Need to Enforce Dress Code
This place was great - food, service atmosphere were all fantastic. The only problem is that they have a business casual dress code, which is one of the reasons why I went here. There is even a sign outside stating this policy that is very visible. However, immediately as I walked there there was a guy in a hoodie, torn/distressed jeans at the bar. I overlooked it because he was at the bar and left pretty quickly. After being seated I noticed that two guys sitting at the table next to us, both had on tee shirts, blue jeans, one with sandals and the other with slides that he took off at the table. Certainly not business casual by any stretch of the imagination.
Be the first to ReplyInsupportable!!! Horrible.
Terrible, terrible experience. The worst treatment at a restaurant in my life. The most disgusting treatment of a wait person by a manager that I’ve ever seen, in my life. What started as a festive birthday lunch ended with an hour-long forensic investigation by the incompetent manager into why we were charged for two bottles of $450 rosé champagne when in fact, we ordered and received two far less expensive bottles and not a rosé ONE HOUR. We waited and waited and waited and waited. One friend had left his card and gone to get the car. Where he sat and waited for an hour while the incompetent and rude manager grilled the wait person and ignored the fact that we had both a cork from one of our two bottles as well as a photograph that clearly showed that the glass pictured did not have a rosé champagne in it. “I have cameras all over the place,” was his response when offered the photo. As if to imply that we’d switched out the bottles somehow. “This may save your ass,” he said to the wait person when one of us took the cork to him. He also came out of the kitchen, brandishing an empty bottle of the rosé that we hadn’t ordered, waving the bottle around like a deranged Hercule Poirot (to be clear, he was not French. The restaurant is, of course, so it seems an appropriate description.) “Your other friend left, so the three of you are going to have to pay,” he said, as if to imply that we were trying to leave without paying the bill. If we had ordered the rosé, we would have paid for it. Horrible experience. Even though the food was a good experience, this treatment overshadowed everything. That’s why this review is a 1 star across the board. I literally had heartburn for hours afterwards. He ended up removing the two bottles from our final bill entirely, but at that point, it didn’t matter. We all felt grubby and unwelcome. Happy f’ing birthday, criminals. To the ownership of this restaurant: You have a problem. This person has clearly worked there for several years, as evidenced in IG photos of staff from at least 2019. If your managers are allowed to treat staff AND clientele this way, then a pox be on your house. Never again. If you like to be treated badly by ass hats, I highly recommend this place. If you don’t, there are plenty of other excellent French restaurants in Atlanta.
Be the first to ReplyLack of service for an expensive restaurant.
I went to le bilboquet for business dinner a week+ ago. The restaurant charged me for an item that we did not get (they were out of the soup) as well as an drink order that was wrong. When I reviewed the bill the next day, I called and spoke to a financial person at the restaurant (very nice and thorough). He was going to discuss with the manager. The manager has not gotten back to me in a week plus. I called back a few days later to connect with the manager and still, nothing. I am very frustrated by this lack of service for a meal that was almost $500. Not sure why they won't do the right thing here.
Be the first to ReplySloppy Bar
Bartenders are just drink dispensers, no interaction, had to constantly ask for our wine to be poured from our bottle. Mussels were good but the sauce needed reducing as it was thin on flavour. I added butter to try and help. Bar was a mess and never bussed. Unfriendly bartenders! Used to go but would skip it now!
Be the first to ReplyA classy restaurant with delicious food. Black folks LIKE to dress to impress.
Dress code enforcement. Thank God. A satisfied Black customer. We celebrate our birthdays with a dinner at Le Bilboquet because the customer service make us feel special and the food is excellent.

Just finished dining at this restaurant with my wife and daughter. My wife and I had been here many times before but my six-year-old and 9 year old had never had this experience. The food was good, and we felt the service was even better. Highlights included the top-shelf old-fashioned, the champagne recommended by our waitress, my wife's fish, my daughter's entrees (spaghetti and salmon) and the Foie gras terrine. Shout out to Catherine, our server who bent over backwards to make sure my daughter's enjoyed their dining experience. Yeah, we'll be coming back.

