    Filet and Aligot potatoes

    Another fantastic experience at Poulet Bleu! We sat at the bar, as we often do. Our servers were attentive and extremely helpful with their suggestions for food and proper libations. The restaurant is comfortable and elegant without being pretentious. I hear the upstairs bar has reopened and will need to return to explore!

    The roasted duck was 10/10 and the decor was so beautiful. We sat at the front of the restaurant and I wish would could've sat further back to see more of the restaurant. I also enjoyed the aligot a lot. The asparagus was okay and the fries were yummy. The chocolate souffle was so decadent. Overall, the service was wonderful, but I was expecting more given the hype surrounding this place.

    The ambiance was a 10/10. The patio was really cool and recommend you get out there if you could. Very nice place. The service was also very good. They were all very nice and attentive. Now to the food. This was the first time trying duck and maybe it's just not for us. I most likely would never order this again as the greasy type of meat wasn't for us. The mussels were pretty good. They're just as good as mussels anywhere else. The French onion soup was really good. Would definitely try that again. The chocolate souflee was really really good. Would come back just to have this again. Overall if i come back and get a different entree this may be a 5.

    Ambience is my favorite. We went on a busy Friday night. Highly recommend reservations a month or more in advance. The first floor is vibrant, lots of chatter, big plants, energetic vibe. Upstairs, where we sat, was cozy and quieter. Service was attentive and classy. Our server gave us some details on our choices and made great suggestions. So, I'm a cocktail girlie. I love a strong drink. The option I wanted wasnt available. No problem, I get something else. But I dont think it had a single drop of alcohol. So I was a little sad about that because it was absolutely delicious. Highly suggest ordering the French onion soup. Best I ever had? Maybe!! And I've been to Paris lol Also, get a steak!! Perfectly cooked and seasoned. I overhead a serve suggest the burger so I may get that next time. Lastly, order the chocolate souffle. Its huge but pure decadence!! Highly recommend this cute lil Parisian gem.

    We finally made it to Poulet Bleu after making a resy months in advance. Verdict is the food and service is solid. We arrived for our 7:15 resy and were seated by the corner next to the garage windows. Luckily, it was a warm March evening so it didn't feel cold. Our waiter, Dominic, was helpful with wine pairings. Food wise we ordered: - Olives: A sizable portion of black and green olives. No pit bowl was unusual - Patte: Delightful and one of the better ones I've had - Salad: Fresh with a light vinaigrette - Duck: Delightful cooked and rich. The rhubarb complements it perfectly - Lobster spaghetti: Average--nothing wowed or stood out to me here We were thinking it would be a true French experience, leisurely eating the night away. Dominic had noted the appetizers would come, followed by the salad, then the mains. However, things came out TOO fast. The salad came with the appetizers and our mains were presented to us while we were still working on our salad. My spaghetti cooled a bit while sitting there. One star off for this. Dominic did acknowledge the fast timing and comp'ed our drinks, which was a nice gesture. Not sure what happened that night. I met up with a friend who had a different experience and felt the timing of each course was perfect. Definitely worth a try.

    My wife and I say yes "Oui" to Poulet Bleu. We were excited to see this restaurant re-open. It took us a while to get a reservation, but the garden patio was worth it. Starting out, we ordered a delicious cheese plate with Brie, blue and Gouda paired with baguette slices, jam, almonds and a honeycomb. We split a bottle of red wine recommended by our server. While the name escapes me, it paired excellently with our dinner. My wife ordered the chicken (Poulet Roti) and I ordered the duck. French preparation of chicken is inspired and Poulet Bleu certainly delivered. The breast and thigh pieces were tender, juicy and herby, served with a rich truffle infused stuffing and delicious vegetable medley with more truffles. The savory duck breast was marvel of textures, from the crispness of the skin to the fatty, steak like breast meat itself, moist and delicious. The endive pairing and green olive purée provided a crunchy and salty balance to the whole experience. Finally, we ordered the chocolate soufflé for dessert. A beautifully rich, fluffy and decadent pastry served with vanilla ice crème and fruit purée, it was pure heaven. Easily could be shared between 4 people. We loved our experience here and can't wait for our next night out "uni sortie". Magnefique!

