Vogue Bistro & Bar

Vogue Bistro & Bar Restaurant Review:

About the restaurant: France, in the far West Valley? It's true. What were once cotton fields, tumbleweeds and home to the occasional casual Mexican or hamburger shop, has now turned into a little retreat with Gallic and American bistro fare.

Food & Drinks: Patrons might start off with salmon with crème fraîche, or charcuterie of artisanal meats and cheeses with fresh fruit, ground mustard, fig and apple compote. Bistro fare includes flatiron steak with brandied peppercorn sauce and frites, coq au vin, duck confit and scallops with citrus beurre blanc. A few dishes unexpectedly wander the globe, like plantains, truffled mac ‘n’ cheese and an awfully good "blue jeans" burger with blue cheese, applewood smoked bacon, caramelized onion chutney and arugula on brioche. Desserts might bring bread pudding or crème brûlée. The cocktails are named after fashion giants like Dior, Versace and Chanel.
