"We love this place place, our first date, engagement, and wedding were here. From bacon wrapped dates to the Egan chefs choice. Paul and team are amazing!!"

"Cafe Du Jour was literally perfect for our impromptu date night. The food was absolutely incredible. We had: Pork Crostinis (out of body experience), Rolled Eggplant w/ Pesto Cream Sauce and Blueberry Croissant Bread Pudding for desert, with a bottle of white wine (byob). When you walk in, you immediately get a burst smells that could only come from a proper kitchen, akin to the French Cuisine. The buttery, garlicky, smokey aromas filled the walkway next to the kitchen, where you’ll see the cooks preparing food with flames flying and spices burning at the tip of each flame. We were the last to leave before closed- they were in no rush to make us leave. We had a chance to meet the owner, Paul, who shared his inspirations for the amazing Cafe Du Jour concept. He and the rest of his staff were friendly, accommodating.. you can tell there is a shared passion for the work that they do. If you haven’t been here. You’re missing out. Hats off to Paul and the Cafe Du Jour team! Thank you! PS- I never leave reviews. I’m for real about this one."

"Cafe Du Jour is one of the finest and memorable restaurants in Pittsburgh, offering a diverse and eclectic menu. Their dishes are fusion delicacies with herbs and spices from Middle East, Europe, Asia, and then some. From farm to table, I had a side salad with an aromatic lettuce/ herb that I've never tasted before. Portions are ample, plating is beautiful, flavors are packed with culinary travels, quality of the ingredients are outstanding, and the owner Paul is the nicest guy in town! No wonder we've been going back repeatedly with no fail. Another tidbit - every time we take our out-of-town guests to Cafe Du Jour, it too becomes their favorite!"

"Wonderful experience! A hidden gem. The backyard walled garden was intimate and romantic. All the dishes we got were delicious and so unique! The pork chop (smoked and seasoned with numerous north African spices) was something unlike we've ever had. It was an explosion of flavor. The service was more European style, not rushed and each item was brought out on its own."

"Update: June 2025. Just adding food pics. Why haven't you been here yet?? Update: Bilbo's b'day, 2023. This place slaps. If you want to LOVE food (again), come here. Absolutely delicious! Amazing food, great service, cool atmosphere. Is this a hidden gem on Carson? It shouldn't be, if so. BYOB. Prices are good but prepare to spend more than you thought, because you'll keep ordering 😋"
