5 /5 Natalie K: Everything was so perfect Were kicking ourselves for not having tried out this place earlier, despite having heard so many good things! As we came in on a weekday night, we were seated right away (they do take reservations too). The inside is family friendly and cozy, with some nice jazzy type music playing. We started of with a delicious cup of creamy brussel sprout soup as recommended by our server. Then a salad with raspberry vinaigrette (they offer a good variety of other homemade salad dressings as well). The vegetables were fresh, and the provided bread was buttered and grilled well. We tried the Bistro Crab cakes, Ribeye, and Filet mignon, wish mashed potato, sautéed veggies and gnocchi for the sides. Everything was delicious and seasoned well. The star of the show was the Filet Mignon Au Poivre. It was one of the best filets we have ever had. The preparation in particular (cooked rare, as requested) was perfect. The meat was tender and flavorful. The generous amount of pepper cream sauce really complimented the dish. Our server, Michael, was very attentive, polite, and professional. We enjoyed our experience here, and will be back to try more dishes.

5 /5 Nathan Shontz: Bistro 26 in Erie, PA is an absolute gem. The atmosphere is warm, comfortable, and inviting — the kind of place where you can settle in and truly enjoy a great meal. The wait staff is consistently top-notch: friendly, attentive, and genuinely invested in making sure you have a great experience every time. And then there’s the food — specifically, the Filet Mignon au Poivre, which might just be one of the best dishes in all of Erie. Perfectly cooked, tender, and packed with rich flavor, it’s the kind of entrée that reminds you why dining out can be such a treat. Whether you’re celebrating something special or just want an excellent dinner in a relaxed setting, Bistro 26 never disappoints. Highly recommended.

5 /5 Coffee Now: The food was quite good, service took awhile due to an almost full room, but thats understandable. We had a variety of seafood and vegetarian dishes, my vegetarian selections were very good, which included the Ravioli. Salads had fresh purple and greens, which was delicious. Chocolate cake and creme bulee rounded off thr desserts. The pricing, in my opinion, was higher than I thought it should be, particularly since the ambiance reminds me of a Bob Evans. However, the food and the service were just fine.
