Romantic French bistro with acclaimed farm-to-table classics
"Included among the Raleigh properties operated by Scott Crawford (Crawford Hospitality); Scott Crawford is a 2025 James Beard Foundation Outstanding Restaurateur semifinalist, and this venue is listed as part of the group underpinning that nomination." - Erin Perkins
"Chef Scott Crawford has been at the forefront of Raleigh’s fine dining scene for years, and Jolie, his take on a classic French bistro, is one of the jewels in his culinary crown. The abbreviated bistro menu has top hits like French onion soup, steak fries, and poulet roti alongside seasonally rotating dishes like a roasted delicate squash for fall or a swordfish grenobloise with roasted cauliflower. The rooftop deck is the place to be during warm nights, and the weekend brunch is incredibly popular." - Matt Lardie
"Jolie is where chef Scott Crawford’s farm-to-table cuisine takes a trip to France, all served in an intimate bistro-like interior and romantic rooftop terrace. Escargot, gnocchi Parisienne, and a classic roast chicken are some of the menu items on offer — all to be enjoyed with a superbly edited wine list and Jolie’s craft cocktails. Finish up with a chocolate tart or go true Parisian with a cheese plate." - Matt Lardie
"A 28-seat bistro dining room plus a 32-seat rooftop garden, coined Le Rooftop, make up the small, intimate space. The rooftop is a charming addition to Jolie and covered by a giant umbrella, surrounded by lavender and rosemary and will give diners a peek at the Raleigh skyline." - Jenn Rice
"A French bistro with Crawford's twist on classic cuisine and an outdoor rooftop seating area, named for his 8-year-old daughter." - Katie Toussaint
