Bistrot is an elegant restaurant situated in Viale Franceschi, Forte dei Marmi. It offers the best of dining by the beachside along with delicious and naturally fresh food. It is generally open for both lunch and dinner.

The pastas are fresh and home made. But of course the highlights of the menu are the seafood on offer. Some of the highly recommended dishes include carpaccio di branzino where thin slices of bass are seared on a high flame and then seasoned with fresh local olive oil, tomatoes and basil. Another favourite is the risotto with lobster. There is another typical dish called sauté di frutti di mare which is a combination of clams, garlic and tomato and has the consistency of something between that of a stew and a soup.

A range of desserts are available but the hot flan dotted with pieces of white and plain chocolate is definitely an excellent way to complete your meal.

Situated along the beautiful coast it has a lot to offer especially to the tourist. You will find a few locals frequenting the restaurant to enjoy the excellent sea food. Visit this restaurant especially if you love fresh seafood and fine dining as the prices are a bit on the high side. It is better to book a table in advance.
