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 usually have a great time here. Our service was unusually slow this time. Order was placed wrong by server and brought us wrong entree and drinks French onion soup is usually wonderful and it was just OK One member in party (of 3) got the lamb and it was Luke warm. When we got our bill were charged an extra entree and cocktail. Which was noticed by us and corrected. Despite this we tipped well. Felt manager should have interacted with us. Maybe comped our drinks at least We likely won’t return for a while

    I am so sorry about your experience with us last night. I just talked to my server Nathan and he said he brought a lamb to your table instead of a salmon and he forgot to remove it from your check. Mistakes happens, unfortunately. We were understaffed last night on an extremely busy evening but there is no excuse. I would like to call you next week to offer you a gift certificate. We hope that you will come back to Paris 66. Merci et à très bientôt! ❤️🇫🇷❤️. Frederic Rongier, Proprietor.

    Great food and service as always. We had the calves liver and fillet mignon and shared the fries and Hazelnut crunch dessert. All were delicious. Our server, Nat... did a great job.
    Paris 66Responded on December 8, 2024
    Thank you so very much for your 5 Star Review. We are the last restaurant in Pittsburgh that is still offering calf liver and guests are coming from very far away to have it. We are very happy that you enjoyed everything. We are looking forward to having again very soon. Merci beaucoup et à très bientôt! ❤️🇫🇷❤️

    As always, a wonderful meal at Paris 66. My wife & I have been many times & took her aunt there last night (for the first time) for her birthday. The ambience is wonderful, it really feels like you are in a cafe in Paris. Service was attentive but not forced, food was AMAZING, and, overall, it was a wonderful experience. By far the best French restaurant in Pittsburgh and, indeed, one of the best of any restaurant of any kind in Pittsburgh. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

    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.
