Had a great time here celebrating a birthday! The outside is totally unassuming; you wouldn’t expect the most delicious food to be inside.
I thought I read a review that said the apps were small…oh no. The gnocchi was a very good portion for an app, and so were all the others!

My entree was the duo of beef. AMAZING. Everything perfectly done. Oh and I had to try my aunt’s chicken dish with the truffle orzo…so good. Everyone at the table loved their entree, from the scallops to the duck, and the chicken.

The dessert somehow almost trumped the dinner, that’s how good it was. I got the caramel ice cream stuffed profiteroles and went to heaven. The chocolate pots de creme, also outstanding and the cobbler was a big hit.

We loved that it was BYOB, and a small, inviting atmosphere inside. Everyone was so impressed and can’t wait to come back for another special occasion!

I didn’t know anything about the restaurant. I was tired and hungry, driving from Lawrenceville to Princeton. I saw a few cars pull in the lot, so I pulled over and quickly checked out the menu. Intrigued, I walked in. On the wall they had a NY Times review. The homemade gnocchi was delicious as well as the beef duo. The staff was super friendly. I would have ordered dessert, but I was stuffed! Stopping there was the best decision I made that day. I will definitely go back. I highly recommend eating here.

Feb 2024 – Another great dinner here. House-made gnocchi with Jersey tomatoes, cream, white wine, and grana padano was delicious. The Duck Confit Strudel and Baby Arugula salad appetizers were equally wonderful. Dinner was pan seared Day Boat Scallops, perfectly prepared and a Flat Iron Steak with roasted potato’s, onions, mushroom, and blue cheese and shallot sauce …. spectacular! And even though there was no room for desert – we had the Profiteroles with Caramel Sea Salt and hot fudge …. you’ll find a way to make them fit in! Again, busy on a Wednesday night – Make reservations!

Dec 2023 — Great dinner here with two friends. Appetizers were delicious and good portions. The main dishes were the same. Though I had Horseradish Crusted Salmon, perfectly prepared, one of my friends shared a piece of his Hanger Steak which was superb. Dessert was definitely not needed but that didn’t stop us from sharing one that topped off a great dining experience. Only distraction was the noise level being a bit high but it was a Friday night and every seat was occupied … For good reason! BYOB.

From the beginning to the end, we had an amazing experience at the Blue Bottle. We went as a large party (14 people) and had a lot of questions but our waiter David and the owner Rory handled us seamlessly with kindness and patience. They were super friendly and funny. The food was also amazing. You could tell it was all fresh and made with exceptional ingredients. Would definitely recommend this place!

This place was so good. We dined outside and the service was relaxed and personable. The setting is actually a quiet, residential neighborhood. The food was phenomenal from appetizer to dessert. Its byob and they provide the stemware and ice. The only drawback was that the seating at our table had wooden benches without cushions, so… at any rate, we’ll be back.

The food was phenomenal. The menu is small. It is bring your own bottle. Everything is super fresh, so be prepared, it takes awhile for the food to come out. Make a reservation!
