Open seven days a week serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, the menus offer something for everyone, from its two-course prix-fixe lunch for £11.95, to its two-course prix-fixe evening menu for £14.95, and an extensive evening à la carte menu. Voice spoke to head chef Silviu to find out what’s new on the menu. Here’s what he had to say:

 V: WHAT MAKES BISTROT PIERRE ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR DINING DESTINATIONS IN NEWPORT? CURRENTLY RANKED #6 OF 365 RESTAURANTS IN NEWPORT ON TRIP ADVISOR

S: Our customers come for the great value French cooking and seasonally changing menus, as well as the relaxed atmosphere and friendly customer service. All of our dishes are freshly prepared every day and we are all passionate about quality food.

V: WHAT’S NEW ON THE MENU?

S: We look forward to launching our new spring/summer menu in late March, which includes the return of the much-loved bouillabaisse as well as new dishes that explore the French influences in cooking across the world.

V: WHAT TWO OPTIONS WOULD YOU RECOMMEND FROM THE EVENING PRIX FIXE MENU, WHERE YOU CAN GET TWOCOURSES FOR £14.95?

S: Our prix-fixe evening menu is now available from 5pm all evening on Sunday to Wednesday, which is amazing value. I would recommend ricotta and truffle ravioli in a light cream sauce with garlic to start, followed by médaillons de porc – which is tender and juicy pork with a fabulously rich and indulgent Dijon mustard beurre blanc sauce.

V: ARE YOU DOING ANYTHING SPECIAL THIS YEAR FOR VALENTINE’S DAY?

S: You can wine and dine your loved one in our warm and welcoming French bistrot which will provide a romantic backdrop for this special day. We have a special Valentine’s Day three-course evening menu and a glass of fizz for only £29.95. This is available from 5pm on Wednesday, February 14.

V: SUNDAY LUNCHES ARE ALWAYS A POPULAR TREAT AT YOUR RESTAURANT, BUT WHAT DO YOU HAVE PLANNED FOR MUM ON MOTHERING SUNDAY, MARCH 11?

S: Sundays are a great day to catch up with the family and this is one day in the year when it’s all about mum. So, we have a special three-course set menu for £19.95 available all day which offers specially selected dishes, chosen with our lovely mums in mind. Call now to secure a table for the family.