Stopped in Saturday afternoon for drinks and had a blast. They had a live DJ (Just James) which made the whole experience that much better. Beautiful restaurant, lots of natural light and great music all around highly recommended 👌🏼

Be the first to ReplyBright and flavorful
Nice atmosphere with lots of natural lighting. Service was friendly and prompt, refilling water and cleaning the tablecloth with those little brushes in between courses. The food was delicious. I went for Sunday brunch and everything from the cocktails to the dessert was bright and flavorful. I highly recommend the rose sangria, it was served with lots of fresh fruit mixed in. The beet salad was beautifully presented. I don't know what it is but they have the best french fries! Better than Paris! End the meal with a sinfully rich creme brulee. There are plenty of high end shops in walking distance to make this a perfect girls afternoon. The food and ambiance is 5 star. I had to give 4 stars for the bathroom which unfortunately needed a lot of attention.
Be the first to ReplyOverly effected French effort that misses the mark...
Not sure if we'll be giving this a second try or not. Some of the food items were good but others were bad. The cocktail menu is a joke. In an attempt to be creative, none of the traditional cocktails are offered and the ones that are miss the mark. The portions are ridiculously small and avoid the veal dish, its overly salty and visually unappealing. Their attempt at haute cuisine is laughable; to wit, smoke salmon served with guacamole amongst other ill fated attempts. The only thing I found that was truly French was the surly attitude of the staff. Also, don't plan on having any type of intimate table conversation, the "background music" is evidently to entertain the staff as its way too loud for table conversation, be it indoors or out.
Be the first to ReplyDiscriminatory Restaurant
Well dress man was turned away during lunch when there was at least 10 occupied tables. The reason given was the man did not have reservations. The hostess stepped away for a few minutes and came back saying his attire was not at the restaurants standard. When I looked across the room people were in there with t-shirts and shorts. From the moment I saw the hostess interaction I knew this was more about race than dress code. Seeing the other men only confirmed it. Certain people should be afraid to get here.

First and last time we will ever eat there. A waitress from another table charged our credit card almost $500 for someone else’s meal and then they charged our card for our meal. The restaurant had no plans to tell us this, we fortunately got a text from our bank letting us know. When we brought it up to the manager, he told us it would be 5-8 business days til the money would be back on our card. The manager proceeded to yell at us for 5 minutes like it was our mistake. They offered zero solutions and acted as if we were the problem. Ruined our entire meal and evening out. The manager was the rudest person I have ever spoken to in my life. I had heard the rumors about service here as I assume most people from Atlanta have… unfortunately the rumors are true and far worse once you’re actually inside.

Great menu, service and bar. Old Cuban to start at bar and Icelandic cod with a duck liver starter. Highly recommended.
Be the first to ReplyDelightful birthday with family
Delightful birthday dinner with family. We had an assortment of appetizers, mains and deserts. The Icelandic Cod was perfect. The tartar was good, but felt too many add ins rather just let the protein speak for itself. Service was attentive and professional. The front bar has a a really nice cocktail menu… I recommend the Old Cuban.
Be the first to ReplyRude hostess ad incompetent manager
We are native Atlantans and have been to Bilboquet many times. But when we went for pick up, the young hostess looked me and my daughter up and down (we were in tennis clothes hence the PICK UP order) and then acted like it was our fault they had not even begun the order. She was rude and condescending. And when we finally got the order, they had only given us half the normal portions for the Cajun chicken. So after a $150 lunch, we were still hungry. And we aren’t big eaters. The manager was supposed to call me back but he never did. And he also never returned my email.
Be the first to ReplyMy #1 restaurant recommendation is ALWAYS Le Bilboquet!
As an Atlanta native, I have tons of friends traveling to this amazing city for vacations, conferences, sporting events, festivals and everything else that Atlanta has to offer. My #1 restaurant recommendation is ALWAYS Le Bilboquet! It is also a local favorite. They are known for their Cajun Chicken & Frites that are out of this world. Absolute best French fries I have ever had. Their Mussels, Salmon and Steak are also fab but their Lobster with Linguine is my favorite! For appetizers they have an amazing Tuna Tartare and I love the Goat Cheese Salad. The ambience is perfect, very high end, luxury feel inside and if the weather is nice their patio is perfect to sip some wine and people/car watch. They have Champagne Saturday's with a DJ in the afternoon and serve delicious Brunch on Sunday. Service and staff are so kind, professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Le Bilboquet Atlanta for locals and tourists alike!

