Had a phenomenal meal with my husband and his friends last night. The food was out of this world and it’s definitely one of the best restaurants in Doylestown. Not sure where the low ratings are coming from. Food was spot on and the service was great. Would definitely recommend!

Slate Bleu (SB) is Doylestown's overall best restaurant in terms of quality of food and service.
Having recently (and finally!) returned to SB after a hiatus of several years due to COVID, GF and I thoroughly enjoyed a Thanksgiving Eve light meal at the bar. Bartender and server Kristin was professional, attentive, and friendly. The setting was calm and comfortable.
Our drinks -- especially the martinis -- were first-rate, thanks to Kristin's mixology skills. Our plate of top-quality PEI oysters was scrumptious. The accompanying vinegar sauce of cornichons and capers was a perfect pairing with the oysters. We also shared an apps plate of fresh seafood nibbles (cured salmon, seared tuna, etc.).
Doylestown-area peeps: Slate Bleu deserves our support and patronage. It's a gem!

The definition of lower mid range. The menu was limited, and not great. The service was slow and not great. I don't blame the server, she seemed pretty busy. Doylestown seems to be filled with people who just don't go to other towns or cities to eat. This place was expensive and barely mediocre. The steak was good, the pasta poor, oysters mediocre (and expensive), fries overdone, sardines inedible, branzino bland. It's all the pretentious crap of a french restaurant with none of the taste.

The food was excellent and the service was superb. I was very appreciative to go to a French restaurant because there are no French restaurants in our area. I had the steak and fries and it was all delicious. Would recommend this restaurant very highly. Owners even too the time to talk with us. That is always a plus in my book.

We were so disappointed because we really wanted to like this place and there were parts of our meal that were good. But the bad outweighed the good by such a large scale that it ruined most of our experience. The worst part of our experience was our server. While he tried to be somewhat pleasant, he missed the mark on everything we look for in a dining experience. It started with being able to understand him when he spoke. We all asked him several times to speak up, articulate when describing the menu and specials. The restaurant was not very loud so that was not the issue. He just mumbled so we missed most of what he was saying. He was not attentive. Did not fill water glasses, did not offer additional cocktails and our meal took 3 hours!!! And this was not a complicated multi-course experience. At the end of 3 hours our friends were visibly upset because we had an hour drive home and I had to go search for him and ask him to prepare our check. Ridiculous. So that was the service.
Everyone agreed that the food was average to below average. The highlights that were worth 4 stars were the raw PEI oysters, the special crab salad appetizer and the strawberry rhubarb panna cotta dessert. My watermelon daiquiri was excellent. So unfortunately we will not be rushing back.

Delicate culinary flavors highlight this restaurant. It's GREAT, both the service and the food are spectacular. It can even give immense competition to any Restaurant in Philadelphia.
Wonderful food, atmosphere and service is always top notch. I love that they change their menu and everything I’ve tried has always been absolutely delicious! We are repeat customers, highly recommend this French restaurant.
P.S. Their desserts are all made in house.
