Bistrot de Soleil Restaurant and Bar

This hidden gem is on a side street on the west end of Hyannis’s main street. The dining room is a roomy mix of tables and booths, with one side airy with a high ceiling, the other more intimate. The sophisticated menu is a pleasing mix of old and new, so we have beef Wellington and coquilles Saint Jacques as well as a variety of gluten-free and vegetarian options. Among the least expensive menu items are the various burgers, served on a locally baked bun with seasoned fries. There is also a list of unusual risottos, such as one with salmon, sweet peas, gorgonzola, and grilled zucchini. A well-chosen wine list and homemade desserts complete the picture.
