“Wonderful French bistro with great food“

“Great place ! Wonderful Ford“

“A great little French “bistro”. The menu is varied enough for most. I had the curry chicken salad which was perfectly flavored. Portion size was generous. My husband had a bacon panino with a suave of fresh fruit. The fruit was really fresh and ripe. We couldn’t resist dessert - they have a large display of very delectable desserts. The coffee was perfect - strong without any bitterness. Waiter was attentive without being intrusive and offered me coffee to go. I highly recommend this little gem. While we didn’t drink, the table next to us ordered several bottles of wine.“

“Wonder bistro with the best selection of breakfast/brunch and lunch entrees. Ordered the NY steak chilaquiles and the Denver omelet. Chilaquiles was delicious. The medium steak with over medium eggs made the dish very tasty. My wife loved the Denver omelet and mimosa. Fluffy eggs wrapped around fresh vegetables. The hash browns had a good balance of crunch and soft potato center. The blackberry sangria mimosa was very tasty. The place is a nice start when visiting Coronado.“

“Great all around dining experience.“

“Legitimately inedible. I hate posting this, because we were excited to be here. Cocktails were decent (solid at best), but food has been inedible or forcibly eaten as we just want to leave and don't want to ask them to remake it. The beef was cold and the potato was the worst latke I've ever eaten. The surprise guava on the creme brulee was tough and similarly inedible. Will stop at in n out for a half decent meal on the way home.“

“You can feel the chef in the sauces and the finish of each dish… a true dedication to what the first bite can do for the experience of fine dining and the cuisine… bravo“

“Gorgeous little spot! My daughter and I are an a mission to try all the crepe spots in SD and this is a favorite so far ! Quiet, peaceful spot, beautifully kept. Music was soft and completed the atmosphere. The crepes were unreal, I had the fig and goat cheese, my daughter had the almond butter and brie 🤤 They were divine! Definitely coming back to try more of the menu ✨“

“It’s Restaurant Week again, and I’d highly recommend giving this French restaurant a try. At around $65 per person, it offers great value for the experience.

From the moment you walk in, you can feel the French ambiance—the lighting, candles, décor, and overall pace are all very charming. It’s a great spot for a date or a small gathering with friends. The menu leans toward classic French cuisine, with elegant plating and refined flavors, not overly showy or pretentious.

Every dish we ordered stood out, with well-layered sauces that clearly show the chef’s attention to detail. For starters, the Rillettes de Saumon is highly recommended—it’s so good you’ll want to keep eating it. For the main course, the Confit de Canard is a must-try. This traditional dish from the Gascony region in southwestern France involves curing duck legs with salt and spices, then slowly cooking them in duck fat until the meat becomes tender and juicy. It’s considered one of the finest dishes in French cuisine, especially recommended for duck lovers.

The service was excellent as well—attentive without being intrusive, with a well-paced dining experience. Overall, it was a very enjoyable meal. Be sure to make a reservation in advance, and if possible, sit inside, as the ambiance is better than the outdoor seating.“

“Best food, drink, service and atmosphere I have experienced in a long time. Rivals Michelin restaurants.“

“Patisserie Melanie has the best pastries. They are fresh, are flaky, buttery, awesome goodness. Goes great with my coffee, perfect as a pick-me-up, or a yummy dessert. Also, I love that Patisserie Melanie offers a take and bake option for their butter crossiants. Everything is prepared for you - just take home and whenever you're ready to bake them, take out of the freezer, thaw, and follow the detailed instructions that is provided with your order. The butter crossiants are a hit with my family every time!“

“Cute place for some standard French cuisine. Large wine and pastry selection! The Benedict’s are delicious as well as the escargot! The high point is the delicious pastry’s ~ beignets, croissants, sandwiches, soups, cookies, cakes all to go!“
