Thanks,
What price range is it?
And how does it compare to glatt bite?
Glatt bite is fast food.

Bistro is a sit down/waiter service.

And yes, it's owned by shloimy Kaufman. He has a great reputation from entree.

How can it be owned by entree yet they use the same kitchen as yapchik?

I went to bistro, the food was delicious and service was great. I ordered a rib steak and by mistake got a skirt stake, ended up getting both and the skirt steak was free! Very little ambiance... but overall very nice experience.

Here's my review:

Food       
Service         
Ambience/price

Was nice and quiet with people coming and going, some larger groups at times, food was served in imitation dinnerware...

Got pastrami egg roll for starter


Vegetable soup
(no picture)

Teriyaki chicken and SCRUMPTIOUS sweet potato fries


Grilled Chicken and mushroom rice


Chocolate lover


And here's my receipt for those who want to know prices

My bistro bill came to $110 (including tax and tip). We had:
Corned beef gnocchi- was excellent
Pulled beef flatbread- pretty good (I think chipotle flavored)
Skirt steak with sweet potato fries- steak was very juicy and flavorful, fries were perfect.
The mouse trio for dessert- 3 mason jars with strawberry shortcake, red velvet and salted caramel. Pretty solid, shared by 2 but couldn't finish as it was too much.

As I said before, food was great, price for the ambiance was slightly off. If they can adjust either of those then it would be perfect. I would definitely go again even as is.

Nah. Think it's cheaper during the week though.
