About Jolie
“After a family trip to Paris, we discovered our daughter Jolie’s natural affinity for the French language, cuisine, and general joie de vivre, and instantly wanted to bring this quintessential Parisian dining experience to our community in a way that captures her joyful spirit.”
Chef and Owner Scott Crawford
At Jolie, we’ve brought the lively and timeless French bistro to life on our little corner of downtown Raleigh, located next to our sister restaurant, Crawford & Son.
Look for classic, time-honored French dishes as well as modern adaptations from Chef Scott Crawford.
