Get the souffle!  5 Star Rating - World class

I had the pleasure of dining at Bistango a few years back. The atmosphere is beautiful - there are art displays throughout. The waitstaff was very nice and prompt. And the food was to die for! I had the filet mignon - it was superb! For dessert, I tried the chocolate souffle - I don't think I'd tasted anything that decadent before. The meal was also presented beautifully rather than just plopped onto plates.

Pros: Amazing food, courteous staff, beautiful atmosphere, chocolate souffle
Cons: High prices (but in this instance you truly do get what you pay for)

Great Italian Food  5 Star Rating - World class

I went here with people from work and I was pleasantly surprised how good the food was and the wine list was extensive. I was inpressed with the staff - from hostess to waiters to the bartenders. We had a great time and will certainly return for another great meal. Prices are a bit high but you do get quality and professional staff.

Fabulous!  5 Star Rating - World class

My husband and I frequently eat here and have never had a bad dinner. Very professional wait staff and high quality, delicious food. Great place for a special occasion dinner - entrees average $30.

My favorite place in Orange County ! 5 Star Rating - World class

I discovered Bistangos on a trip to California and for the past 5 Years, I fly in from Las Vegas once a week to have dinner. I live in the City of Fine Dining and Entertainment and have been to all the best of the best here in LV. Bistangos has a wonderful ambiance and the staff is terrific. Bill Blank is always accomodating when he knows I am flying in for dinner and each week seems better than the last. The food is absolutely excellent and the Wines and special events they offer should not be missed. If you want the best and have not experienced fine dining, then make sure Bistango's is your first choice !

Pros: Excellent Service !
Cons: There are no cons to this place.

Great Filet 5 Star Rating - World class

I Believe you're missing out on a true gem if you don't try Bistango... The Asparagus Salad is superb, the Wine List is Excellent and the Filet is the best anywhere... I've tried the other's on the best list and they don't compare...

Pros: great pricing, very cool patio for a cigar after dinner
Cons: cant think of one

Great Food and wonderful service 5 Star Rating - World class

The restaurant that thinks it's an art gallery. Food, service and atmosphere are all very nice. The kitchen clearly knows what it's doing. After all they have been doing it for about 20 years.

Pros: Complimentary valet parking. great food, good wine list
Cons: sort of hard to find at first

DO NOT EAT HERE! 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

i've been to this establishment twice..first time was a decent experience, second time sent me directly to the hospital. I got food posioning from their garlic soup and pizza..this was confirmed by a Doctor of Medicine at the UCI hostpital. Everyone at my table that day got the same thing so this leads me to believe my food was tampered with since myself and the server exchanged some words when it took her 25 minutes to take our order.

IF YOU WANT TO BE KNEES DOWN IN FRONT OF A TOILET FOR 5 HOURS YOU SHOULD EAT AT BISTANGOS RESTURANTE.

be careful.

Pros: good ambience, good general manager
Cons: awful service, sickening food.
