French Restaurants near La Jolla, CA

“An absolutely amazing dining experience! Went at high tide (not King Tide) but still special having the waves come up to our window! It was our 21st wedding anniversary and they did everything to make it special. Special table right on the window with waves up to our window. Custom personalized menu and glass of champagne to toast. Stefano was so classy and treated us like royalty. No rush at all and excellent service all night. There were a few mistakes made like timing and steak a little undercooked but they were so apologetic and went way above and beyond service to correct and make things right (way more than necessary) The lobster bisque was probably best ever and our Poached Butter lobster and Waygu Ribeye were spectacular. Everything was fantastic and how they took care of us over very minor mistakes, was stellar! We will be back for other special occasions and highly recommend for special dining experience.“

“The food was so salty! The lobster bisque and the raviolis tasted the same!“

“Came this evening & wrote the review before I’d even left so I didn’t forget!
WOW not only was this service exceptional, the food was absolutely amazing! I would give this a 100 stars if I could. Thank you thank you thank you!!

“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.“

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

The staff was attentive and our waitress who had short blonde hair did a great job with handling my allergies, offering great wine choices, and overall being excited about our meal and experience. We were nervous about joining so late but did not feel rushed which was so nice.“

“It had been a long time since I’ve had La Creperie, and it definitely did not disappoint. Whether you’re in the mood for savory or sweet, you really can’t go wrong here.

I originally planned to hit up the Hillcrest Farmers Market for the full crepe + market vibe, but after driving around for 30 minutes trying to find parking, I gave up and headed straight to their North Park location—and honestly, I’m glad I did.

I ordered the California crepe, and as always, it was amazing. The portion was huge—I couldn’t even finish it, so now I’ve got a second meal waiting for me later (which is never a bad thing).

If you’re craving a solid, satisfying crepe, this place is always a win.“

“Great entertainment specially Saturdays.“

“We found this place at random when looking for brunch, and it looked good. I’m allergic to canola oil, gluten, and dairy, so I always appreciate better quality places. They did not disappoint! They used olive oil so I didn’t need to worry, and had a lot more choices. The menu is really well marked for food allergies. The Shakshuka was flavorful and hot, gluten free bread was ideal for dipping in the sauce, salad was fresh. Very nice place, will need to try some of the other menu items next time.“

“Splendid and oh so cozy dining room…where you are surrounded by rows and rows of outstanding bottles of wine…the food is absolutely delicious…the baked Brie was amazing…short rib sliders fantastic…goats milk cheesecake yum!! Enjoy!!“

“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.“

“Lovely decor with outdoor seating. The Avocado Toast was delicious 😋“

“While getting in my steps and exploring the Coronado neighborhood, I discovered Crown Bistro at 520 Orange Ave. A beautiful and quaint cafe nestled within the Crown City Inn. The Crown Bistro is a fantastic family owned restaurant with tasty food and stellar service. I had the incredible crab Eggs Benedict with a refreshing mimosa“
