school dinners. Disappointed.

It was extremely busy on a Wednesday lunchtime, so pre-booking is advised. Although there were many diners, the food delivery time was quite acceptable. We enjoyed our minute steaks, washed down with a free bottle of wine courtesy of the app birthday offer. The occasion was topped off by the pleasant service from Orla.

Better than most restaurants. Good service, not too long waiting to be served. Really tasty food. Would have given 5 stars were it not for the point that when asked how I would like my steak, I answered “medium”, but sadly the choices are either “pink” or “well done”. I had the Boeuf Bordelaise. I also had the cheese board, and it is probably my mistake to ask for butter with the dish , but it doesn’t offer butter as part of the plate. They did bring me a side pate of butter though. Not too expensive either

Short review: Incredibly delicious and high quality meal, and satisfying portion sizes for the price Long review: Came here with my girlfriend for a special meal we had planned for some time. We chose this place because of the glowing reviews, although it looked to be at a price point higher than the places we normally go to. We were greeted by a friendly waitress Caitlin, and decided to order some bread, olives and Chorizo as starters to share. The bread was clearly freshly baked, still warm with a crispy crust. It was a decent sized loaf for 2, and came with a soft garlic butter, which was lightly salted and very tasty. The olives were a mixture of a few varieties, which tasted fresh and high quality, and the chorizo was incredible. We got 5 house made small chorizo sausages, which were lightly charred and coated in honey. These were incredible on their own and with the bread, and the honey balanced the saltiness of the chorizo and olives perfectly. Together these came to about £12.50. I would especially recommend this combination, particularly the chorizo. For my main, I ordered the duck breast, and my Girlfriend had the 8oz sirloin. The duck dish consisted of a large whole duck breast (which was offered pink or well done, so I opted for pink), a square of dauphinoise potatoes, a poached peach half, a red wine jus, broccoli, hazelnuts and chicory, costing a total of £23.95 (this was one of the more exoensive options, with some ofbthe cheaoer options costing £15) The duck was cooked perfectly to my liking. The fat was not as crispy as I would usually prefer, but was still rendered down and was soft rather than chewy. It was very juicy, tender, and had a complex flavour. The dauphinoise potatoes were lightly crispy on the outside, with a creamy soft texture I'm the inside, with a hint of onion and cheese. The red wine sauce was very savoury with a nice saltiness, and when paired with the duck and some of the peach, made for the perfect bite. The vegetables were cooked slightly soft in he middle, with a satisfying crisp on the outside. Allong with the crunchy nuts, this added some textural variety from the softness of the duck, peach, and potatoes. Would highly recommend this dish for anybody else considering going The sirloin steak came with a small metal basket of fries, and a generous helping of melted compound butter over the steak. She ordered hers medium rare, and told me that it was perfectly cooked for her. The fries were thin and crispy, with a generous amount of seasoning, and the butter made it even better (because it's butter, and you can never go wrong with adding more of it). This also cost £23.95 For desert, we each had the Creme Brulee. It arrived in a much wider ramekin than usual, meaning we got a large area of the sugar layer. A scrape with a spoon showed that it was perfectly torched, with a glass-like feel. The spoon cracked very satisfyingly through the layer. The custard tasted perfect to me, with a good balance of sweetness and vanilla. The sugar has a great snap to it, and had a subtle bitter note that tied the desert together and stopped it from feeling overly rich. Easily the best creme brulee I've had, and would highly recommend. These got £7.25 each. It is also worth mentioning that our waitress Roi, as well as Caitlin, and Duarte who greeted us at the door all gave us excellent service, and appeared genuinely friendly. Roi in particular seemed very friendly and genuine, and made us leave feeling very happy with the whole experience. Besides the food and staff, the atmosphere and decoration was cozy and calming, with a lot of interesting things in the walls to stare blanky at while savouring an especially good bite. Could not recommend this place enough, even if the price is higher than the places you are used to.