10 out of 10 and shout out for our waiter Wick Dropik who stayed later so we could enjoy a post dinner drink outside on their lovely terrace. His service and kindness is appreciated … thank you Wick for being such a professional!!!
Be the first to ReplyGreat waiter!
We had a wonderful dinner at Le Bilboquet the other evening and as usual the food and atmosphere was delightful but what really prompted me to write this review was because of the outstanding service from Wick Dropik. He was accommodating, pleasant disposition, knowledgeable, and appropriately attentive. I will go back there again and ask to be seated at his table!! Bravo and well done.

Might be a good restaurant...if you're white
I was prepared to give this a 5 star rating, based on the 1sthour of our time at Le Bilboquet. It was this past Saturday and the weather was perfect. My boyfriend and I decided to go out for a drink and enjoy the beautiful weather and ended up at Le Bilboquet. It was our first time there and we didn't do any research about the restaurant, but it looked cute. When we arrived, we entered through the door closest to the parking garage. We ended up walking through the restaurant and made our way to the hostess stand. We asked for an outdoor table, but the hostess told us that there weren't any outdoor tables at the time, but if we wanted, we could have a drink at the bar and she'd get us when a table became available. So, that's what we did. We sat at the bar and my BF ordered a blackberry mule and I had a glass of rose. The bartenders were so friendly and were able to answer the questions we had.
Approximately 45-50 mins later, the hostess came by and asked if we still wanted to sit outside, we said yes. So we closed out our tab at the bar and went to the hostess stand. Someone walked us outside to our table. As soon as we were seated, I could see 2 men approach our table. One was the waiter and I have no idea who the other man was. I was facing them and could see that the 2nd man was looking at my boyfriend's shirt (my BF was wearing an Everton soccer jersey) and my shoes (flip flops, but nice ones) and he looked like he was pissed off that we were seated. They approached our table and the 2nd guy started telling us that they had a dress code policy and that we were in violation of that. Before we could even process what this guy was saying and respond, the waiter interrupted him and said that because we had already been served inside that there was nothing they could do. The 2nd guy was not happy at that and huffed off. The waiter then took our order and we thought that was the end of it. But, regardless the whole situation was super bizarre. The 2nd guy came back to our table about 5-10 mins later and said that he was sorry (didn't seem like he really was) but he needed us to leave or we could go to one of the stores and my boyfriend could buy a shirt that wasn't "athletic wear". We said absolutely not and that this was ridiculous and that we would leave but we were not going to pay for the food and drinks we just ordered.
I have no problem with restaurants having a dress code policy. What I have a problem with is the inconsistency from this restaurant. Had we been told this from the start, we would not have had an issue and would've left...no big deal. What I have a problem with is that we were in the restaurant for close to an hour, served drinks, talked to the 2 bartenders, had many restaurant employees see what we were wearing and not one person said anything. The only person that seemed to have a problem was the 2nd guy who was monitoring the outdoor area.
Look, the restaurant is cute. The drinks seem to be fun (I had a glass of rose), the wait staff and bartenders seem like they know what they're doing. I can't speak to the quality of food because we didn't have a chance. But, the way they (mainly the 1 guy whose only job is judging people and their attire) treat customers is not acceptable to me. It's even more odd during this time with what COVID has done to the restaurant industry. I feel bad because the waiter lost out on a table/tip due to nothing he had done. We ended up going to another bar/restaurant around the corner and when we walked past Le Bilboquet and hour later to go back to our car, the whole outdoor area was empty. In this day and age, Le Bilboquet's dress code policy is outdated and seem to be targeted towards a specific type of clientele. After that interaction, I did a thorough look around me and all I can say is that if you end up going there, just look at how white washed the restaurant it. In Atlanta, this is the whitest (clientele) restaurant I've ever been to.
TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE
We have dined at Le bilboquet many times & love the food. On July 25th, my family and I (2 adults; 3 kids) tried calling to make an appointment for brunch, but no one picked up, so we showed up there at 10.50am-10’minutes before they opened. They refused to sit us saying they were fully booked and had over 160 reservations for the day.
We left and dined at Southern Gentleman. And as we were leaving 1 hour after we noticed 95% of the outdoor tables were empty. There were only 2 tables occupied out of about 15 or more tables. I stepped inside to talk to the receptionist & she said they thought people would show up, but they did not. Really?? You lost 5 clients who showed up right before you were open & you could not accommodate them; including 7 and 9 year old boysAnd by the way, 80% of the indoor tables were also empty!!!
Le Bilboquet management, I think you need to rethink the way you deal with your reservations. This constitutes poor management & appalling customer service!!!
