French Restaurants near West Vancouver, BC

“Lovely place. Lovely hostess/waitress (Tania) and awesome chef (Jose). My boyfriend and I have gone twice, and twice the service and food were spectacular. Our favourites include the steak and the seafood pasta (which was a special that day). We had also had great conversations with Tania and Jose, they are funny, hospitable, and welcoming. My boyfriend and I decided to visit in the future for any type of small celebrations if we are in town.“

“Finally found some time to book St Lawrence. Heard and read may good review and the hype is real. The small interior reminds me of Montreal style bistro. We got chef counter seat and it was great to see the action and also speak with the chef and his crew who took the time to describe each dish. Plating and taste was spot on. Service was attentive. Highly recommend for any special occasions just have to book a month out in advance if you want weekend and the chef counter seating“

“Absolutely blown away by the seven course tasting menu. Surprised my boyfriend with a birthday meal here and the service was simply superb. Attentive and great pacing. Every dish was flavourful and spot on, and we loved learning more about each dish, the technique used and its history.
- bread course - so crispy and buttery. The cheese spread was amazing.
- chutoro - perfect one bite, the fish was so fresh and soft.
- baked oyster - wow, that sauce. So rich and packed with umami.
- octopus - cooked perfectly. Loved the crispy jalapeño on top.
- scallop - a perfect autumn dish. The lentil ragout was so rich and comforting and the crispy pork was a great touch.
- beef tenderloin - pleasantly surprised by the broccoli purée. I also loved the bone marrow sauce. Beef was cooked perfectly.
- sorbet - great palate cleanser. Loved the touch of grape.
- chocolate tart - so rich so beautiful. Great tart shell but with a rich gooey center.
- shortbread - wow I am obsessed. What a way to end the meal. Perfect chocolate matching the restaurants tiles, caramel center, rich buttery shortbread.

Overall amazing meal. Can’t wait to come back.“

“It's a fantastic little gem in North Vancouver. Family run, the food is exceptional and the service is friendly and helpful. Setting is a bit austere. But you go for the food and the service. Never disappoints.. the cherry gravy is outstanding.

“Highly recommend this French cuisine!!!

We were here for my birthday celebration. Every dish is beyond our expectations! The bread is warm and with creamy butter, French onion soup is a must try, the scallop is cooked to perfection and the duck leg vanished into my boyfriend’s stomach within 3 min since it’s too good! The dark chocolate lava cake is not too sweet, paired with homemade black current ice cream make it fresh!

Love the quiet and calm vibes. Service is excellent. I’ll rate it a 10/10?“

“Came here tonight for a friend’s birthday dinner & everything was incredible. Good, wine, service was all impeccable. Thank you so much for such a great time.“

“As others have stated, this restaurant is truly a hidden gem. I’ve been twice, once with 2 friends and more recently with a party of 8. The food was delicious and fresh tasting. The fixed menu at $35 for 3 courses is an excellent price for the quality and options you have to choose from. Everything was great, the service, the atmosphere and location is fantastic. The french onion soup was really a treat, as I have never been a fan before, but I cannot wait to go back for more !

Wheelchair accessibility: There was plenty of room inside the restaurant for my walker, no issues getting into the door and the washroom was definitely big enough for my walker and had handrails. Not to mention beautifully decorated and well maintained.“

“Friendly staff. Quick service. Tasty Food. Perfect breakfast spot. No wait on a Sunday late morning.“

“Pinot noir was delicious. Izadora was wonderful and attentive server. Omelet was cooked perfectly with nice seasonal vegetables.“

“Excellent French café. Unpretentious with fine dining. The tartare de boeuf, steak frîtes, french onion soup and duck confit were equal to other restaurants but half the price. More café than dining room. A bottle of Chateaubeuf du Pape and the evening is complete. We highly recommend this spot.“

“Impeccable en tous points ! De bonnes saveurs et un excellent service ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

