French Restaurants near Los Gatos, CA

“Really wonderful ambiance, Charles is a great waiter, the service and food is wonderful. If you are into desserts, the beignets are epic. EPIC!“

“Lovely service, yummy French offerings. Comfortable patio out back.“

“I had a fantastic experience doing the tasting menu and the wine pairing. Lots of small perfectly executed dishes, served at a good cadence. Lots of the ingredients were foraged, including some of the seafood. The wines in the pairing were great, especially considering the price point of the pairing was very reasonable - for so many pours of wine. I understand that the menu is constantly changing - so I'm sure I'll be going back soon.“

“Nice place and relaxing place for fine dining.“

“We went for a birthday dinner for a party of 10 mid week. Service was slow we were informed they only had partial menu options. The food quality for appetisers was good . The entrees were good quality. We ordered lamb chops were excellent , beef stir fry ( was not great) . Seabass was great. So a combination of hit and miss.“

“I had the pleasure of dining at La Boulanger and I must say, it far exceeded my expectations for a breakfast and brunch establishment. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted by an atmosphere that felt both welcoming and vibrant, setting the stage for an exceptional dining experience.

The menu is a delightful fusion of traditional breakfast favorites and innovative culinary creations. Each dish is crafted with precision and flair, showcasing not only the skill of the kitchen staff but also a commitment to using high-quality ingredients. I had the opportunity to sample their signature grilled cheese sandwich, which was nothing short of extraordinary. The cheese, perfectly melted and oozing as you pull apart the sandwich, created an indulgent experience that is hard to match. Paired with their freshly baked pastries, it was a meal that left me dreaming about my next visit.

In addition to the food, the level of customer service at La Boulanger is commendable. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about providing an outstanding dining experience. They were eager to recommend their favorite dishes and ensured that I had everything I needed throughout my visit. This dedication to exceptional service elevated my experience, making me feel valued as a customer.

I am certain that you will find me there at any opportunity I have, whether for a morning pastry or an indulgent mid-day meal.

In conclusion, La Boulanger stands out as a premier destination for breakfast and brunch enthusiasts. With its delicious food, impeccable service, and inviting atmosphere, it has certainly set a new standard in cafe etiquette. I wholeheartedly recommend this gem to anyone looking to elevate their brunch experience.“

“Celebrated our anniversary and everything was perfect! Great food and excellent service!!!“

“La Mere Michelle hosted our wedding reception on Saturday Feb. 29th and it was an amazing night! Chef Marc, Madame Michelle, and their whole team really made this special for us. We asked our guests to get to the restaurant at 5:30, and they already had a special room all setup for us. I had been working with Marc in the days leading up to the wedding, he was a ton of help. Helped us get the room exactly how we wanted it and was even sending videos of the setup the day before. His great communication and confidence in the success of the night really helped put our nerves at ease. After our guests visited for a bit and had their wine served to us by a team of their staff, we started off with a delicious wedge salad. It had the perfect balance of Roquefort dressing, bacon, and bleu cheese crumbles. There was even someone going around with fresh cracked pepper offered to each guest! All the salads came out in a timely manner, with the bride and myself the groom being served first. The plates were quickly cleared when guests were done and it was on to the next course. Each guest was given a choice of a chicken, steak, or salmon dish. What I especially appreciated was that the guests had their orders taken on the spot - none of that needing to pick your option weeks/months ahead of time! Personally I was planning on the salmon, but that night I decided to go with the chicken. These entrees were served traditionally and also came out on time, with no guests having to wait any longer than the amount of time it took to walk back from the kitchen. The wine and water was kept pouring throughout this whole time. After dinner we were all served champagne for a nice toast and some speeches. The whole dinner, from the moment we arrived, we were waited on by at a minimum three staff. Not like they would wait other tables and come check on us when needed - they were there to help the whole dinner! They were also serving at the bar just outside the room when our guests wanted something different than beer. It was a really nice personal touch to have assistance the whole night. All the staff was nice and friendly, they were talking to us and the guests and added to the conversations but without being too much. Madame Michelle was also making her rounds, talking to the guests and giving us good marriage advice while also making sure everything was as perfect as we expected during this wedding reception. All in all this was a great place to have our dinner at. Chef Marc handled all the Little Details and provided us some much needed stress relief. The food was delicious, the service top notch, and everything was above and beyond what we expected. Looking forward to eating here again on our next trip to Saratoga!“

“Lamb is to salivate over“

“First visit to Elements tonight (Wednesday), on the recommendation of neighbors. Dinner was absolutely delicious! Each dish was perfectly prepared, beautifully presented, and served with great attention to detail and care. Glad we saved room for dessert, because the mango pana cotta and vanilla bean creme brulee were 10/10! Would highly recommend this spot, and look forward to visiting again soon.“

“As always EXCELLENT Service and GREAT FOOD!“

“The food was really yummy. I went there for my birthday. The food was well seasoned. We had short ribs, rack of lamb and French onion soup and apple puff. Staff servixe was excellent. However, your voice echos in the inside space. Next time I will sit outside.“

“The Best Experience and service with amazing Fondue choices galore!!!!“
