French wine bar in DTLA - definitely a hidden gem tucked away in a mall (?) entrance but absolutely worth the visit. Well-curated wine list, almost exclusively French staff who will charm you away with their wittiness and hospitality. We specifically enjoyed the scallops with black truffle and the garlic bread (sorry but it’s too die for). Can also recommend the escargot if you enjoy the texture - the taste was on point. Would definitely recommend for a laid back dinner vibe with friends

Fantastic evening yesterday at Garçons de Café, downtown Los Angeles, for a special event with Chef of Cafe Leza. Whenever you come, you will find a curated selection of French wine (and wine from all around the world) and the owner, Mathieu, will help you to pair it with delicious cheese and charcuterie plates. No wonder it is called « your extension living-room ». I will come back!

Impressive wine selection but let down on the tapa options. Ordered the parisian, olives, and combination charcuterie plate and was disappointed by the quality of cheeses and portion of meats. It wasn’t horrible by any means, just a let down. Jazz night was quite nice and the atmosphere is super cute, inside you dont feel like youre in the Springs Arcade building in the middle of DTLA. Would recommend for someone who wants to sit down, chill and have a glass of good quality wine. Apparently there are interesting pop-ups hosted here like eclair.la

We organized an Apero Francophone here for the Bastille day and it was just a great night.The bartender and owner was overwhelmed with how many people we brought but kept it up all night. Kept their calmed and served out orders one by one.Beautiful little parisien bar in Los Angeles!

Loved the host. He is very sweet and professional of explaining the different types of wine while my two friends and I tried the pair of baguette with hummus, hint of paprika, chopped black olives and wine. It was a very interesting acquired taste. My friends and I enjoyed the wine and pairing and the service. I'm definitely coming back for more.

This place is a hidden gem. Great wine and ambiance. Charcuterie, cheese and other french bites were spot on.

A genuine bistro . Great place to relax and enjoy an afternoon glass or two of wine.

Cute place to grab a coffee or a glass of wine. I could practice my French with the server.

This establishment is both a wine bar and coffee shop. A couple of friends and I came here after going to a group show of young artists' work at a temporary 'pop up' gallery space nearby. (There was nicer art on the walls here, than in the gallery space, by the way.) We had coffee, tea and tapas style snacks. The place has a nice, warm, cozy neighborhood feel to it, and reminded me of the wine bars one used to find on West B'way during the height of the SOHO gallery scene back home in NYC. The only drawback (and it's a minor one) is that, with only the barman (possibly the owner/operator himself) on duty that evening, and a decent number of other patrons to attend to, I had to remind him to bring us our second order of finger food. Nice place. I'll be coming back next time I'm in this area of DTLA.
