“This place was just what I was looking for. Love the French decor and ambiance! The Spanish guitar was incredible and really made my night. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening. Love the outdoor patio especially on a warm night. We had a waiter that was friendly and conversational. Was so sad to know this place is closing. Was my first experience here, and I would have come back and referred others. Wonderful place that LA needs more of“

“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.“

“Love the dishes. House made pasta. Mussels Steamer. Beet salad. Escargots. Ham and sunny egg crepe. Bread with butter and olive oil. Blueberry cheese cake.
We also came back for coffee. It's a nice place with nice hosts.
I guess the only thing can be better is that bread could be on the house. It's a lunch time though. I would expect the dinner comes with bread.“

“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 !“

“11/10 experience at Juliet! The food was absolutely perfect and staff was lovely! Our server, Hannah was instrumental in helping me pick the right wine. The food was beautifully prepared and the atmosphere was perfect for date night. Highly recommend!“

“Loupiotte Kitchen was a dreamy French cafe. Their creamy polenta was rich and comforting. The brioche French toast, topped with citrus, berries, and cream was pure joy. The soft French music also added to the cozy vibe. Definitely a must for anyone who loves breakfast done with elegance and heart.“

“Great service, fantastic food and presentation. Great live music. Was a great experience!“

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

“Absolutely loved Chez Mia, came here for a girls night and had the best time. The vibes were great — warm, welcoming, and full of energy. The food was delicious— every dish was flavorful and beautifully presented. The staff were so attentive and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed. You can tell they care about creating a great experience for their guests. Highly recommend this spot — can’t wait to come back!“

“I’ve been to Zizou five times in just two months, and I absolutely love it. Walking in feels like coming home, like being on the docks in the south of France, maybe Marseille. Maati and Boris, the founders, have created a space that feels like an oasis.

Their partnership is the perfect blend: Maati, an architect by training, and Boris, a sommelier and sound designer, met in Lyon, France, during their youth. Together, they’ve designed and built everything inside and out, blending Moroccan and French influences to create an incredible atmosphere.

The food is fantastic, everything from the Moroccan salad to the mussels marinières is delicious. Their menu beautifully fuses North African and French flavors. Plus, they offer great wines, including a Sicilian white in a 1-liter bottle that’s mineral and incredible.

Music plays a big role here too, adding to the vibrant, relaxed vibe. Maati and Boris really care about the community, hosting events and creating a space where you don’t feel rushed.

All this comes at very reasonable prices, making Zizou a must-visit in LA. It’s a fantastic spot, and I never get tired of going back.

Merci pour le voyage!“

“Excelente food with unbelievable service“

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

“Chef Gary Menes works a miracle in his three person kitchen where you sit at the counter and watch the meal evolve. Be aware that there is an only one seating at the counter and that all diners your evening must be present to begin the meal. The restaurant only seats 11 max per night and is located in the historic Hotel Normandie in K-town. Each course is beautifully plated and although all gourmet vegetarian inspired, the beef substitution was amazing. The wine pairings with each course inspired. Amazing, memorable meal!“

“Great food! Great service!“

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

“Since they have introduced VEGAN soups, the delite of this has brought in many others besideS myself MORE OFTEN! They started a few weeks ago with a potato porage type soup which was so delicious, we had hard time not ordering more...the second vegan soup was one with garbanzo beans with other really delicious quality CONTENTS & taste. "PLEASE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK"...Great Now!!!!“

“Everything about this place was on point from the food, waitstaff, and ambiance. I'm so glad to have been able to experience such an amazing restaurant. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a date night with excellent food. I'm still thinking about their Croque Madame of Ham Katsu.“

“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.“

“Very good outdoor customer service!“

“The ambiance at Mes Amis is a beautiful blend of sophistication and intimacy. The dimly lit dining room, adorned with vintage French posters, offers a romantic setting for couples. The soft murmur of conversation and clinking of glasses create an atmosphere of conviviality.“

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

“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.“

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

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

“Incredible restaurant! Loved the ambience, food, and service! My husband and I split the Shirley salad and I ordered the King salmon. So yummy! Love the Roosevelt Hotel! We took the subway from Universal so we wouldn't have to deal with parking. Perfect choice. Then saw Herb Alpert at the Dolby. Perfect dinner spot for Dolby- right across the street!! You must go here. You won't regret it!!“

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

“This place is a real gem. The bruschetta was absolutely incredible. The scratch-made pasta was delicious, and they have arguably the best tiramisu I've ever had. The service was friendly and relaxed, making it a great spot for any occasion. If you're craving tasty Italian food, this place is definitely worth checking out.“

“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!“

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

“My wife and I were mesmerized by their patio. Great hidden spot in West Hollywood! It was our first time going there and definitely won't be the last. The Cous Cous Royale was delicious and my wife loved her Black truffle risotto. The wine was superb as well and restaurant was very accommodating to my wife's Celiac Disease. Highly recommend!“

“Food was good but management was bad. Had a 6:30 reservation on a Saturday night and didn't get sat until a little after 7. Massive line outside the door - all who had reservations. Maitre'd did not have control of the situation and clearly restaurant had overbooked or management doing a lousy job of anticipating people sitting on their checks. Either way - unacceptable to have to wait a half hour after the reservation time to get seated.“

“ADDISON WAS THE BEST PART! His energy and attention to detail really made our experience worth while! If you go, ask for him ☺️“

“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.“

“Everything so delicious, and owners so nice“

“This was my second visit to Entre Nous French Bistro, and it absolutely confirmed what I felt the first time—this place is a hidden gem. We came yesterday to celebrate my sister’s birthday, and everything about the evening was simply perfect.

We were a party of five and shared a variety of dishes that showcased the kitchen’s finesse and authenticity. We started with the Daily Pick Oysters, which were impeccably fresh and beautifully presented. The Tartare de Saumon was bright and delicate, and the Escargots de Bourgogne were everything you’d hope for—garlicky, buttery, and so satisfying. The Homemade Duck Pâté was another standout—rich, rustic, and perfectly paired with fresh baguette slices.

For entrées, we had the Filet Mignon, Rack of Lamb, Magret de Canard, French Fries, and the Salmon special of the day. Every single dish was a hit. The meats were expertly cooked to temperature, the sauces were layered and flavorful, and the sides were just as impressive. Even the fries deserve a shoutout—crispy, golden, and addictive.

The service was warm, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. They made sure my sister felt celebrated, and we never once felt rushed. The ambiance is cozy and intimate, with just the right touch of French charm.

Entre Nous continues to impress, and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite restaurants in town. Whether it’s a special occasion or just a night out, this bistro delivers every time. Already looking forward to visit number three!“

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

“This creperie is super cozy, even though it's a bit hidden because of construction. But it's open and they're really welcoming! Prices are low, and the vibe is cool. I really liked the savory crepe, it was interesting and tasty. The sweet one I got wasn't amazing, but it was still fine. They also have tea and coffee.“
