The Atlantic Bistro

If you haven’t been over to the bistro, you are missing out!
The Atlantic Bistro is our favorite date night spot. The atmosphere is cozy, the staff & service are always so wonderful, and the food & drinks always leaving us craving more! We discovered The Atlantic Bistro through a friend several years back. We were looking for a nice date night spot to celebrate the holiday season. I had the seared scallops (cooked to perfection and served with delicious sides) and my now husband went for the duck. We both agreed they were the best meals we’ve had in the area. Since then, we return each season to enjoy the menu, the fantastic cocktail, wine & beer selection, as well as the delicious made-in-house desserts. We love the bistro so much, when we were deciding where to have our wedding, Jacob knew he wanted to have duck for his wedding meal, and I knew I wanted scallops. We reached out to owner Chef Chris, and he was honored to accommodate our total guest list of 50. He and his team worked so hard to make our dinner party exceptional and memorable! The service was absolutely outstanding, the cocktails kept pouring and the food was so delicious that here we are 2.5 months later and our guests are still talking about it. We were so thrilled Chris and his staff could make our wedding dinner party dreams come true. Thank you, Chris & team! The Atlantic Bistro will always feel like home!

Great Food, Friendly Staff. Highly recommend the Bistro Steak one of the best around and my go to dish here at The Bistro! great beer and drink selections, something for everyone. A true gem in Marion! Kudos to the chefs, as usual we will be back and encouraging others to visit! Thanks for a great night!!

This place is small and cozy very dim lighting which I like I went in by myself for dinner had a Burger it was excellent I'll definitely be going back..

Came in with the wife for dinner had a Caesar salad for an appetizer it was fantastic she had roast chicken it was so tender it was like eating filet of beef.. I got the Burger it was outstanding the French fries are ridiculous definitely one of the best restaurants in the area hands down..

I don't know how you could give this place anything other than 5 stars..

I freaking love this place and can't wait to go back.. I shouldn't post a review like this cause then it will get even harder to get a seat at this wonderful restaurant..

Definitely call ahead for reservations..!!

Fantastic menu. This place brings a perfect balance of creatively prepared food with fresh local ingredients to deliver shear perfection. The artisan breads were perfect to start. The salad with shallot dressing and spicy pecans was delicious. The seared scallops with polenta were unbelievable. Their selections of beer and wine were pretty good. The service was top notch!

The food is absolutely fantastic. We had 5 different dishes plus a salad, and everybody raved about their dish. The portions are good-sized, too. After a salad and an entree, we were too full for dessert.
There's nothing to absorb the sound, so it can be really noisy, but that's the only negative. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and took care of us VERY well.

The Bistro is by far my favorite restaurant in Massachusetts! We come all the way from Newport every once in a while because nothing compares to the gnocchi, steak or chicken dish...just the best things ever! The staff/owners are also the most helpful, welcoming and accommodating. Cant forget about the drinks and yummy dessert!

Beautiful place with excellent service!! From the small bar to the intimate seating, it was a wonderful experience. All of the food was great and we really enjoyed the atmosphere of the Atlantic Bistro.

We have been here a number of times, but Friday night was especially good. Lovely waitress and I loved skate special. My husband also loved his pork tenderloin.

Once again, Chris & his team did an amazing job last night! From the salad special, to the dessert, one bite after another was delicious. I can't say enough about this favorite go-to for my wife & I. Well done Chris!

What a wonderful experience!

A friend from Marion invited us here for dinner. The restaurant books up quickly, so we are at 5:30 on a Saturday. We’re told that the bar doesn’t reserve seats, so people can eat there, space permitting. We saw two parties eating at the nicely appointed bar.

For starters, we shared the crispy Thai Brussels sprouts and the gnocchi. The Brussels sprouts were shaved very fine then broiled. The server gladly brought us some fresh bread to dip in the gnocchi sauce.

For entrees, we had a lamb shank, the duck, and the chicken breast. We each thoroughly enjoyed our meals.

The restaurant had agoid wine list, and we shared a bottle of Au Bon Climate that our hostess selected.

Unfortunately, we didn’t have room for dessert.

We definitely recommend the Atlantic Bistro for fine dining. It would also be a great destination for a romantic meal.

The gem of the South Coast! Two great chefs who make eye popping dishes. The staff is the finest in the biz. Be sure to book a reservation. Highest recommendation.

Some of the best food we have had in New England. The savory gnocchi melts in your mouth and the Mediterranean prep with the perfectly seared scallops was delicious. My husband loved his halibut too. We will be going back! Wonderful to have this caliber of food in our area!

Message to fellow Foodies...
Sharing my experience on the truly superb meals enjoyed at The Atlantic Bistro in Marion, MA. Extremely high standard of cuisine, coupled with atmosphere that was sophisticated with quiet ambiance. We were all impressed with our absolutely delicious meals and attentive, friendly service. I enjoyed the Ceasar salad (rich and creamy dressing). My main course,I had the perfectly cooked, flavorful scallops. I highly recommend.
We decided to share desserts- Also Outstanding! To finish off this wonderful evening- we had the opportunity to meet the Chef and Owner,Chris. He's a professional who is passionate about food and cooking- a true gentleman.
"Totally a Five Star Rating!"

Very pleasant experience. A simple but very interesting menu. Reasonably priced. Service was at a relaxed and comfortable pace. My wife had the salmon and I had the pork chop. Both came with well prepared sauces and accompanying vegetables. The wine list was adequate. The fine coffee and dessert put a cap on a very pleasant evening
Will go back again.

They say you eat with your eyes first and what a treat this was! Presentation of dishes was so beautiful that we had to spend a few minutes admiring them before tasting them. They tasted even better than they looked!! What an unique menu with something for every palate. We can't wait to go back and work our way through every dish on the menu. ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!

Reserved the place for a meal and drinks with family and friends after a memorial service. Choice of Cod, Salmon, Chicken or Pork. All the meals were fantastic. Brooke and Lauren provided the service for about 18 of us. Couldn’t have asked for better service or nicer ladies. It was all top notch.

Very cute and cozy. The bartender was welcoming and made a nice cocktail. The menu is short but the food is creative and expertly prepared. The caesar, mushroom vol au vent and and seared scallops were all fantastic!

Great food . Hard to get a table . Always .
And it’s worth the aggravation for reservation or sit at the bar .

This restaurant has all of the fine details that you look for in an upscale restaurant. Their staff is extremely attentive and dotes on each of the guests in a very welcoming manner. The food is to die for and there is a simple, but extremely well-thought out menu that combines well-known dishes with their own personal culinary flair. The starters are hearty, and the entrees are filling. I recommend getting some of the macchiato ice cream to complete your meal, especially if you enjoy homemade pistachio biscotti. Parking is right off the main road or behind the building. Getting there at 5:30 PM was like having our very own personal dining experience.
10/10 for atmosphere, menu, and experience. This is a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion. We will definitely be making several trips back here!

We have been going here for years and went back last night for the first time since the pandemic forced closing. The food, drinks and staff are top notch every single time. The gnocchi is a must do and the Mushroom Tartine was a new addition and was one of the best things I have ever eaten. You won’t be disappointed
