Neighborhood gem

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!

We have enjoyed dinner at Paris 66 so decided to try their brunch. It was disappointing. I ordered an omelette, which was overcooked and not a french style omelette. My dish came out hot but my husband's eggs benedict was cold. Finally, when they brought us our bill they handed us somebody else's signed receipt from several days ago. The experience was quite odd overall and the food not good and overpriced.

I am sorry to hear a review like yours. Did you complain to your waiter and to my manager before writing this review? I will make sure I talk to our Chef about this so it never happens again.

Completely mediocre experience from the ambience, the vibe and energy (restaurant was half empty on a Saturday night), service was just ok and the food was just ok. Felt like Bistro 66 has seen its better days. And it wasn’t inexpensive…and that’s coming from a New Yorker who was there for the weekend. I wouldn’t recommend it.
Paris 66Responded on November 18, 2024
Mediocre? I don't think so! Look around you, everyone loves Paris 66. Restaurant half empty? NO. You came after the rush at 8:00 pm. We had 95 guests that evening. I don't know what you are talking about. New Yorker? Why? Do you think People from NYC are better than people from Pittsburgh? Ha, Ha! I am Parisian, how is that for you? Instead of complaining behind a computer screen, why didn't you talk to my manager that evening? If you have any complains to make, you should call me directly on my cell phone at 412.996.9113. I am waiting for you.

I've enjoyed multiple visits to Paris 66 for dinner and Sunday brunch, but last night may have been the best dining experience that I've had there so far. The pan seared lamb was absolutely magnificent, perfectly cooked and unbelievably tender; the waiter offered to get me a steak knife to cut it, but I didn't need one! The sauce chasseur was the perfect accompaniment to the meat and this was probably the most delicious lamb dish that I've ever had! Bracketed by escargots as an appetizer and crepes Versailles for dessert, this was a meal to remember! As always, my waiter was cheerful and attentive.
Paris 66Responded on November 16, 2024
Merci, merci, merci! Thank you so very much for your beautiful 5 Star Review! Your review is so wonderful that I showed it to my General Manager and my Chef, showing them that we are doing a great job and to keep pushing customer's expectation. We are the only surviving French restaurant in the City and reviews like yours are just incredible, making us proud of what we do and making us want to do better. Merci encore beaucoup! We are at your Service, Frederic Rongier, Proprietor.

Delightful brunch. Louder inside than on the outdoor patio. Our party enjoyed the French toast and the Paris 66 Omelette - which is HUGE. I cannot imagine how many eggs go into this one omelette. Our server Andrea was lovely. Definitely make a reservation and enjoy.

Most of our party enjoyed their food. Mussels were cold and without broth. Our server realized we were celebrating a birthday and brought the birthday girl a treat without being asked!
