This meal was by far the best meal I’ve had in years. The three course meal was paced very well. Time between courses with time to savor and relax. Hayley, our waitress was very good, did not hurry anything and was soft spoken. The venture was a large part of the experience. The tree top pod with equipped with heaters to cut the chill; soft instrumental music at the right tone set the scene. The beautifully appointed area added to them remarkable experience. I ordered the chicken and was disappointed when it was gone. An all out memorable time which I will remember for many years. My thanks to the staff and chef.

What can I say? I took my wife here to celebrate our 2nd anniversary. The food was excellent. The al pastor tacos were amazing. The filet mignon was juicy and delicious. The crème brûlée was sweet and creamy. The view is amazing at night. While it was pricey, it was worth every penny. My only mistake was not realizing there was a “dress code”; I did see people in fancy outfits. But my wife and I were in jeans and button-ups. I wasn’t called out for it or denied service, but it’s something to be aware of. However, this place is a great location for special events, and the food is top-tier.

Beautiful experience at Poulet Blu for a date night. Our server was very accommodating with our wine selection for the dinner to the cocktails and appetizers. The first Monday night service since the reopening was a successful one as the restaurant typically is not open. The atmosphere was perfect, ambiance was pleasant and not loud. The smell of fresh truffles filled the air and our dinners were delicious. I had the trout almandine and he had the duck. For apps we had the escargot, tartare and baguette service. The wine was a superior Bordeaux blend. Perfect start before for the dinner we had crafted cocktails; Boulevarde and French 75 w/cognac. Great experience and can’t wait to go back again!

We went for the first time this week to celebrate both my and one of my best friend’s 70th birthday. The food was delicious, the ambience was very nice and quiet so we could talk amongst ourselves and the service was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Two of us had the Chilean sea bass, my husband had the chicken parm special and our other friend had the chicken Marsala. The fall salad was delicious as was the soup. The focaccia bread was fantastic. The only (tiny) thing I was slightly disappointed in was, even though there was a happy birthday sign on our table, I felt my friend and I should have been offered a complimentary dessert after the amount of money we spent. Not that I needed a free dessert, but it would have felt more like our patronage was appreciated and valued

This is old school fine dining at it’s absolute best. From the moment you walk in they greet you and know exactly what occasion you are celebrating. Brian, our waiter was an expert at the menu, knowing the right angle for you to stand while taking your picture, to being approachable and knowledgable about fine dining without being bougie! The food was absolutely amazing, cooked perfectly, nice size proportions, and expertly cooked. The experience is only made more perfect by the view!

About the restaurant

Enter Paris 66 and you will immediately feel transported to a French Bistro down to the last detail. This upscale, award-winning haven is not only a "family affair" – exclusively owned & operated with love by doting duo Frederic and Lori Rongier – but it is also that rare combination of worlds - intimate and inviting, yet appropriate for both special occasions & casual get-togethers. We bring a menu of everyday French culinary classics by offering up the perfect marriage of local/organic sensibilities with French influences & techniques. A superb wine list invites and ensures you to find the most perfect wine to pair with the delicious flavors created in the open kitchen. Sip our signature cocktail from the sidewalk terrace in the warmer months or enjoy our perennially popular heated patio in the rear. And of course, no visit is complete without a taste of one of the artistically masterful and masterfully artistic delectable creations of Master Pastry Chef David Piquard. Bon Appétit!
