Rotisserie Georgette

We started with terrine of foie gras and coupled it with a superb sauterne. Absolutely the most divine foie gras which just melted in your mouth. Strongly recommend it. We each had the half chicken which was perfect and the rotisserie potatoes — don’t miss them and loved, loved the orange carrots. Believe it or not, we actually ate dessert as well! Chocolate soufflé… absolutely perfect.

Amazing service. Manager, waiter and chef took great care of my allergic son. Highly appreciated, he got to eat new dishes.
Ribs were outstanding and chicken slow cooked to perfection.

Great meal. A little pricey for what you get, but comfortable and delicious. We split a ½ chicken and 3 sides, which was perfect for two.

Pros:
— Service was great.
— Carrots were very good.
— Chicken was good. Stick with the original recipe.
Cons:
— Fries were okay.
Tips:
— Save room for desert. Recommend the chocolate soufflé and the apple tartin.

Very disappointed! Was given this recommendation by our hotel and the food was over cooked and our waiter was cold.

I got bad vibes when I arrived early tonight and sat at the bar, waiting for my husband. Bartender was nice n helpful, but was busy pouring partial bottles of wine into other partial bottles… I’m not a fan if that, especially at these prices. Meal was good, but from I’d was just not as spectacular as I think it should have been no.

Love this restaurant. I would definitely come back for the tarte tartin, it was amazing. They have obviously chicken which was also tasty as well.

Music way to loud… she is trying to have music.
Wanted Duck but NO. Had to order a
Whole one for $ 90.00. No single portions .
Menu too limited
Good Veggies Great wine list
Would not return

Great atmosphere and food. I had the Scottish smoked salmon for starters and the roasted chicken for the main course. A hidden gem in the city. The dessert was fantastic. The strawberry tart and the rhubarb pie were fresh and well made. Prices are reasonable and service was top notch. I will be back.

Good French bistro Reasturant would recommend for anyone looking for decent food and service .
However the place didn’t leave any feeling of a wish to go back. i would probably go for the desert which was excellent

We tried Rotisserie Georgette for a quiet Sunday dinner.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They obviously make a a great effort to make diners feel comfortable. The ambiance was refined, if almost stuffy — that makes sense for a restaurant bordering on the UES.
The food, however, wasn’t anything to write home about. Yes, the chicken tasted good, but it was boring. At this price point, the meal would hopefully be better something more than simply a well-​prepared chicken.

Oh yes, you just got the dreaded 3 star review.
I will say that I ordered this out so I can’t comment on the restaurant which looks fun with live music and stuff or the staff.
Delivery was pretty quick (through postmates). I ordered the half chicken with some kind of forgettable sauce that I had one taste of and just discarded… don’t even remember which.
The chicken was pretty good. Nice and crispy skin. Meat wasn’t dry and there was a garlic flavor to it reinforced by the half of a roasted garlic clove that it came with which did made for a nice sauce once all mushed up.
So yes, it was good… but it was like 35 bucks. Now don’t get me wrong… I will gladly spend 35 bucks on a half chicken but that better be some good damn chicken. That better be a chicken that doesn’t just taste really excellent, but was charming and got good grades at chicken university when it was alive…
I will dish out top notch dough for top notch food any day of the week. Rotisserie Georgette just wasn’t THAT good… it was good, but not that good. Because of the hype and because of the price I had high expectations which, sadly, made the lackluster bird, despite it having nice crispy skin and moist meat, a bit of a let down.
In the words of Marcel Proust… that chicken was aight

Kept waiting 20 minutes for reservation. Finally sat, waited another 10 minutes for waiter. Ordered the house specialty roast chicken for two. Meh. Not crispy, instead soggy skin and overcooked meat. Needed to drench in the greasy gravy they bring on the side. The carrots drenched in a sticky sugary mess.
Gnocchi were good.

We ordered whoe roasted hen for two, roasted hanger steak, roasted branzino, scottish smoke salmon and brussel sprouts. Lot of food for the three of us. Great food, quiet scene, seems like a local eatery. We walked out of there stuffed with great memories.

We went there a couple nights ago. I am not sure if she was a hostess or a waitress. She had a very cold and unfriendly disposition. Not a good sign for a restaurant.
Food was below average.
Salad G — equivalent quality to Pret (yes the lunch place).
Hanger steak — not enough flavor.
BBQ ribs — the meat wasn’t even hot. The plate itself was super hot. Maybe they should rethink their serving method.
Stuffed mushroom — served cold. is this normal?
This place is way overpriced for what it is. Money wasted — that’s how we felt. And naturally we decided not to ever go back to this place.

Very relaxing atmosphere and great service! Loved the food from appetizers to dessert. Pricey but we are definitely coming back.
Burrata with figs, smoked salmon, chicken, ice cream, café liegeois, pavlova

I visited the restaurant for my third time tonight over nearly a two year period. I often dream about the Poule De Luxe. Now that I had recently moved to the neighborhood, I was eager to become a regular. I need my chicken fix! As it turns out, consistency seems to have gone by the wayside over time but the staff is still eager to please. My vodka gimlet had little to no vodka. The bartender was told and the second one was made perfectly. My chicken was perfect… until the last piece. A large portion of the breast was undercooked. The chef was told and he sent out at Pot de Crème as an apology. The dessert was amazing but I would’ve preferred to use my calorie quota on the chicken instead. I do love this place. Perhaps it was an off night. Since I live nearby, I suppose I’ll visit one more time to find out.
Insider’s Tip: Order extra sauce for the chicken.

