French Restaurants near Glendale, CA

“I never make reviews, but I love this place so much that I want to make sure it gets the traffic it deserves. The pastries are amazing (and I have tried many places - I am French in LA struggling to find it). Lattes are on par. A must go when in Montrose.
Pastries and drinks are on the expensive side, compared to a chain like Peets and so on, but matches the quality, and I have seen more expensive for less quality.“

“Great food and excellent service“

“Great intense flavors! Salted caramel is the best but butterfingers is pretty awesome too. My six year old daughter and I polished off a dozen in two days!“

“Went there for a little date on Halloween and didn’t disappoint. I had the mushrooms and my partner the duck, both were very delicious.
I think some more classy better quality cutlery and candle holders would help the place reflect the fancy vibe they want.
There’s lots of parking space around“

“The design and layout are very nice. it feels like you are eating in the past. The restaurant is on the ground floor of a hotel. There's no parking lot and some street. Valet parking not sure of what the price is. Ordered the chilaquiles, very tasty. It's not spicy and a bit strong on lime flavor but still hits the spot. French toast is amazing, and you can ask for topping on the side. Staff is extremely friendly. Borderline closer to 5 stars, but parking and no A/C is the only limitation but very good place.“

“Amazing place!! Do yourself a favor and go! Make it“

“Lovely atmosphere and great varied menu“

“Great high quality food and service“

“This place is AMAZING! It’s completely unassuming from the exterior; but the food and the service was way beyond my expectations! I truly wish there was a French restaurant like this in San Diego; I’d eat there at least once a week!!!“

“The best French food in LA. Chef is outstanding. Staff incredible. So yourself a favor. Go.“

“$55 Three course meal select from 4 each Appetizer, main course and dessert. Great service, delicious 😋 food!“

“Had a beautiful dinner at Juliet yesterday! It’s such a charming space with a large patio and interior space. Service was excellent and they do a great job accommodating dietary restrictions. We tried the poisson cru, cauliflower, risotto, classic salad, and sea bream. All were fabulous, bursting with flavors and super well-balanced. We left the meal feeling full but not heavy and already talking about coming back soon!“

“A great place for relaxation and pleasure: pleasant atmosphere, good level of food, attentive service!!! My friends and I were very happy, we will definitely come back again!!! I recommend it to everyone!!!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“The owner is incredible. She is lovely, and more often than not is there making everything happen. The atmosphere is cozy, beautiful and delightful with limited outdoor options. There is a room in the back for a larger group, but without that its great for parties of 2-3. The soft scrambled eggs are insanely delicious. A great spot for a European feeling.“

“You have to go to l'Appart by Air Food to experience a delicious French bistrot ambiance. The ambiance outside is very friendly, covid-safe and cosy. The dishes are beyond delicious. Yesterday I had the Plat du Jour with delicious scallops and home made very tasty mash potato puree. The plate are so beautifully presented - it is a pleasure to look. The desserts were delicious as well. There is a shade that separates the table from the streets for privacy. Free parking in the corner street. Brigitte the waitress is very welcoming and the owner / chef are beyond nice. An address to discover !“

“Oh my, I almost don't want to let people know about this place, but I hope we will always have a spot.

Everything on the menu is of great quality and made with expert culinary techniques.

The wine list does not have any California wines, which is refreshing.

This was our second time, and one of many more to come. We have tried: the mussels, the vegetable stew, taboule, calamari, steak frites, chicken tagine, and the apple tarte.

Matti is great at pairing wines with the food.

Lastly, the music is great 👍.“

“Nice romantic atmosphere which you can actually hear others talk to you. Deep fried whole catfish is a spectacular dish! Great attentive service by staff.“

“Excelente food with unbelievable service“

“Beautiful and delicious Bistro with great atmosphere, amazing food and wonderful service! I am coming here every time I’m In LA and always have the best experience!!! Mussels are one of the best I’ve had in a while, prices are great and Marianne who was taking care of our table was so friendly, helpful and sweet. It was a pleasure and I highly recommend this restaurant for good food and good time:)“

“My fav. local place when visiting LA. Love the atmosphere, superb service/class, & caviar. The best🥂“

“I had a wonderful experience. I got to my reservation early, so I sat at the bar to wait for the rest of my party. I was helped immediately in ordering a drink. I chose their Tempranillo red wine. So delicious and easy to drink. I highly recommend. The bar manager greeted me to see how I was doing. He was very nice.

The decor was super cute with pretty umbrella canopies over each table. The service was excellent, our server was friendly and attentive.

Honestly everything we ate was delicious. If I HAD to choose, I’d say my favorites were the scallop appetizer and lamb entree. ? I wish I took photos, the presentation was beyond exquisite.

