Our Story

WE ARE GAIL AND JEFF BACK, HUSBAND AND WIFE TEAM. WE OPENED THE ORIGINAL BACK BISTRO IN 2008, JUST 875 SQUARE FEET OF HOPES AND DREAMS. LOCATED IN THE RALEY’S SHOPPING CENTER AT BLUE RAVINE ROAD – A WELL-HIDDEN GEM. THERE WERE THREE SERVERS, WE ACCOUNTED FOR TWO OF THE THREE.

TEN YEARS THERE WENT BY IN A FLASH. OUR BUSINESS GREW FROM A WINE BAR SERVING SMALL PLATES TO A FULL-SERVICE RESTAURANT WITH CRAFT COCKTAILS AND ELEVATED CUISINE. WE EXPANDED OUR KITCHEN, HIRED GREAT PEOPLE AND MET THE MOST AMAZING CUSTOMERS. FROM BIRTHDAY PARTIES, TO MARRIAGE PROPOSALS, IT’S BEEN WONDERFUL BEING PART OF THE STORIES OF PEOPLE’S LIVES. WE ARE TREMENDOUSLY THANKFUL FOR THIS COMMUNITY'S SUPPORT.

IN 2018, WE JUMPED AT THE CHANCE TO MOVE TO THE PALLADIO. WE WERE INVOLVED IN EVERY DECISION; SKETCHING THE LARGE BAR, LAYING OUT KITCHEN EQUIPMENT AND SELECTING THE ORGANICALLY METALLIC LIGHTING FIXTURES.

SINCE RELOCATING, WE’VE BEEN FOCUSED ON PROVIDING HUMBLE HOSPITALITY, STYLISH AMBIANCE, MOUTH-WATERING DISHES, DIVERSE WINE LISTS AND DELIGHTFULLY ORIGINAL COCKTAILS.

COVID – 19 HAS CHALLENGED US BEYOND BELIEF BUT WE’VE ALWAYS MET CHALLENGES HEAD-ON. WE INNOVATED, PARTLY THROUGH CREATIVITY AND PARTLY THROUGH DESPERATION, EMBRACED NEW TECHNOLOGY AND STRAIGHT-UP MADE LEMONADE OUT OF LEMONS. WE STILL WORK TOGETHER DAILY. WE LIKE TO THINK WE GET EXTRA CREDIT FOR STAYING HAPPILY MARRIED THROUGH IT ALL.

THANK YOU FOR BEING THE BEST PART OF BACK.