Parking: residential street parking“

“Absolutely unmatched food and service. Probably one of the best examples of food, service and care ever received. The staff outdid themselves, going over and above the call to ensure that our visit was exceptional with personal and attentive care throughout our meal and at all levels. We are not easily awed and the food as well as the service were without question 'awesome'. The food was fantastic from start to finish with every nuance and flourish designed with thought and care to further enhance the amazing flavors being presented. Thanks to the staff, from Table to Chef, for such a wonderful experience.“

“Fondue is amazing We had an awesome dinner“

“We love the team and chef! followed them from their previous site at Fiore west 12th. Love the addition of live music Thursdays. Always great service and consistent delicious food!“

“Argo Burger topped with bacon, cheese, fried onions and egg is served alongside a mound of fries. Delicious, whether eaten hot or cold. Fried chicken burger is one of the best in town. Fish and chips came with equal amounts of both, which translates into lots. Creamy Chicken chili con queso and heaping plateful of Spicy lamb on their respective beds of rice were stick-to-your-bones good. Then there's the home-baked pie and the OMG butter tart! If you're searching for comfort food with a serving of easy hospitality, this old-school Mount Pleasant diner is where you'll find it. #EastVanLoveRules“

“I've been going to Bâtard for several years -- my favourite bakery in town and worth the 15 minute drive. Great bread & scones, pastry to die for, and wonderful atmosphere for a lunch. I'm more than a little suspicious by several coordinated reviews which trash the place, particularly as one of the reviews is by an owner of the new bakery which just moved in across the street ... hmmmm ...“

“Outstanding food, service and ambiance! Highly recommended“

“As am a regular customer of there tiffin service. The food is delicious and always a fresh and provide on time. I really appreciate their service. As they also provide diet meals I also try that. It’s really helpful in maintaining my health“

“Wonderful place to try on an impromptu getaway to Vancouver. We did the tasting menu, and loved the flavors of the miso cured sablefish especially. The roasted pear for dessert was also a highlight. The owner explained several of the dishes and the sake menu to us, and was a delight to talk to.“

“Our U9 team was in town Feb 4-5 and Deb and her team were thrilled to host us - not all restaraunts would open up 3/4 of their space to that age group. Our meal and service from start to finish was simply outstanding. Highly recommend what a gem of a restaraunt.“

“L’Atelier Patisserie is the most incredible quality French patisserie and food. It has been a privilege to be a customer since their original location and now their amazing new store on Broadway. Franck delivers world class pastries at a very reasonable price, crafted with obvious authenticity and passion.“

“Great place to learn or practice your French! I just started an intermediate course there and so far it's great. The teacher is very knowledgable, they have a library where you can pick some books to take home, they also organize different activities so people can get together and practice. The staff is super nice and helpful. I recommend you check out this place if you're looking for a francophone community in Vancouver ?“

“It’s a joy going to a French restaurant when the servers are French ! The service was great and my friend who had the mussels said they were the best she’d ever had.“

“I had a very good experience at this place . Food is great! Jenny and Tracey went out of their way not just for me but for every customer. It felt like they really knew the food as well, especially when I asked them what I should order and would it be too much food. Love this place .

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly“

“Need an authentic Croissant fix???? THIS is the place to go. Fabrice and his wife take excellent care to offer their clients the highest quality breads, croissants and sandwiches in the neighborhood. It's like your're back in France for a brief escape. We come out from Surrey to pick up fresh croissants, Chocolatines, Ham & Cheese croissants and and Epiphany must... A Galette Des Rois.“

“What a great restaurant..came across it while shopping and enjoyed the happy hour. Great food, ambience and service.“

“Great coffee and kind baristas“

“If you ever see a line out the door of this place, or if it ever since perpetually busy especially during high volume times like breakfast or lunch, just know it's for a good reason. Their circular supreme croissants are iconic, filling, and absolutely delicious and I try and make it my mission to at least grab a chestnut one whenever I'm in the area. They also offer seasonal variations like caramel pumpkin pie, or strawberry milkshake or blueberry lavender so there's always something to be had here.“
