The food is really good in this quaint French bistro, and they don 't skimp on the liquor in the cocktails when you eventually get it. I had been so very pleased to find that a French restaurant existed in my town, I just moved into the area two years ago, so I 'm still exploring my culinary options. That said, I prefer my meal without a side of attitude.On Saturday [May 13] night, my sister and I decided to give Martel a try. We waited at the bar, and we were the only two people standing there while the others were seated and already served. The bartender Natasha did not acknowledge our presence, though she saw us. A gentleman came up to the bar, and she immediately asked him what he wanted...
I was there with a group of five and we were all very impressed with the food. My branzino was so delicious I might get it again next time. My wife loved her chicken pot pie, and our martinis were fantastic. My mother-in-law's Trout Almondine was a hit too.
Felt cozy as we walked in. Amazing escargot dish! Sauce was excellent; you can put it on anything...Lobster risotto was also good and my wife enjoyed her branzino. Our server Paul was super. Will definitely be back.
Best food in town. Great service from long term staff. Can get a little loud because it is not a large spot. I don't know where they get their fish, but I always order the fish special. Has never disappointed!

One of our favorite places to visit when we're in or passing through Fairfield. We’d even go out of our way to stop by! Looking forward to our next visit!
it was loud. some dishes were good, others weren't. I was constantly bumped into by staff while I sat and ate. I will never go there again.
We absolutely love Martel Bistro! The service is excellent, the specials are fantastic, and the atmosphere is lively and enjoyable!
This is one of my go to spots. The food is great the wine list is better than most places with hidden gems. My go to brunch spot in

The menu and service are outstanding. The beet and goat cheese salad is the best salad I've ever had.
I really wanted to like this place but its just not great.
