About Pot au Feu
Old School! This is not a restaurant for self-identifying foodies, cranky Yelpsters or cry babies. We never chase the latest food fad. The salad greens don’t come with an ancestry report. Pot au Feu’s menu is the classic food of France’s villages,... More

Customer Reviews
We had a Valentine’s Eve dinner on Friday. Salad, homemade dressings and freshly baked bread were provided before dinner. My husband ordered Steak Frites with shoe string fries. I tried it and the sauce was delicious. The steak was encrusted with peppercorns which gave it a nice taste. I ordered the Beef Bourguignon. It was tender and again the sauce was thick, velvety soft and flavorful. Both dishes were excellent. We shared the crème brûlée for dessert which was the very best that we’ve ever tasted! As soon as we entered and began down the stairs into the restaurant the aroma of French food cooking was everywhere. The lighting was dim and the atmosphere was relaxed and inviting. The staff was exemplary, especially Casey our server and bartender. It was a wonderful and unique experience.
My wife & I went for a date night without the kiddos. Service was fantastic. Came in for our reservations, was greeted promptly & the host/bartender asked for a minute. They wanted to make sure we were comfortably seated because i was so tall & they separate the tables by partitions. I've never had that, & loved the attention to detail. Server was great and welcoming. Wife & I split escargot & the wild mushroom soup to start. I'd go back just for that. Escargot wasn't drowning in butter and it was wonderfully cooked. Mushroom soup was the best I've had. Apparently the chef specializes in mushrooms. We had the Cassoulet a la Maison & Boeuf a la Bourguignon. Both were prepared very well. I by know means go out of my way for french food but that was a great experience. Also it was our pr
I can’t begin to give this review fair justice. It literally feels like you’ve been transported somewhere on the outskirts of Paris. You walked down the stairs and our greeted immediately by the restaurant owner Bob Burke. He’s very welcoming, it made me feel right at home, but it is authentic, He just understands people. We sat at a beautiful little table, we’re greeted by an amazing waitress, Hillary. Both Bob and Hillary explained the menu to us, which for first-timers in French cuisine was very helpful. I had the house, special beef, and my wife had the farmers chicken. Both meals were exceptional. We ended up staying in the restaurant for about a good hour afterwards in which we made new friends at the bar, and Bob showed us the entire restaurant from the upstairs dining room to the c
We went for a birthday dinner to Pot au Feu and the experience was very disappointing. We are not foodies. We simply appreciate good, freshly prepared food. This was not to be found at this restaurant. We ordered the Escargots. We wondered where the garlic and butter was with this appetizer. This was the first disappointment on what was supposed to be a special evening. My partner had the Fruits de Mer and she was disappointed by the quality of the sea food. The codfish was dry and overcooked, as well as the shrimp. The broth did not have much flavor. My partner is an accomplished cook, she was raised on the ocean and she knows her seafood. I ordered the Pot au Feu. It came with a small amount of beef and chicken and entirely too much cabbage and potatoes. However, the large bowl of bro
Felt like I was in the woody Allen movie Midnight in Paris and was transported to another time. Lovely - delicious, warm and charming. It’s not every day where you can eat authentic French cuisine lauded by Julia Child. The owner was welcoming and kind. Coming back. My new secret spot to impress. Now if I could only find a date to take here. ;)
