Pine and Black Bistro

Went here for date night with the wife and so glad we did. I remember when the place was a sushi restaurant, and upon walking in, the transformation of the space was pretty amazing. To me it has a trendy but rustic look.
It was pretty busy when we went, which was a Saturday night, but luckily we made reservations. I think that's probably the way to go since this seems like a popular spot.
The staff was welcoming, and our server was attentive and informative, given this was our first time visiting.
I ended up ordering the fried chicken, the wife got the bibimbap. We also ordered the Brussels sprouts/cauliflower in Thai chili sauce appetizer which was super yum!
The wife really liked her dish. Tasting it myself, I thought it was very good as well.
My fried chicken was good, but it was borderline overdone. The crust was a dark brown vs golden brown, and retained a bit more grease than I would have liked. And, the meat was right on the line of being overcooked. BUT... luckily it wasn't, though it was close. Overall, my dish was tasty and the accompanying risotto and carrot puree were delicious.
I would definitely recommend stopping in if you haven't already.

Our first time at Pine and Black. We have very fast service, the food was delicious, and so was the Maui Mule. For the appetizer, we got the GOAT. Which is a must try. My husband got the Pacific fish and chips and I got the salmon+shrimp+greens (both entrees pictured). The dressing for my entree was mild-medium spicy, which I liked.

My boyfriend took us here for Valentines this year, I had never heard of it but been to Twisted Cork. IT WAS AMAZING! The best food we’ve both had in a very long time. I got the special Valentines 3 coarse menu and it was incredible. I usually get pretty full after the appetizers, however the portion sizes and lightness of each dish was perfect, I finished every bite. My boyfriend got the Sea Bass and Scallops. He also thought it was absolutely amazing. The sea bass was incredibly fresh tasting and cooked to perfection. The lobster bisque i had was the BEST i’ve ever had in town, and the dessert was absolutely amazing and exciting (they made it one time on master chef lol) We had the poached pear, I wasn’t thinking much honestly but once again, one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. I didn’t get my waitresses name, but she has a darker caramel colored hair with glasses. She was lovely! In both of our opinions, if they turned off the extra bright lights and kept the low hanging lights on with the candles, it would be absolutely perfect. Thank you to all the staff for making our Valentine’s day unforgettable.

Oh we will be back! Delicious!! Definitely get the GOAT appetizer- it’s goat cheese, cauliflower bread and strawberries. Not a mix I’d think I’d like but we loved it! The steak on everything was perfect. Dreaming of our next visit! It is a little pricey.

We were told about this restaurant by a friend and decided to go for a date night outing. The atmosphere was lovely and quaint, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We ordered the ahi tuna nachos (must-try) they were fantastic! The entire menu sounded so good we couldn't decide what to get. After much deliberation my husband ordered the Prarie Fire and I ordered the Figgy Chicken. Both were absolutely delicious. The chef is amazing and all the flavors in each component of the dish were thoughtful and delicious.

We will 100% come back here. Anyone looking for a good cocktail or wine, way above average food, and a great experience o come here! Not to mention it's locally owned!
