Two of us went for lunch today. We had a great experience. The food was delicious and the people very nice and attentive. The atmosphere is also very calming and the outdoor area is lovely. I also had a chance to meet Bertrand! We will definitely be going back, and often.
Awesome lunch what a cute new place
This restaurant was everything and more. Me and my mom have been looking for a good French restaurant for a while and stumbled upon this restaurant searching google. The food was amazing, we had the French onion soup and it was delicious, next we chose escargot for our appetizer and to say it was anything short of delicious would be an understatement, I had the half rack of lamb and she had the beef with potatoes and it was so soft and tasty, and for dessert she had the French cream cake and I had the key lime cake oh my god was it so good. The ice tea was fresh and the coffee was freshly brewed. I had to make another dinner reservation for the end of the month because the food was that good.
Came for my mother in laws birthday dinner and had such a lovely dining experience. Food was insanely good. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. We’re already planning going back. French country food. Pork chop was moist and delicious. The scallops were like butter- soft and warm. The chicken was tender and huge. Great atmosphere and great food!

Consistency in flavor and service are gustatory properties🤩🤩🤩 of this FOODIE’S GEM OF AUTHENTIC FRENCH, which is extremely a rarity in this town.
The proprietor Chef Bucci is certified member the Confrérie de la Chaine des Rôtisseurs 👏👏👏, a commendation to his culinary expertise.
Tucked away from the bustle of central Pittsburgh, this very unassuming FRENCH FINE DINING is truly outstanding😎😎😎. It does exude a nostalgic Parisienne feeling with its interior decor.
— We are pleased to recognize one of the artistic photos 👏👏👏 depicts a location a prior gustatory delight still in business today.
The menu is short sweet and is tried and tested. The prices are very reasonably affordable. The rather generous servings give a homey enjoyment of very Fine French fares.
The BYOW concept is a terrific idea. One can bring a very fine claret of one’s choosing without breaking one’s wallet…. We brought a Corbières Boutenac.🍷🍷🍷
We had a grand dinner with starters of Pate de Foie and Saumon then sumptuous fares of Longe d’ Agneau and Steak Frites.🤩🤩🤩

A FOODIE’S GEM: DELIGHTFUL AUTHENTIC FRENCH RESTAURANT 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷. It’s a lovely restaurant with an ambience of a 50’s restaurant set in the Riviera, the piped in Chansons 🎼🎼enhances the feel.
The menu is short and sweet, the listing looks country French😎😎😎. It brings back fond memories of restaurants in Provence and Laguendoc.
The Escargot baked in the shell is superb. Contrast that with the chilled Saumon stack with crème fraise. They’re a savory combination that’s truly refined French.🤩🤩🤩
Filet mignon aux champignon is superb. Perfect med-rare, with silken demi glaze and mushrooms on flavorful potato purée! 👏👏👏.
It truly is a terrific French dining. It’s BYOB, and the whole dinner went so well with a Chateau Armagnac, a lucky pick from my collection 🙃🙃🙃.
Service is excellent and a rather engaging chat with the proprietor Messr Bucci made the evening. 😎😎😎 Another visit is forthcoming😃😃😃

Lovely French restaurant tucked away in a shaded courtyard of mostly empty storefronts. The head chef, not knowing we were there for a reservation, cheerfully greeted us anyway before we began to approach. He's a good guy, and the server was nice.
We ordered some pate which was delicious and served with garlic bread crostini. The escargot were tasty. For the meal, I had the rack of lamb with sweet potato mash which was cooked perfectly and a joy to eat. The lamb t-bones, the beef bourguignon, and the steak frites were also delicious.
Bertrand's is true class. Not only are the owner & his dog wonderful to talk to and be around. But the staff are extremely outgoing & courteous. The highlight of evening was when the chef came out of to the table and talk to us about why and how he prepares certain menu items.
Can't wait to come back.

I had the pleasure of dining at Bertrand tonight. It's located on Cochran Rd in Scott Township and folks if you haven't been, you've GOT to go.
The experience was easily top 5 of all time. The food was impressive, the setting was incredible, and the service was impeccable.
It's the most adorable little gem of a French eatery. It's upscale without being intimidating. It's decorated beautifully while still being modest. And it's intimate.
I ordered the Steak au Poivre and asked that it be cooked blue rare which they accommodated with to perfection.
For dessert was a shot of Espresso and a French style cheesecake which is just as flavorful as a traditional cheesecake, but not nearly as dense. It's served over a berry compote that will bring a tear to your eye.
The best part of this experience, though, what getting the opportunity to speak to the owner, Lou, about his life.
He's a fascinating person who really seems to enjoy what he does and is excited to welcome people into his space as though it were his living room. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
10/10 would recommend.
I travel for business often, so it is so nice when I find a place like this! The owner was very gracious as were all the staff. The food was extraordinary, traditional French cuisine and prepared to perfection. I will definatly be back next time I am in the area!
The ambiance was wonderful, the service was excellent and my entree (duck a l'orange) was to die for. Potatoes were a bit dry so if I could I would make it 4.98 stars but everything else was perfect. This place is a hidden gem in an otherwise non-descript location. Highly recommend!
This is the best restaurant I have ever been to. I've been there multiple times, and every time I go there, it is a pleasure. I tried escargot here for the first time as well as duck. The carnard à l'orange is absolutely delicious. The escargot is amazing. The salmon and the filet mignon are amazing. The staff and the owner are all nice. The French music playing in the background is great as well as the pictures of Paris.
Lovely dining experience. Had the salade de Niçoise, pomme frites, and the chocolat pot de creme for dessert. I asked for the tuna to be a little more well-done because that is my preference. It was delicious. The pomme frites were just okay (I would skip these next time). The pot de creme was a little bowl of ganache. Just enough sweet to end the meal. The owner chatted with us and it was a lovely experience. I can't wait for the outside to be ready for summer. Also looking forward to trying them out for lunch (after May 1).
