Review of the Bon Vie French Bistro in Columbus, Ohio

How to Get From Port Columbus to Easton Restaurants - Fortunately, the Port Columbus International Airport offers a convenient shuttle service to and from Easton Towne Center in Columbus, Ohio that makes frequent round trips. If you don't want to wait for the shuttle, you can take a short, three-minute cab ride about one mile down Stelzer Road. From there, you can easily walk to any of the best restaurants at Easton. If you drive a rental car to Bon Vie, you'll want to take advantage of the valet parking, especially on the weekends. Easton Towne center draws a crowd from all over Columbus, Ohio which can make parking difficult.

The Bon Vie Bistro, French Café and Bistro Experience - Would you care for the experience of a warm, Spring day at a French café? According to a French restaurant reviewer, Bon Vie at Easton Towne Center has "created an experience that is the closest approximation to what a sidewalk cafe or bistro would be in France!" If you enjoy outdoor café dining, then you'll especially love what Bon Vie has to offer. The outdoor dining patio is thrust in front of a large pool and fountain that spouts water almost as high as the restaurant itself. For the best view, dine at Bon Vie after sunset when the pool and fountain are lit. During the week, there's practically no one around the fountain and it's likely you'll have the place and the park benches surrounding it to yourself.

The food and service are also of the highest quality available near Port Columbus International Airport. However, while the food is great, it's not authentic French cuisine. It's better defined as French-American but the ambiance and service more than makes up for it. Another drawback is the possibility for the Ohio weather to spoil your fun. Ohio experiences the best and worst of all four seasons which makes it a fickle place when it comes to the forecast. The locals like to say, "If you don't like the weather in Ohio, wait a minute". As for the price, expect to pay around $100 for dinner, drinks and dessert for two. It's not the least expensive place to dine at Easton but it's true that you get what you pay for.

Whether you're traveling alone or with loved ones, for business or for pleasure, Bon Vie French Café and Bistro is a winner.
