One Bistro Making its home in The Four Points by Sheraton Norwood Hotel and Conference Center in Norwood, Massachusetts, One Bistro succeeds in being both a relaxing and sophisticated room, with its open kitchen, subdued lighting, refined furnishings and urbane feel. No ordinary hotel restaurant, this upscale eatery is getting a lot of fanfare for its fare…so how did we weigh in?
We begin with a bowl of rich onion soup. This potage of caramelized onions, veal stock, sherry and a Swiss/mozzarella mix was simply sublime. On to a salad, featuring arugala, endive, radicchio, golden beets and creamy orbs of fresh goat cheese. Light, yet substantial and oh so good.
The veal Osco Bucco was not quite as falling-off-the bone tender as we would have liked, but we were impressed with the inspired pairing of baby squash and pappardelle pasta as sides for the deeply seared and simmered shanks. The Bistro Bavette was an amazing union of flank steak draped in cognac cream sauce over incredible wild mushroom ravioli. Bravo to Bistro One for this signature dish.
A warm folded chocolate crepe topped with chocolate gelato and rum raisin crème anglaise was nicely done, but the sweet star was the warm gingerbread with flambé apples in apple jack sauce served with vanilla ice cream. This large square of spicy goodness deserved a round of applause.
The staff is welcoming, efficient and knowledgeable at One Bistro and value is quite high with appetizers from $4.50 to $12; entrees running the range from a $10 burger to a $42 stuffed lobster and desserts averaging $6.
For its elegant atmosphere, appealing menu, skilled chefs and excellent service, One Bistro will take the Gold Plate.
