Bârlad Plateau (Romanian: Podișului Bârladului) is a geographic area in eastern Romania. It is the south central part of the Moldavian Plateau. Although occasionally has heights over 500 m (1,600 ft), it is generally sloped from north at 400 m (1,300 ft) to the south at 200 m (660 ft).

The river Bârlad and its tributaries have cut in it the northern part of the Bârlad plateau, which sometimes is called Podișul Central Moldovenesc, a term that can be easily confused with the reserved term Podișul Moldovei Centrale (in English both translate as the Central Moldavian Plateau). The northernmost hill formation (edge) is called the Iași Ridge (Romanian: Coasta Iașilor). Other parts of the Bârlad Plateau:

Tutova Hills (Romanian: Colinele Tutovei),
Fălciu Hills (Romanian: Dealurile Fălciului),
Covurlui Plateau (Romanian: Podișul Covurlui), and
Elanului Depression (Romanian: Depresiunea Elanului).
