I could have sworn I reviewed this ages ago. But anyway... I revisited Pot au Feu last night to finally (after decades) try their excellent version of Pot-au-Feu. Beef, chicken, cabbage, potato, celery, carrots, onion, and broth (on the side). It is basically a peasant dish. No fancy sauces; just a mélange of meats and vegetables braised (or stewed) to a perfect consistency, to allow their natural flavors to shine. I should also mention that this venerable establishment serves French bread that is absolutely delicious: fluffy, yet substantial on the inside, with the most wonderful delicate crust I can remember having, so you must have plenty, buttered up for dipping in the broth.

Doesn 't seem the same after all these years. The bread service was not as good as I remember. The onion soup was bland and had a thick, flavorless consistency. The pate assortment was good, though rather meager for the price. Entrees were good, though some have gotten extremely pricey. At some point during Covid, they added partition of wood and windows surrounding most tables, which detracted from the ambience of the old Pot au Feu. Time for those to leave.
The service was excellent, we were greeted by the bar tender and he upgraded our table, it was very nice. The wine was excellent, but the Pate Maison as disappointing, it was cold and had a thick layer of gel on top, so it was not fresh. The main meal was Boeuf a la Bourguignon, the meat was a little dry, I think over cooked. The dessert was a mouse and it was excellent.

It must be boring to achieve excellent ratings most of the time. Unfortunately this happens because it’s true. Pot au Feu never disappoints. If you need a respite from the typical “high class” restaurants, this venue exudes traditional charm and elegance with a first rate staff and outstanding cuisine. Definitely well worth a visit!
The Pot Au Feu is many things: it is the most romantic restaurant in Providence, and the food is superb, with the onion soup, duck, and creme brulee being some of my favorites. We were greeted warmly by the owner, Bob Burke, and treated with kid gloves by the staff. We highly recommend the Pot Au Feu!
Pot au Feu continues to be one of our favorite restaurants of all time. It's just such a comforting experience from the ambiance to the spectacular food. It is an absolute must try. Bob and his team are so welcoming and attentive. Truly a unique experience.
