text: We had reservations for dinner prior to attended a performance at the Smith Center It was Sunday and there were performances in theaters We arrived minutes early and the restaurant was packed Our hostess was telling walkins that they were filled up and the only seating available was on the patio Our hostess took us to a small table with no lighting and we felt that it would not be possible to read the menu We asked for another table and one that I pointed out was not available since the table was broken Lost Revenue We were offered another table that seated people which was difficult getting into but satisfactory The duecor is artsy nice tables like artist palettes and fits in with the neighborhood nnServicenOur waitress asked if we were going to the Smith Center and since we were she would get us out quickly It appeared from the customers attire everyone was going to the Smith Center We ordered glasses of wine and dinner at the same time It seemed like a long wait for the wine about minutes After a while I asked the waitress about our wine and she said there was only bartender and things were backed up My wife ordered the French Onion Soup as an entruee and I ordered the Barramundi Sea Bass The French Onion Soup came out separate from the Sea Bass I waited minutes before asking a passing waiter to check on my entruee He immediately bought it to the table I wonder if it was sitting in the kitchen waiting to be picked up Upon arrival I asked why both dinners were not brought out together and the response was the fish takes longer than the soup I repeated the question and the waiter agreed that they should have been brought together It appears the restaurant is overwhelmed by the amount of business from the Smith CenternnFoodnThe soup was warm not hot and since it arrived early my wife ate it since it would have been cold if she waited for my dinner The soup was tasty with a good sweetness to the onions My entruee was very good The fish was cooked perfectly and had a tasty saucennIf not for the service issues I would award Bar Bistro stars It might be interesting to go there on a non theater night Bar Bistro is a nice addition to the Las Vegas Arts District nOne final comment our waitress did not ask if we would like dessert