Favorite part of my dining experience here was their summer drink, La Piscine – sparkling rosé with a scoop of their homemade blackberry sorbet. It was the perfect drink to have on a hot summer day. The service was quite attentive and the old school classic dining room was comfortable. I liked the buratta appetizer, but the rotisserie chicken for two, «Poule de Luxe,» was just okay. The menu stated it would include a wild mushroom stuffing, but I really didn’t see much of this at all in the dish. The chicken was moist and tasty, but honestly, the chicken I’ve had from Costco is just as moist and tasty. If you like foie gras, then you will like this because it comes with two large pieces.

Have been wanting to go here ever since Faith Middleton et al raved about it on her WNPR radio show. Was not disappointed, it was an AMAZING meal. If you ever have the chance to go, GO. We bypassed the rest of the menu and headed straight for the half rotisserie chicken with herbs de Provence (there were two other sauces available, but we went for the traditional), and the rotisserie potatoes, mushrooms, pommes frites and spinach as our sides. Since there were three of us, our server took it upon himself to bring the other sauces as well so we could try them all. They were all delicious, but honestly the chicken is so flavorful, and the skin so perfect, that it needs none of them. The sides were all wonderfully flavorful and garlicky, our favorite being the rotisserie potatoes with their chicken-​fat crisped skins. BLISS.
We couldn’t leave without dessert and debated the lemon pot du crème, chocolate mini-​madeleines with salted caramel of chocolate soufflé and chocolate chaud (very adult hot chocolate). In the end, we got them all. MORE BLISS.
A great foodie experience, worth every penny. Definitely will return.

Very capable, decadent French restaurant with emphasis on meats and richer dishes.
***
Came here for dinner, Nov ’14. I foolishly came alone and ordered too much.
The restaurant Rotisserie Georgette appears to be a french restaurant, that from my guess tends to serve bistro cuisine with a heavier leaning on preparing meats. The menu is more focused on fowl, with chicken in particular. Nonetheless, the menu on the evening I visited also included guinea hen, duck, and a special dish featuring partridge. Many of the dishes from the dinner menu are large and meant to be shared among two ambitious appetites or among a larger number of more civil diners.
Dining at Rotisserie Georgette was a very good and memorable experience overall. Although I’ve enjoyed many types of French cooking, I don’t recall having a similar experience elsewhere which may be the result of the style of cooking or a measure of the chef’s preferences. I’ll get into describing the food, value, ambiance, service, and other notes. This will be a longer review with at least one update. I wrote a lot of notes which I’ll reserve for a later review to updated later.
I ordered three items for my meal.
Duck rillettes (rillettes de jour/​of the day) $ 18. (Dish rating 71%)
–Good starter, that proved to be just as decadent as the name implies.
Flavors are more buttery than anything else, although the duck gradually emerges its presence and carries through, lingering on the palate. There is a mild saltiness that compliments the duck nicely I do wish the duck had a stronger presence, but I worked overall.
— Texture is not unpredictably also buttery with small morsel of chewy duck in between. The chilled temperature, jelly on top, and crunchy toast seemed to cut down on the heaviness.
«Poule De Luxe» Whole Roast Chicken, Wild Mushroom Stuffed Breast, Seared Foie Gras, Jus. $ 36 per person, 2 person minimum, and $ 72 for my dish. (dish rating 88%)
— Portion size is huge and seems better suited for four diners.
— The entire chicken, notably the breast was wonderfully tender, and the skin crunchy but not dry.
— Flavor of the chicken was intense in that the meat had a metallic, liver like character to it that worked well along with a very nice brine. The saltiness that came with this was rich without being intense.
— The seared foie’s liver like finish was milder and blended in better than expected with the chicken, and added additional buttery richness to the chicken. It was a great condiment.
Ile Flottante. Meringue, Crème Anglaise, Caramelized Pistachios. $ 14. (dish rating 83%)
–Generally straightforward, but slightly richer, and with a generous portion size.
— I liked the additional nuttiness in flavor provided by the generous mound of chopped and candied pistachios.
— Between the thicker crème anglaise, crunchy pistachios, and hardened caramel, the textures were more aggressive and lent this interpretation of a classic dessert a more masculine character. It was very good and consistent with the character of other dishes.
— Having a black assam tea seemed to work well as an unconventional and unintentional pairing, with the spices of the tea blending into the vanilla crème in a fun and oddly enjoyable manner.
Value is good. Prices are higher, but I think its justified with the quality and effort in execution overall, and much heartier than average portion sizes. Lunch menu prices may be more budget friendly.
Service was very attentive. The staff and manager were diligent in requesting feedback and offering assistance without being overbearing. The manager was knowledgeable and enthusiastic with regards to how dishes were prepared.
I liked the ambiance. Although a tad rowdy for relaxed conversation, I didn’t find it to be a distraction. The jazz played was comfortable and set at reasonable volume. I loved the ornate décor and collection of mirrors set on the wall. The lighting is soft without being gloomy.
I recommend Rotisserie Georgette overall. However, I do think the dinner dining experience is more likely to reward groups rather than the singe diner.