My husband and I had the pleasure of dining at Bistrot Pierre in Nottingham to celebrate their 30th birthday. We were invited to experience their special nostalgic menu, and it was a delightful evening from start to finish. ❤️ The moment we stepped in, we were captivated by its charming and cozy atmosphere. The decor beautifully combines modern elegance with rustic touches, creating a warm and inviting setting. Their special nostalgic menu truly highlighted the best of French cuisine, celebrating 30 years of culinary excellence. We highly recommend visiting during this celebration week to indulge in their exquisite offerings - 3 courses and a 125ml glass of Cuvee selection 30 for £30 ✨ Entrées: We started off with rich and earthy Mushroom Sourdough and creamy Baked Goats Cheese. Both dishes were incredibly flavorful and served with complimentary freshly baked French bread and butter. Plats: For our main course, we chose the Caramelized Onion and Brie Tart. This dish was a standout, with its flaky pastry, sweet caramelized onions, and creamy Brie. It left us wanting more. Dessert: We shared the Cafe Gourmand for dessert, which included a trio of Crème Brûlée, Tarte au Citron, and a light Madeleine sponge with vanilla ice cream. Each component was a delight in its own right, and together, they provided a perfect ending to our meal. Overall, our experience was nothing short of exceptional. Here's to many more years of wonderful dining experiences. 🥂

Can I suggest trying the Mushroom Sourdough starter for £7.50? This consists of a small slice of sourdough bread, a light brown sauce and in my case about 3 strips of fried mushroom. The menu says, shiitake mushrooms. Note the use of the ‘s’ suggesting a number of mushrooms. The truth was there was hardly any shiitake mushroom at all! No wonder vegetarians get frustrated when they eat out.. The entertainment started about halfway through the the meal, when a young guy wearing a baseball cap arrived off the street. For about 5 minutes we were subjected to a rant about ‘finding God’ and repenting our sins.. One part of me suspects this individual had been served mushroom sourdough on a previous occasion..

Never again! Steak was overcooked and chewy. Sticky toffee pudding, which is usually made with dates, was a shop-bought Madeleine (oval-shaped sponge cake) with a trickle of treacle and a teaspoon of vanilla ice-cream. This used to be a top-class restaurant.

When we arrived it was quite busy but we were given a great table. Our orders were taken quickly, with the food arriving quickly too. They did miss out on some money however as we intended to order the cheeseboard alongside our mains, but they said we couldn't until later, which we never ended up doing. Overall a great place with nice food for a decent price, very worth it during a day out.

Last minute trip to Nottingham centre. Thought we’d try Pierre Bistro opposite John Lewis. Shown to a nice window seat upstairs. Ordered off their lunchtime menu. French onion soup and cream mushroom on sourdough bread: Arrived fairly promptly. Both dishes liked cold, you can tell!! Waitrose away very quick. Tried my mushrooms to check how hot. Not even luke warm. Same with the soup. Eventually tracked down the waitress. Asked for, and specifically ask for them to be hot, replacement dishes. Round two: just the same, this time the soup looked like the dregs off the bottom but still not even luke warm. Packed up and offered to pay for the water we’d had. Manager seemed very in concerned clients were walking out. Didn’t quite get the disappointment of 4 dishes not being anywhere near hot enough to serve. Credit though, we had a glass of water on the house. Must try harder (in the kitchen anyway)

My food was delicious and our waiter was very nice, but the welcome at the door was frosty. May I suggest that once you've accepted my deposit and confirmed my pre-orders, if you then think there is an issue with my booking and you haven't tried to contact me about this, then this should be the restaurant's problem and not mine, and my guests and I should be warmly welcomed into the restaurant? Friends of mine who arrived before me (and who were assumed to have made the booking) were horrified at how they were received. Please don't add stress like that to anyone's day. I'm a long-standing customer but unfortunately I'm not likely to come back. I've already left a version of this comment on the restaurant's internal review system after being asked to submit a review. It's a shame no one responded to that - would have been nice to hear something back.

Have been to this restaurant many many time in the past. Always liked the little classy touches that made it a special experience. We arrived and sat downstairs when we were told we were going to be upstairs which we prefer. No french bread brought to the table. No more specials. The menu was printed on an A4 piece of paper. The waitress seem to be in a hurry to get out order we had to request a few more minutes 3 times. I had no complaint about the food it was lovely but the little touches were that always made your night special in the past were gone. It seems that that the manager is concentrating on cost savings. I raised this with the manager privately and he decided to approach our table and have a debate about it and became defensive in front of other guests which I felt was very unprofessional. So Bistro Pierre has become a standard French restaurant rather than the classy, special venue that it once was. Very dissapointing!

This is one of my favourite restaurants in Nottingham. The atmosphere is great, it’s always lively and busy. We had the menu Pierre which is 3 courses £22.95 | 2 courses £18.95 . Their steak frites are amazing. The children’s menu is great too, good selection, nice food and big enough for older children.

