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 were delayed by bad weather and they held our reservation. Also enjoyed listening to French Christmas carols—took me back to my teaching days.

First off. We had a marvellous waiter, charming and friendly though my fiancée pointed out he was a bit nervous but he did a great job. The food is delectable, he quality and worth the price in my opinion. From the Escargot to the Duck Leg Confit to the Creme Brûlée. High Quality. For beverage I suggest the French 75 even though it is pricey. Yum!

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
Paris 66Responded on December 15, 2024
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.

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!

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! ❤️🇫🇷❤️
