French Restaurants near La Mesa, CA

“Overall an amazing and exceptional experience. The food is unique and nothing you can find in any other Mexican restaurant. Quality is superb and the presentation and creativity was inspiring.

But my favorite part was the amazing quality of the service! We felt like we were welcomed into someone's home. Our server was fantastic, but so was every other server we saw. They seemed genuinely happy and proud to be there. They took time to acknowledge everyone, not just their tables. I rubbed my arms a little and immediately had the nicest guy come right over and light the heater.
We are excited to go back to try more things on the menu.“

“Great all around dining experience.“

“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“

“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.“

“The best dining event in a long while. Food is terrific and the beer is literally ice cold. The owner is delightful! Please visit cause it is a treat.“

“It’s definitely was a 10 & 5 ⭐️ for sure! Our server Sarah was an absolute delight & very accommodating! The food delish.. the escargot was a first & I thoroughly enjoyed (my brother a baby & missed the experience) more for me! All of the food definitely top notch!“

“I get a quiche every week with my wife now. They are exactly like the ones I had when I was groing up in France. Try, you will love them !“

“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 ✨“

“Our server was subpar. when we sat down, we told her we were going to have a cocktail and enjoy that for a moment. right after the cocktails came, she came right back over and asked if we were ready to order. Which was strange after telling her we'd like a minute. It seemed like she was not listening. it was just off. She wasn't clearing dishes until we asked. Im guessing this experience is unusual. we loved the food and ambiance. we will definitely come back.“

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

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

“Very friendly and professional staff . Five star ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Patisserie Melanie keeps surprising me with incredible pastries. Their kouignette is absolutely sublime. I usually get my order to go, but everything I have tried has been top quality. In my opinion, it is one of the best pastry spots in San Diego. Prices are on the higher side but totally worth it.“

“Great Food and Friendly Service“
