Went here for a Friday date night! Great atmosphere, excellent service, delicious food. We had beef bourguignon, mushroom soup, French onion soup, and a side salad. It was delicious. The absolute star was that French onion soup worth going there just for that!
Added edit…we stayed for dessert and cappuccino this entire meal was wonderful.

Awesome French Bistro right in the heart of Old Town FoCo! Beautiful ambiance and very nice subtle music… the French Onion soup was fabulous, same with their coffee drinks. I was just dropping by before a movie, but will definitely be back French Dip, sreak frites and minus sells soon. Brynn is a fabulous server.

We have been eating at Philippe since they opened and it has been a 5 star experience every time! The food is some of the best in town (for both brunch and dinner) and the staff is exceptional. Rosi and Philippe pour so much love into this restaurant and it shows. Niko and I cannot say enough about it and can’t wait for more amazing meals and memories here.

Last Friday, January 16, 2026, was our second visit to Philippe, both times for our anniversary. As with our first visit, this was a 5-star experience. We had the Friday special, cassoulet de canard confit, to which we added the brie en croûte and crêpe au nutella. My wife had the kir royale, and I had a very nice malbec. Everything was cooked and served to perfection. I love that the atmosphere is casual, while the culinary standards are exceptional. We’ve got to come here more often than once a year!

First, the good points. The Beef Wellington was superb, French Onion Soup is the best I’ve ever had. Unfortunately, the service was bad in so many ways that it made me regret making reservations. I don’t mind paying over $300 for a party of six enjoying a special occasion, but it seems reasonable to expect service commensurate with the expense. I did not ask for, nor did I receive, any money or other redress for my disappointing experience. And in appreciation for the manager’s professional response when I shared my numerous concerns, I will not further disparage Philippe’s. However, I regret that I cannot recommend this restaurant for a special occasion.

Had a great experience bringing our French exchange student here. She really enjoyed it as did the rest of our group, six in all of varying ages and tastes. Chef Philippe Boutinet was incredibly gracious and engaging.

Fantastic French cuisine! The ratatouille was fresh and bursting with flavor, and the chicken was cooked to perfection—tender, juicy, and seasoned just right. The authenticity of the dishes really stands out. Highly recommend for anyone craving a true taste of France!

Awesome.
Our server was just awesome and a pleasure to be around.
Food was a fun adventure.
French onion soup with the sugar….. post-WW2 flavor is delicious.
Scallops, dried & seared correctly.
Green lentil is used for filling, and cream sauce is used for savory. Love it.
Dessert: coffee-inspired cake/chocolate.
I don’t dessert much, but this was spongy on the inside and crisp with the chocolate outside. Loved it, they nailed it.
Thanks for the fantastic time, Philippe!

My wife and I ate here for dinner on September 28, 2024.
We started with the escargot. It was amazing. Very tender and in a light garlic/butter sauce. We have had a lot of escargot all over the world and this ranked up there with some of the best.
My wife had the Boeuf Bourgignon. The meat was extremely tender and the sauce was fragrant from the red wine. Really amazing.
I had the special of the day, Duck breast on a squash puree. The duck was cooked precisely medium rare (just the way I like it). very tender and full of flavor. the Puree was amazing as well. Not overpowering, but light and very smooth.
I highly recommend this place as a wonderful date night restaurant.

Walking through the doorway, we felt like we were transported instantly into the French Mediterranean. Great menu. Something for everyone. We enjoyed the soft music while sipping on our glasses of wine. The meal was delightful.
