Bistro—Market—Wine Bar
Recently opened at 1800 Wilson Blvd. in
Arlington, is a restaurant, market and wine bar called Bistro 360. Art Hauptman, who owns Cassatts restaurant on Lee
Highway near Glebe Road, is a principal at Bistro
360. Taking a look at Bistro’s menu, developed by executive
chef Scott Person, my first thought was, “Wow! A little Asian, a little
Italian, a little Southern, a little Eastern Europe and a little French.” For starters, I tried the onion cabbage soup
and butternut squash bisque with a side of fried green tomatoes. Delicious. I
was tempted to get the antipasto platter with charcuterie, cheeses, salad and
pickled vegetables because Bistro’s
market features a wonderful array of cheeses. Another item I passed up, but will
try later, was a roasted lamb flatbread with feta cheese and caramelized
onions. It looked great! Entrees are divided into pastas and rice, seafood,
rotisserie and meats. I chose the miso glazed salmon with bok choy along with
lo mein noodles. My wife had a lemongrass pork chop served with gnocchi and
snap peas. Both entrees were beautifully presented and seasoned perfectly. Chef
Scott said his shrimp and grits and steak dishes are also very popular. Bistro 360 is an up and coming restaurant between Rosslyn and Clarendon.
It’s open seven days a week for dinner plus
brunch on Saturday and Sunday. For more information and reservations,
