Bistro 70

Established in 2004. Specialty Martinis Extensive Wine List Creative Menu Options When designing Bistro 70, my desire was to create an atmosphere that was casual enough for an afternoon lunch, yet upscale enough for an elegant dinner. I wanted to give people a place they could frequent for any occasion and at the same time, not sacrifice the service or ambiance one would find at a fine dining establishment. Bistro 70, deriving its name from its address, 70 N. Saint Clair in Historic Downtown Painesville, was at one time a 1940s Nash Rambler dealer. Since then, the space has been used as a bank, coffee house and restaurant. Before painting bold colors such as sunset-gold, huckleberry-blue, maple-red, and golden-gate on the walls and trim, I had to rip out an old-style mantle, walls, oak paneling, as well as the old oak bar. The space was redesigned to be warm, comfortable and beautiful. Having quality service with fine American cuisine at a daytime lunch, dinner by candle light, or catered event will not be forgotten at the beautiful, contemporary Bistro 70.
