Julien Gastro Bistrot
French bistro on 31 August, with a praised breakfast and long weekend hours
The French breakfast, with The Duke Breakfast or a Croque Monsieur, served with a green salad
Worth it above all for the breakfast and the atmosphere. One guest advises outright to stay with the French dishes, finding the rest of the menu expensive for what it is.
French bistro on 31 August 1989 street, open Tuesday to Sunday from 9:00, until 23:00 on weekdays and until 2:00 on Friday and Saturday, closed Monday. Breakfast is the most praised part: one detailed review describes a glass of sparkling wine offered on arrival, The Duke Breakfast and a Croque Monsieur, both served with a fresh green salad, plus good coffee and a French-inspired interior with modern touches. Other reviews mention the salmon bowl, the lemonades and a wine list considered well put together. One guest warns that it pays to choose selectively: they liked the gyros and the chicken, but found the pasta and the Caesar salad with shrimp not worth their price, and suggest going for the French dishes. Google notes outdoor seating, live music, reservations and breakfast, but marks the place as not suited to children.

“A charming French-style breakfast spot in the heart of Chișinău! We had breakfast at Julien Gastro Bistrot, and everything was simply delightful. The staff greeted us with a complimentary glass of sparkling wine, which felt like such a lovely gesture — especially since we were on vacation. Our waitress was incredibly kind and attentive, making the whole experience even more en…”
“The gyros was good, the chicken was tender. However, the pasta was unremarkable for the price point and the Caesar salad with shrimp was definitely not worth the price. The service was amazing though. I'd suggest just being more selective with what you order. Perhaps going for French food specifically is more worth it.”
“Creative and yummy, with Parisian flair and Odessa wits, a real treat for the senses and am overall fresh breath in Chishinau. Loved everything we ordered, especially the salmon bowl. Lemonades are served to perfection, the wine list is also curated very professionally, no misses there. We'll be back!”