    Old fashioned l'orange and Belle of the Boulevardier

    I was meeting up with friends in Lawrenceville and stopped at Poulet Bleu for a pre-dinner drink. At 6pm on a Friday, Poulet Blue was packed. I wasn't that surprised as getting dinner reservations here is challenging. The bar is on the second floor. The first floor feels very Parisian whereas the upstairs reminds me of French Polynesia. I really liked both vibes. To drink, I had the Old Fashioned l'Orange and my husband had the Belle of the Boulevardier. Beautiful well made drinks!!! Hope to be back again soon for dinner!

    The hot spot EVERYONE is talking about & rightfully so! poulet bleu. wow. We started out with complimentary champagne celebrated a special birthday! Then ordered the Bistro Salad $14 & shareable for 2. So fresh and light. Loved the red wine vinaigrette. The FRIES. O M G. On the menu these are under "LEGUMES" and titled: Truffle Frites. $12 and so worth it + shareable again. The truffle aioli was so yum. For our dinner we both ordered the chicken! Titled Poulet Rǒti on the menu! So flavorful. The best chicken breast I've had. & of course we had to finish with the Chocolate Soufflé! Heads up, if you know you want that for dessert, give them a heads up so it comes out after your meal! 10/10 experience. I will be back in May if you'd like to make a reservation here, check them out on @opentable! That's how we booked & how I reserved my next table Find me on insta for more reviews @curatedbybri412

    French onion soup

    Delicious food and lovely ambiance. Especially the gnocchi and chocolate soufflé. Will be back!

    Cannot wait to go back for more!! Reservations can be difficult but they have bar seating if you want to try your luck. The ambiance is amazing, we sat on the covered patio in the winter and they had heaters to keep you comfortable. Every course we had was delicious. You must try the French onion soup. Our water didn't even give us the option to not end with the soufflé and there were no regrets. Excited to go back and try a different area of the restaurant to see the full remodel.

    Soufflé

    Poulet Bleu describes itself as an American bistro on the menu which is kind of funny. You know they're going for a French restaurant, but maybe that will temper the ever rare French Pittsburgh folks' expectations. We shared the cheese plate, filet mignon with frites, and the soufflé. The filet and frites were cooked perfectly, and the soufflé is a must-order. Both the entrée and dessert felt completely worth it. The cheese plate was good, but for the price, it's probably the one thing we'd skip next time. I had a Kir Royale, which was delightful and a great way to start the meal. We were seated on the enclosed front patio with the fountain, which made for a really lovely atmosphere. While nothing special was done to acknowledge my birthday, the service was attentive, friendly, and approachable throughout the evening. Overall, a great spot for a special night out if you're craving classic French flavors in a bistro setting.

    Do you guys have foue gras?

    Currently on the menu under the small plates they have paté which has foie gras.

    When is happy hour? What are the deals?

    It's 5-7 (I'm pretty sure). It's a good deal. They have various cocktail specials (they usually rotate). Always good and reasonable. The happy hour food is a smaller menu. It's always delicious. We tend to split a burger and fries and it's always…

    Avoid this restaurant. They make mistakes constantly on togo orders…read more On day one, I had ordered a bread pudding and paying for it. After waiting 30 minutes for it, they decide to come out and tell me that they are out of bread pudding. It would've been beneficial to know that prior to paying, however, they did not even offer a refund. Instead, they told me they would give me a tiramisu instead. On day two, I placed an order for a salad with a chicken skewer upcharge. Upon getting my order and opening the container, I saw that the skewer was not in there despite being charged $10 for it. The other items here at the restaurant were not good, and I do not recommend this as they don't want to make good quality food. Lobster ravioli is pretty dry and tough to chew. Tiramisu is missing that earthy coffee flavor. Chicken caprese says that it comes with fresh mozzarella, however, they only gave us small circle of cheese on one side of the sandwich (covers about 1/4 of the sandwich). Do not get the truffle fries, they are the exact same taste as the normal fries. Last, the crab and shrimp dip is highly inconsistent. The first day, it was good and actually had pieces of shrimp. The second day, zero shrimp. In the end, this restaurant has several deficiencies that they do not seem willing to resolve.
