Great vibe and atmosphere, Onion Soup and Lobster Spaghetti is amazing! If you want the chocolate souffle dessert get the order in early, it takes 40 minutes to make, we were sad to learn we couldn’t order ours in time as we didn’t know until we were ready for dessert and asked for it after our dinner that it took 40 minutes. Keep that in mind when you visit! It looked delicious from what we could see at the other tables, we will have to try it on our next visit!

This was such a memorable meal – one that I want to keep reliving over and over. As they have just re-opened, it can be quite challenging to get a reservation. Luckily, we were able to snag a spot that someone had cancelled the night before. What a beautiful space! They did such an amazing job with the renovation. The front patio area is now enclosed and all-seasons, reminiscent of a French bistro. The interior is simply stunning. We sat towards the back with a front row seat to the kitchen, where everything was running (seemingly) smoothly despite how busy it was on a Friday night. We started with drinks – a French 75 and a Turf Club martini. Next up were our apps – baguette with cultured butter, a bistro salad, and French onion soup. For our mains, I ordered the steak frites with filet mignon and bearnaise sauce while my husband went with the roasted duck. Added a side of roasted carrots. And for dessert, we had to get the soufflé. It seemed to be the most popular dish of the evening, and rightfully so. Light but indulgent, served with cherry confit, ice cream, and anglaise. Every bite was absolutely delicious and well-presented. I could go on and on, but you truly have to try it for yourself. We can’t wait to go back!

The food was so good. I have been twice. I got a filet and tried the chefs pick steak the second time. Both were great. Drinks are delicious as well as the vanilla bean crème brûlée.

Curated, exclusive, haute cuisine!

Bloomfield has had the pleasure to welcome back Poulet Bleu, a fine dining experience. Poulet bleu reopened in October and it took about 3 months for us to secure a reservation and let me tell you, it was worth the wait.

Before we talk about the food, it’s worth talking about the mood. Ambient low lighting, 3 distinct dining sections, and a cohesive Persian design offers a warm and inviting atmosphere. You have the covered patio with fountain as you walk in and elements of alfresco feel carried through to the back dinning room. The middle you’ll find an eat in bar, followed by the eat in kitchen where we had the pleasure of watching our meal prepared and the hustle of the kitchen staff. It was an experience that was comfortable and entertaining.

The menu is tailored, upscale, and so, so French. Poulet Bleu is a French restaurant that knows that has an emphasis on quality food and service. A lot of American food models French cuisine. Poulet Bleu delivers exceptional French flair!

We ordered the Escargot, Les Steak Frites (Filet Mignon), Roasted Duck, and the Chocolate Soufflé!
All were exceptional in quality, flavor profiles, and presentation. If I have to choose one? I’d go back, again, and again for the Chocolate Soufflé! I would get 3 courses of the Soufflé, the only problem is they need to be ordered in advance because they take 40 minutes to bake! Keep in mind and order at the beginning. I cannot stress enough how delicious, delicate, and divine that chocolate Soufflé was. You must try it!

The service was stellar. Our waiter (Damien) was attentive and knowledgeable. After ordering we waited no longer than 20 minutes and food was served. Damien was very quick on his toes, charming, and overly friendly. Exactly the type of service you should expect at a restaurant of such caliber.

A few considerations: The food menu could be considered on the pricier side, especially with portion sizes of the dishes. Poulet Bleu offers multiple small plate options for the price conscious. Or for those looking to try something new.

The atmosphere and food make this not just a restaurant, but an experience worth a visit/wait! Poulet Bleu is an intimate place for a special occasion that celebrates all things French. I look forward to returning with guests to impress.

We were really happy to hear that they opened back up! You for sure want to make reservations far in advance but it’s worth the wait. Order the soufflé at the beginning of your meal as it requires extra time to make.

Poulet Bleu was outstanding from start to finish. The hanger steak was perfectly cooked, the roasted chicken was incredibly flavorful, and the carrots with crème fraîche were a surprising standout. The roasted cauliflower was beautifully prepared, and the meal was topped off with an amazing soufflé that was the perfect finish. An exceptional dinner and absolutely worth a visit.

Snagged a lucky seat at the bar after a flower delivery to a neighboring restaurant and was so excited to order the lobster spaghetti I have been missing for years while Poulet Bleu was closed. It did not disappoint! The pasta and lobster were perfectly cooked and the sauce was perfectly balanced and so pleasantly aromatic. Bar service was excellent too! 10/10 recommend!

First time visit for my wife and I this Saturday and Poulet Bleu knocked it out of the park. Steaks were prepared perfectly, service was top notch and the atmosphere was relaxed, calm and so enjoyable. One of the best meals we’ve had in a while!

Avoid if you were a regular before.
I used to have great experiences here, but unfortunately, the food quality has taken a dive since the renovation. The pâté is nowhere near the original standard, and the roasted chicken was very disappointing. It’s a shame because the service is still excellent, but the kitchen just isn’t delivering any surprise no more.

We had a really nice dinner at Poulet Bleu. For the price, they need to improve both the service and flavors but this is a really nice neighborhood bistro. Cocktails were great. Orange Old Fashioned and Dirty French Martini were both amazing. Kudos
Really good wine list as well.
Bistro salad was simple and good. Hangar steak with fries was excellent. Perfectly cooked. Bernaise sauce was bland, tasted like mayonnaise. Truffle sauce for the excellent fries was also bland and tasteless. Skip it.
Chocolate souffle looked really pretty. Unfortunately it was bland, tasting slightly of milk chocolate with weirdly bland sauces. Vanilla ice cream was great. Skip the souffle.
We really liked the place but for $250 for two the quality and service should be much better. The sauces should be a highlight of a French restaurant and here they were all sub par. Next time we’ll try a burger and wine at the bar and skip the expensive stuff. Hoping they can fine tune. Lots of potential here.