Excellent afternoon. Lunch was delicious and very good value. We chose 2 courses from the Menu Pierre and we're very happy with our food. Our visit was made especially good by our waitress Marta who was very helpful and friendly. Thank you Marta x

We went for the lunch deal - we used to go regularly/before a matinee at the theatre but hadn't been for a considerable time as one of the party had said that the standard had dropped. Notwithstanding, we decided to give it a go in the hope that there had been improvements. The lunch deal was always popular but they seem to have squeezed even more tables in downstairs which made it very difficult to manoeuvre round the tables and the gap between the tables was so small, we may as well have all been on the same table! It was impossible not to overhear the conversation of the adjacent tables and it also made the dining area very loud and quite overwhelming. Turning to the menu, you no longer get a complimentary bread basket. There were fewer items on the menu in the lunch deal to choose from than previously. We all ordered the pork medallions and dauphinoise potatoes (this had ways been a firm favourite). When the dish came, it was actually just sliced meat and definitely not a medallion with crispy outer. The potatoes were most definitely not dauphinoise - it was just a square of sliced potatoes - they were dry, there was no creamy garlic sauce and they were tasteless and stodgy. The accompanying leaf of hispi cabbage was virtually raw. A very disappointing dish. We did have dessert but by that time we felt that we were being pressed to pay the bill and leave as the second sitting of diners were coming in and the place was virtually full....so we didn't have coffee or anything. We felt that the food was poor value for money mainly due to the above issues - we'd rather pay a bit more and get what was actually described on the menu! We've had better food from the students training in the college restaurant! On a positive, the waiting staff were very nice and helped sort an issue with the new App and were very patient with us. We always leave a tip but we're surprised to see that 10% service charge had automatically been added to the bill even though there were only 3 of us! I doubt we will be back sadly

Mixed feeling 😕 I'm not really sure how should I describe my visit in Bistro today... didn't dine here for a while and always was satisfied. Now, some of the staff looked a little bit lost and bored or totally out of control. Servers are running around while bartenders are watching, like I assumed after conversation with my boyfriend, some football match. Little disrespectful towards customers. 😒 sure will stay away from this place for a while…

Nice and quiet relaxing place to eat. Service is great, staff are lovely. My first old fashioned was a little weird. But the espresso martini was banging. Can get cheaper and better confit duck in London. The mash was watery and ‘winter veg’ was abit of basic kale. The gravy was unseasoned and tasted like bisto, the duck itself was just fine, nothing to rave about. I’d go back purely to try something else due to the staff being great.

Great place to dine for vegetarians. There is a great selection of freshly made vegetarian options. The risotto was very creamy and delicious 🤤. The staff were friendly and service was outstanding. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

The food was surprisingly delicious. As a picky eater, I still able to enjoy what was on offer. We were served by Marta and she was absolutely amazing, she even took some photos for us at the end of her meal.

Really poor food. Cold sausages, not lukewarm, but actually cold in the middle. Tepid bacon, lukewarm poached eggs. The mushrooms and tomatoes were undercooked though at least they were hot. I can only assume the chef called in sick. I've never been served sausages that...

This was our second trip to the restaurant and our expectations were generally met in almost every area. The onion soup was full of flavour. The chicken meal although nice was slightly underwhelming in taste. The 12 oz steak was an absolute highlight ( be warned it is a lot to consume along with the soup). The sticky toffee was nice and as it was my partner's birthday they done a nice job with the sparklers I provided. The resturant was quite full with others using the groupon options. It would have been nice to give my partner a complimentary birthday drink. The champagne in the glass when it was first bought was slightly flat and had to be returned which was slightly disappointing.

Pretentious and full of posers. Go somewhere else if you want a night of reckless abandon. If you want to hang out with the instagram selfie crowd, this in your vibe.

I have dined here on four occasions and found the first two to be excellent. However in September my husband and I had dinner and we both felt the food was well below standard but gave the benefit of the doubt that this was a one off. I dined here on the 25th with a friend and sadly the food was even worse than the time before. The Goan monkfish curry looked stunning on the plate but unfortunately the fish was dry, overcooked and lukewarm warm and the rice was equally tepid. I had no option but to send it back. My friend had the lamb which again was overcooked and dry and the portion was very small. I wonder if the food is pre-cooked off site and is then just heated up in the kitchen. Thank goodness the bread was tasty. On a positive note Daisy our waitress was very professional and extremely apologetic. I was very disappointed that the Maitre de did not acknowledge the issue before we left. Would I recommend this place to eat, no I wouldn’t. Serving food of this standard I can see why the hospitality industry is struggling.
