Founded in August 2006, by Christophe Poteaux & Michelle Garbee, Bastille is a contemporary bistro and wine bar.
Chef Christophe Poteaux and Michelle Garbee (formerly Executive Chef and Pastry Chef of Aquarelle at the Watergate Hotel) are the heart and soul of Bastille. Their menu creations are based on a combination of traditional, yet modern interpretations of classic bistro fare.
Bastille is however, a modern, not "old-school" classic French bistro.
Bastille is viewed as a "bistro gastro" (as so many great French chefs are opening nowadays): "A simple and comfortable setting with fine dining food at bistro prices".
The bold flavors, combined with rich and exciting creations…that is what makes Bastille the perfect place for a romantic night out, impressing your business clients or a refined wine dinner with friends.
The hand-picked wine selections offer more than 120 labels with over twenty of them available by the glass or tasting pour (half glass)
For all these reasons and a few of your own, we know that Bastille will be the place you come to for your next…lunch, dinner, wine tasting or pre theatre gathering…
