Great drinks, the baguette is amazing, perfectly sized small menu which you can grasp easily. Has vegetarian options as well! Would recommend the salmon, bread, french onion soup. Great service!

My husband and I have been coming here for 15 years! We stopped coming due to Covid and decided to add Bistro back on our rotation list and I must say we were thoroughly let down. The Chef's selection charcuterie board was a disappointment. Everything just tasted cheap and of low quality. I had the burger which was greasy, poor quality meat, and sloppily put together. The bun was so greasy it fell apart in my hand. I had two bits and I was done. Season your meat chef!! A little salt and pepper goes a looooong way. My husband had the Amish chicken that we ordered so many times before and always been our go to dish. It was absolutely tasteless and did not fit the standard of the bistro we became accustom to at all. All the old and familiar faces are gone and replaced with new unfriendly lackluster ones. They differently have a new chef and he needs to cooking for some hole in the wall burger joint and not a high end restaurant. R.I.P old Bistro Campagne.

It took us forever to get a reservation but I think it's completely worth it. I recommend their French onion soup and the tarte aux champignons. They have a great picturesque, quiet patio that is the perfect spot for a romantic evening date.

Beautiful garden with excellent array of modern food. I found the chicken dish slightly on the heavy side so if you’re in the mood for a hearty dish, which I wasn’t at the time, this would be a good fit for you. Whilst the server recommended fantastic wine pairings with a beautiful attitude, she did give a wrong dish and forgot an ordered beer for one person at our table which made the experience a little less professional. Noticeably long wait for food order as well hence a 4 and not a 5.

It was a lovely romantic setting (we sat in the backyard) to celebrate our anniversary. The staff was super nice and welcoming and the food! Fantastic all around.

Food experience was perfect. Exquisite patio dining with a wonderful server experience featuring Taylor. Support staff was attentive and prompt. Did the charcuterie and maison salad with a bottle of champagne, would recommend anyone looking for a fun evening in Lincoln square.

Intimate eatery serving excellent cuisine. Our pork belly appetizer had a delicious sauce with whole carrots. The baguette had a perfect thin crispy crust with a warm inside served with honeycomb, butter and roasted garlic cloves. Could've eaten a dozen of these.
The salmon had a tasty seasoning on top with a generous bed of mushrooms on pureed peas. The cassoulet was hearty with sausage, leg and thigh and pork. The bavette steak was tender and juicy, once again, with an excellent sauce.
We ordered the chocolate pot de creme, lemon on pistachio shortbread topped with a flamed meringue, and the bread pudding with figs. All were excellent. Cappuccino froth was a bit on the stiff side, but the port was nice. The Trappist Belgian ale was yummy and played well with all the flavors.
It is pricey, but we were celebrating a birthday and it was worth it for a special occasion. With tip it was $260 for three of us.

We go here every year. Excellent French onion soup and steak frites is top shelf. Yet, any pork dish is the main dish you should go with. The beer selection is outstanding and end with the bread pudding!

Had a lovely time here with friends a few weeks ago! It was so nice to have delicious French food in Chicago, and the waitstaff was phenomenal.
I don't think we had a single dish we disliked, but you should definitely try the mussels, peach tartine, chicken dish, the lemon tart, and the bread pudding. All in all - DELICIOUS!
The space is very cozy with dim lighting and small rooms. Two unisex bathrooms all on the ground floor, but there are some small change in floor heights that may be difficult for some walkers.

I can't speak highly enough about the restaurant. It's only my second time visiting, but the second time was the charm. My guest and I were feeling risqué, so we both ordered foods we weren't familiar with. What a surprise...everything was delightful. I had to ask my guest if it was just me because I was suuuuuper hungry (I had just broke a 6day fast), but she assured me that the food was really that good. Service was excellent...thx Kathlene! Kathleen was very helpful in helping make decisions on this adventure. Get the cognac!

I love Bistro Campagne; it's my go-to for big celebrations. The atmosphere indoors is enchanting, and the outdoor seating (ideal during covid) is cozy and magical with so much greenery and vines rising up the brickwork in a garden that is shielded from the noises of the road by fencing and a building.
The food is amazing, and although on the pricier side shows care and a shifting menu so you are in for a fresh experience each time. I also love absinthe and you can get a proper experience here with French absinthe and the correct setup if you've never tried it. I had trout almandine and it was conservatively seasoned to emphasize the delicate trout fillet. My companions loved their dishes as well.
Friendly, attentive staff and a night we won't forget. I wish I could have had the appetite for dessert.
They have reduced hours due to covid, and seating is first come first serve. But, we had no issue with seating on a warm August Saturday. Just try to get there near open if you are worried.

The courtyard is lovely! Such a nice environment for a celebration dinner or something special. The hibiscus margarita is very delicious with a nice floral aroma. The escargot is kinda bitter. Mussels are amazing. It’s heaven like to dip the baguette in the mussel soup. The main entries taste great- chicken is juicy and tender and I really like the crispy skin of the trout. Out of the three desserts, the creme brûlée is our favorite.
