The bistro’s burgers and sandwiches offer comfort with a gourmet touch.

    Food was delicious. Dessert was amazing. My husband had the 160z cowboy ribeye with green beans and mushroom spatzle. The ribeye came with a onion caramelized bourbon glaze. He said it was good. I had the crab tenderloin with the green beans and mashed potatoes. It was delicious. For dessert he had the rum cake and I had the better than sex chocolate cake. They specialized the cake for me due to my nut allergy and it was delicious. We went for our anniversary and there was a signed note on our table saying "happy anniversary." Overall very good experience and very delicious food.

    Drove through green bay and scoured all online reviews for a delicious lunch restaurant. So glad we decided to come here! Everything was super delicious and well prepared. I had the lunch trio - the roasted tomato bisque is PERFECTION - and my husband was very happy with his Cuban panini. If we are ever back in Green Bay we would definitely return here!

    Had a wonderful dinner at Plae Bistro in Green Bay! We tried a little bit of everything, and it all came together for a really memorable meal. Starters & Sides: • Vegan Chili: Extremely well-flavored and hearty. You could serve this to a burly non-vegan guy and he’d never guess it was vegan (not that it matters — it’s just great chili!). Very filling. • Artichoke Dip: Bomb dot com. The chips were salty and perfect, and the bread bowl was tender and easy to slice — almost like making little artichoke-dip sandwiches. Loved this. • Bread Service: Honey butter was the star here. The buns could’ve been warmer, but still good overall. Salads: • Plae Signature Salad: Great portion size with a really nice mix of veggies. The mango was a fun surprise, and the wasabi dressing was something new for me — and SO good. • Apple Pear Salad: Very well-balanced flavor-wise. I’m personally not a leafy-salad person (my friend put it best: “I’m just not a leafy gal”), and I found myself wishing it was more of a chopped salad — but that’s just preference. Still, the combination of ingredients was delicious and unique. Entrees: • Lemon Basil Pasta with Chicken: Light, perfectly sauced, and overall very enjoyable. Could use just a touch more salt, but still a solid dish. • Duck: Tender, juicy, full of flavor. The only note is the skin could’ve been a bit crispier, but the potatoes that came with it were cooked beautifully with perfect texture. Dessert: We ended the night with the Better Than Sex Cake — dark chocolate, tons of Heath bar pieces, and that comforting “mom’s homemade cake” vibe. Absolutely delicious. The interior is cute, modern, and not loud at all, which made for a relaxing night out. Service was attentive and kind, and I really appreciate the number of veggie-friendly options on the menu. In total: loved it. Definitely recommend, and I’ll absolutely be back!

    Stopped for lunch with my mom. Absolutely most pleasant accommodating waitress. Atmosphere was fun and sophisticated and very nice private booths available. The food was large portions, outstanding flavor and I felt priced appropriately. We will be back! (Grilled Romaine Salad with 5 oz of Ahi Tuna shown in photo)

    Sara was a great server for dinner. The specials are always worth checking out. Lovely array of desserts. The wine list is nice. The brussels sprout bruschetta with balsamic drizzled is very popular.

    HEAVENLY! I love getting the Plae Burger since their homemade kettle chips and dip are to die for, but last night I treated myself to a rib-eye dinner topped with roasted garlic, mushrooms, and mozeralla with a side of green beans and spatzel and bread appetizer. The bread was fluffy and sweet and came with an olive oil mix, chopped olives, and zesty siracha butter. Every bite was heaven as the heat from the siracha was blended with the savory fat of the butter and oil and the olives added a hint of sour freshness. The ribeye was cooked to perfection: perfectly grilled on the outside with a pink, juicy center. The creamy mozeralla elevated the savory meat and mushrooms and the spatzel was sweet and chewy. Every bite was a fun experiment of pairing different pieces together and tasting the harmonious blend of flavors. And I can never forget about the green beans: so crisp and fresh they must have been picked from the vine moments before! For dessert I got the pumpkin cheesecake which was a smooth and rich blend of spicy pumpkin and sweet cheese. Even today, the cold leftover ribeye is flavorful and juicy and the mushrooms, spatzel and green beans reheat beautifully back to their original sweet and savory flavors. I'm no food critic, but the entire dinning experience made me feel like royalty at a 5 star, reservation-only restaurant! All this was only $65 and I was seated immediately. Plae Bistro is an affordable luxury I'll be coming back to again and again!
