The wine program is ambitious in both pricing and structure, with offerings from all the important French wine regions, as well as the classic big California and boutique wine houses.
Aquitaine Bistro in Dedham, located in the new Legacy Place shopping plaza, builds on the success of its sister restaurants. Inspired by Parisian neighborhood bistros, the 185-seat Aquitaine Dedham, offers an authentic French dining experience. In the summer months, weather permitting, the warm and welcoming spirit of the dining room spills out onto the seasonal outdoor patio.
