Bonobo American Bistro

Loved the vegetarian friendly menu! Drink menu also unique/fun. Food was delicious!

Not as good as the North Star bistro it replaces

Our dining experience was very enjoyable. The food, service, and ambiance was just what we were looking for. They offered four dining specials in addition to the regular menu. Nothing disappointed us. Table of five. Very COVID safe and we will be back. Anxious for the outdoor dining to open as well.

All great, food and service.

Fantastic fish fry

Good food, good service, food a Little cool, drinks good, although out of one . Overall we will come back !

Felt very safe and socially distanced! Everything was great!

Chef knows what he is doing. Our waiter said he changed jobs to Bonobo with the chef from his previous restaurant, which shows a mutual respect that doesn't seem very common. The result was a waiter who knew the menu, knew how to handle his tables, and could promote the strengths of the chef.

We had the duck, which was on special for Valentine's Day and was 10/10. I'd go back again to try the skate wing or some of the other options, certainly with high expectations.

Very good special-whitefish puttanesca was excellent as was the clam chowder.
Perch fish fry was good, but was wondering if this was ocean perch and not lake perch. They were larger filets with a different shape and were not as sweet as lake perch.

Wine and drinks were good and Paul served us well.

The food and service were great! I could’ve really gone for a port wine with dessert to end the night though.

Food at Bonobo is always great! Old fashions are one of my husband's favorites at this restaurant. I go back for the salmon salad everytime! Great atmosphere! This was our first time to eat inside since weather turned cold. We totally love the outdoor seating but were quite pleased with the inside seating as well!

Henry the server is wonderful!. Food was tastey as well.

The rabbit was great and very worth the trip. Highly recommend.

The server (Jay) was excellent and the food/atmosphere was outstanding. I can't wait to visit again!

Dinner and drinks were excellent. Highly recommend!

First time there. Wonderful place.i have all intentions of going back soon.

Excellent service, food was prepared spot on. Ambience was perfect. Will definitely return!

Food, drink and service were good as always. The heater on the patio blows smoke, so it felt like we were sitting next to a campfire. Which I did not enjoy.

Very good food but pricey. Long wait for sandwich but not wait person fault. Very friendly wait staff

Very nice setting. Server was attentive and had wonderful recommendations. Yummy cocktails!

Good food, good service, adapted well to current situation with spacing and outdoor seating

Excellent imaginative food and courteous attentive service. The chef came up with his own way to enhance the fried calamari by including perfectly seasoned potatoes that were cubed snd roasted to be crispy on the outside and soft inside.Mushroom Swiss burger was also delicious.

I love eating al fresco at Bonobo. Due to the pandemic they have the tables spaced very far apart so you don't have to worry about hearing other conversations at the table near by. There are lots of various fire "pits" to keep customers warm as the evenings cool off too. For dining we love the calamari, beets and brussel sprouts appetizers. If you get two or three of them, they can make a meal. Add a few cocktails and YUM!
Their burgers are good and my friend really likes their sweet potato fries.
Prices are a little above normal, but the food is delicious.

Food is great! I often go there thinking I'm going to order off the menu, and end up going with something that the chef has created special for that evening ... and it's always amazing! They have GREAT outdoor space too!

The eats at Bonobo were excellent. Tasty and tender short ribs of beef, sauteed skate wing and delish roasted brussel sprouts. They even cooked the green beans to perfection. The only complaint is the drinks (Old Fashioned and mojito). They were a little weak.

Excellent and very enjoyable!

Great ambience. I had the short ribs and my companion had the scallops. Both presentations were great, food was very tasty. I will be back.

The people in my party raved about their fish fry. I had the shrimp but it wasn’t truly coconut shrimp, more of just a breaded deep fried shrimp. It took longer than average for our food to come. Overall it was a good experience.

Great! Wonderful service, creative cocktails and delicious food!! We loved the patio.

We reserved a specific outdoor table online, and when we arrived, our table was occupied. The hostess apologized and said it’s been a little crazy with the new menu tonight.

Also, we ordered the perch dinner which was very good. It is usually served with French fries and coleslaw, but this time it was served with French fries and potato salad. Two potatoes? Makes no sense. Please bring back the coleslaw!

The 2 guys playing music were so loud we had to move inside to hear each other talk. They played very well but we were there to talk with friends

Small menu but our food was prepared very well. Will be returning.

Had a great dinner- beautiful patio. Lindsey our waitress was so sweet and knowledgeable. We had the beet salad as an appetizer, which was perfect. Also enjoyed our main courses. A lovely evening all around! Can’t wait to try out the other nightly experiences.

Great as always. The beautiful outdoor weather enhanced the great food and excellent service.

Kids menu is great!!

We love tha Paul always recognizes and remembers us

Tuna tartare app was amazing, bbq tofu entree was about 100x better than expected. Best old fashioned I've had in a minute. Heard they have live music on Thursdays, can't wait to come back!!

Had a shaky start, as it was unclear what waitstaff was assigned. The manager figured out what had to happen.. from then on, everything was outstanding. Food was terrific, great wine, excellent service. Will go back!

Really great service. It was quiet and they did a fantastic job with social distancing and sanitizing. I felt incredibly safe. I had the chicken and mushroom risotto and it was wonderful. We had the beet starter as a table and it was really fresh and tasty. Drinks were great (a smidge strong but no one complains about that!). Will be back!

Met owner’s friends from Madison, and charmed. Both couples celebrating anniversaries.

Street life has right vibe!

Beet salad the best. White flatbread só so. Rib dish all the best, except the sauce. Put on side or cut salt to a fifth or a tenth of what it is, like Europe. Let natural flavors come thru.

Congrats on your new venture.
