A mere two-minute walk from theTarragon theatre, this place is tiny so you’ll likely have to reserve, but classic comforting French bistro dishes like duck confit accompanied by the perfect glass of wine await you here. A prix fixe dinner menu for $35 a head is served each night, ending at 6:30.
This stunning space close to theRoyal Alexis on the lobby level of the Shangri-La hotel, and will ensure your pre-theatre dinner is well-timed and elegant with choices on the menu like tomato consomme, wild chinook salmon, agnolotti, and apple rhubarb pie or cucumber and lime bavaroise.

There’s no specific pre-theatre menu at this French bistro, but it's located directly across from theYoung Centre for the Performing Artson Tank House Lane in the Distillery District. Small plates like asparagus frites, PB & J foie gras or salt cod donuts can be enjoyed on the fly as well as items from the raw bar.
