French Restaurants near Hollywood, CA

“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.“

“We had an awesome date night at Amour WeHo. We started with caviar, escargot, and frog legs. We followed that with the burger and a Caesar salad with lobster. We enjoyed a nice bottle of wine with our dinner. The service was outstanding. All of the staff was great. This was our first visit and we are so happy that we found this place. We will be back soon.“

“I’m in LA visiting family and my mother and I stopped in here on a whim. And it’s absolutely beautiful. The decor, the ambience, the food, the service, everything is 10/10. Our waitress Caroline was an absolute doll. The hashbrowns and chicken sausage was amazing. My tequila sunrise was delicious. The spot is a gem !“

“Excellent food and service. Thank you!“

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

“Excellents croissant français.“

“Loved every single element of the experience with“

“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!!!“

“Lovely atmosphere and great varied menu“

“Great high quality food and service“

“A very authentic French restaurant. I like the food there.“

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

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

“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.“

“Los Feliz in California is a must and Figaro must be included! This is a wonderful unassuming French restaurant, very traditional French cuisine. Get the Moules Marinieres! They give you so many mussels and the fries were delicious! My only issue is that they don't serve bread to dip in the broth and I had to ask for a spoon. There was no way I was going to leave that delicious broth, well seasoned with rosemary! The Kir Royal was standard. Their desserts were also delicious. Had the millefeuille (Napoleon) and took home the bread pudding. The millefeuille was creamy and not overly sweet. The bread pudding was a very large portion that could be divided easily into two servings. My friend had the macarons. She said the pistachio was the best she had ever tasted. Service was pleasant. Dining was in old leather cushioned chairs, a little low and hard to prevent your bag from being on the floor. There are options to sit at other tables with bistro chairs Looking forward to returning to this restaurant!“

“Quality of food was excellent- lamb, chicken & risotto as mains. All starters great too - oysters, endive salad & sliced amberjack.
Service could be improved but we were struck given how most good restaurants in LA are super crowded how this excellent place was but half full on a Wednesday night. Our party included those from Korea Town - 20 minutes & Santa Monica - 30 minutes at rush hour- 6:45 - not bad.“

“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 👍.“

“Se los recomiendo muy rica comida y los meseros muy atentos 👍“

“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 !“

“Restaurant is beautifully designed. I loved the breakfast table setting. Genuine friendly greeting and service from Kevin was outstanding. My Croque Madame was delicious. Thank you chefs. Great job everyone.“

“Excelente food with unbelievable service“

“Seriously what a CUTE restaurant. For the ladies who love a gorgeous outdoor patio with delicious food and ambience, this is your spot! Be prepared to spend as this is a refined establishment despite the garden atmosphere. Everything we purchased was delectable, and although it was simple they have great wine selection. I will definitely be back! They also have valet so you don’t need to worry about parking.“

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

“Lovely food, charming interior. We had carpaccio, lobster bisque, crispy duck, and potato crusted salmon. The dishes were all prepared very well. The fresh bread was quite good, served with harissa, etc. We very much enjoyed the nut tart served with vanilla sauce and very nice hazelnut gelato. Can’t wait to go again.“

“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.“

“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!!!!“

“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.“

“Excellente cuisine et personnel sympathique!“

“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.“

“Welcoming and attentive service... delicious breakfast omelets... beautiful ambiance“

“Very good outdoor customer service!“

“Only recommend their basic vegetarian dishes. The chefs' confidence and pitch did not meet my expectations, and the add-ons were rather quite basic. My partner and I tried one full course without add-ons and one with all the add-ons, but we both much preferred the vegetarian options.

Few comments.. They will not take the initiative to explain the menu unless you paid for the extra. For the course four and five they basically used the same sauce. Regarding wine, unless you do a pairing, they will choose a bottle for you to try, but without much description and will simply ask you to say yes or no to it, which felt a bit odd. I left with mixed feelings. I’ve dined at many michelin but never felt like I wanted to leave a review before. Also will have to wait like 15-20mins to be seated from your reservation time without much explanation again.. And was also confused why they were playing kpop half the time. Maybe cuz its in ktown?

I think you will enjoy it if you can vibe with them!“

“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.“

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

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

“Wonderful atmosphere! My favorite place for breakfast. Staff are amazing and so friendly. They make you feel right at home!“

“Fabulous. Love the French Onion souop“

“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.“

“My third time there, brought a group this time. They throughly enjoyed themselves!
The atmosphere, the student workers & loved the selection of foods. We shared tasting and raved about the tastes, preparation, presentation and creative mixing. What a fabulous place to dine!!“

“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!“
