French Restaurants near Mountain View, CA

“The experience of dining there was next level. From start to finish they have perfected the dining experience. Food, staff, and ambiance was five star!“

“The food was incredible. I wanted to order almost everything on the menu. So will have to come back at least couple more times to try everything to look good and we couldn’t order in one night. Our old fashion cocktail and blackberry Mojito were perfect. And I can’t say enough about considerate, professional service.“

“Wine selection is excellent, don’t hesitate to ask for recommendation if you are not a French wine expert. We loved the lamb chops, they are delicious and the portion is just right. We also recommend the pork medallions.“

“OMG. Random roadside tastiness in the parking lot next to China Wok! Great hibiscus tea, best latte I've had in ages, and awesome creme brulee. Tacos were pretty good, though not at "amazing" level, but prices were also pretty great --$2 for the tea, for example“

“Hands down the best bakery in Mountain View area“

“Staff are friendly. They’re pet friendly. My Ribeye steak was the best!“

“We eat here a lot. Friendly service, delicious French food. I usually get the salmon, the bouillabaisse, one of the eggs benedicts, or the beef bourgogne. All great.“

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

“Vida in Menlo Park has become my go-to spot for both personal dining and when I have guests in town. I've been there several times, and every visit has been consistently fantastic. The food is incredible—I've tried many different dishes, and they never disappoint. The portions are generous, especially the desserts, which are perfect for sharing. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making the overall experience even better. If you're in the area, Vida is a must-visit for a memorable meal!“

“Lamb is to salivate over“

“I can't remember the last time I had a pork chop as delicious as the one with maple bourbon glaze at Campagne One! It was juicy and tastily accompanied by asparagus and mashed potatoes, the latter which allowed me to capture every last drop of sauce. The chocolate hazelnut and banana crepe was a hearty portion, but I felt virtuous leaving some crepe behind after eating all the filling.“

“As always EXCELLENT Service and GREAT FOOD!“

“It’s different from Santana row“

“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!“

“My goto French cafe with delicious French bakery, Freshly pressed OJ’s, and excellent coffees.“

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

“Eat outside if you can -- we were seated in the back, where things were a little claustrophobic. The service was good but not great, but heads-up: you are going to be paying a 20% tip whether you want to or not, no matter the quality of your waiter!“

“Delicious chocolate and berries cake beautifully presented for my daughter’s 30th Birthday complete with a decorated chocolate plate with the words Happy Birthday! Thank you, the cake was perfection!“
