Cuisine & Wine Bistro in Gilbert is the latest East Valley restaurant to be featured on Channel 8’s popular TV show ‘‘Check, Please! Arizona.’’
The wine bar and restaurant, located on the northeast corner of McQueen and Warner, will appear in the show at 7 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 18.
In each episode, three guests dine at and review three local restaurants that they have recommended to each other.
“We were very nervous but very excited during the filming of our episode,” says Mairead Buschtetz, who manages Cuisine & Wine with her husband, executive chef Fabrice Buschtetz (both pictured). “We were surprised when we were asked to participate, and obviously very honored.”
Cuisine & Wine Bistro debuted in 2015. A second location opened in south Chandler in 2016.
The Buschtetz’s three adult children and their daughter-in-law also work at the two restaurants.
“We want our guests to feel like they had dinner with family when they visit our restaurants,” Mairead Buschtetz says. “We hope the guests from ‘Check, Please! Arizona’ left with the same impression.’’
If you miss Thursday’s episode, it reruns at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 20.
