Of course, Cyrano's offers a capable steak frites. The grilled sirloin is of good quality, but the frites caught our attention. You'll find the ostrich pate on the list, along with Durand's frites and a daily omelet. The dining room is simple and attractive. Yellow walls and bright blue ceilings look festive, and mirrors in ornate frames hang on the walls.
Lighting is subdued enough to be considered romantic.
Tables are spaced generously, and wide aisles make it easy for waiters to maneuver. When Cyrano's Bistrot opened, the Durands made the prescient move of hiring Jimmy Rohr as sort of a short-term manager, ensuring a smooth launch. And indeed, early visits to the bistro found the front room running smoothly. Rohr has now moved on, but Jamie Durand does a fine job on her own. Things are not so smooth on nights when Jamie Durand is not present.