I would definitely go again, and I would recommend anyone and everyone to come here.“

“Delicious food in an energetic environment. The pluses: Fun riffs on classic French dishes, reimagined with a Japanese overtone; notable items - Croque Madame, Duck Frites, Decibel Martini , gentle corkage. But the negatives: The "turn this table'" approach to service, with the next dish arriving before you finish the one before (very typical of Arts District restaurants, sadly), and absurd price/quantity relationships. The $70 Duck Frites was a batch of fries, a few roasted vegetables, and three 3" strips of (admittedly delicious) boneless duck. Two quarter-sized uni toasts for $28. A couple dozen clams in a excellent broth, with toast and lobster butter (subbing for bouillabaisse and rouile) was $27. I'm not going back anytime soon, though I doubt they'll notice.“

“Bravo Chef Bruno makes fabulous food.. Excellent service 🤩“

“I recently stopped by this lovely bakery in Beverly Hills, and I have to say, it’s a hidden gem! My friend, who has been a loyal customer for years, recommended it to me, and I’m so glad she did. I visited once last year, and while I was in the area this morning, I couldn’t resist returning for their excellent coffee. The coffee alone is worth the trip, but they also have a wide selection of delicious- pastries. I’ve heard great things about their breakfast options, and their baguettes are supposed to be excellent.

The bakery offers indoor and outdoor seating, making it a cozy, relaxing spot to enjoy your meal. Free parking is available, which is a massive plus in Beverly Hills!

I highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area!“

“Great food! Great service!“

“Our favorite place to eat in the area. Not only a little piece of France, but truly delicious and authentic food. Prices are reasonable too.“

“Beyond the great quality pastries and food, Andrew was nothing but welcoming, helpful and sweet, so much so - I thought he was the owner of this place! It's so nice to experience someone who genuinely cares about the offered products and place.“

“Amazing culinary performance by Chef Gary Menes and assistants. Completely unlike (and arguably superior to) most fine dining experiences in its ambiance and focus. By foregrounding vegetables alongside the optional meat dishes, it's as though Menes is making a case that the veggies can hold their own. We were convinced!“

“Very good outdoor customer service!“

“I love Simonette. The patio is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy a cocktail and breakfast, lunch, or brunch. I’ve been there twice now and I can highly recommend the burger on the menu - the fried egg on top completes it! And the mussels in the light cream sauce are wonderful - especially with fries. A friend of mine ordered the fried Bronzino - the complete fish including the head - and she said it was delicious. There are great cocktails available and several wines and Prosecco available by the glass. The onsite valet parking is a bit steep, but there are many nearby options for parking in downtown Culver City if you don’t mind walking a few blocks.“

“The food was great. The owner is very friendly & pleasant to talk with 😄😘😘“

“Always excellent food! Try their meals to go during social distancing“

“Delicious food!! Enough portions, clean, low price, and delicious!!3 meal course includes, salad, or appetizer, main dish I ordered the chicken with the potato, dessert, bread and a drink.It is managed and served by students ao be patient. Service might not be the faster but it is delicious. Supper affordable“

“We loved this place; delish food, great location and lovely Parisian vibe!“

“Our waitress was so helpful, friendly, intuitive and just cool! The food was too good.. like... “need to eat and chill here more so we can try everything” kind of good. The atmosphere was ROMANTIC. Like, modern yet timeless romantic. I felt like I was in a French dream. Best date night place in LA. For sure.“

“Harlowe turned into a fun night out with friends for us. A bunch of us had gotten together after many years without seeing each other. This restaurant/bar/club was the perfect setting for an epic night. The drinks and the service were absolutely awesome!“

“I attended the Harvard Extended event at The Culver Hotel and had a great time!“

“Best meal we had in the States!!
Perfect balance between tastes, wonderful service, and nice chill atmosphere. We had such an amazing time and delicious food! Don't miss the burata, prosciutto fruit salad!
Very much recommended!!!“

“I had Japanese breakfast w/ miso black cod, it was tasty.“

“A wonderful classic Hollywood space, updated but true to its origins. I figured the food should be pretty good. Wrong! The food was really really excellent!!! A remarkably richly flavored duck breast, among the tenderest I’ve ever had. I had duck breast the next day at a Michelin-starred restaurant a mile or so to the south, and this was better. Yes, I like duck. Creative and beautifully prepared appetizers. Friendly and natural service.
Another well-known and excellent LA chef had this space for a while, and I’m amazed that the this new restaurant and new chef are appreciably better.“

“Wonderful atmosphere and absolutely delicious food!“

“It was a culinary experience. Food was the delicious and the ambiance was magical. The place is so pretty. However, the place is small and so it gets crowded and that makes the noise level so loud along with music. But once you get acclimated, it's doesn't bother at all. I really loved it.“

“Coffee is better than Starbucks. Variety choices of desserts was fun“

“Garson de Cafe is very Chic . Beautiful decor and fantastic customer service. I highly recommend this place to everyone.“

“We happened upon this delicious little gem, in Montrose, after viewing the immersive Van Gogh exhibit in Hollywood. Incredibly… the decor was all Van Gogh art prints! Perfectly in tun with our afternoon. The French owner is an absolute delight. We ordered a Moroccan chicken dish and beef bourguignon. The portions were very hearty and absolutely delicious. We also upgraded our dinner to include salad and a lovely blueberry tart for dessert. The entire experience was memorable! We’ll definitely be back and bringing friends!“

“Accueillant et branché. On y mange et boit très bien.“

“Incredible bakery, everything is fresh and of high quality, I really liked the French atmosphere, it represents my country well. they also opened a french restaurant, and it was really very very good, both the dishes and the deserts.“
