French Restaurants near Playa Vista, CA

“We hosted my daughter's 2nd birthday party there, the owners were so accommodating and let us setup the space however we wanted and also were very generous with setup and clean up time! The food and drink package was wonderful, so nice to have food that adults will enjoy too right on-site and don't needed to manage separate caterers. Everyone loved their meatballs. Thank you for a great event!“

“En Petit Trois, la cocina habla por sí sola. Tanto la hamburguesa como el pescado destacan por una técnica precisa y una ejecución impecable, donde cada elemento está en perfecto equilibrio; dos platillos memorables, difíciles de jerarquizar. Aunque no fue posible degustar la coctelería debido a la política de requerir pasaporte físico para el servicio de alcohol, la propuesta gastronómica se sostiene con absoluta solidez. Una experiencia sobria, bien lograda y digna de repetirse.“

“Excellent food and service. Thank you!“

“My wife and I had a last minute great dinner at Coucou. We coincidentally happened to dine on Martini Monday, which was truly a great deal including their fantastic Burger Americaine and a top-notch dirty martini. We also shared the steak frites (prepared perfectly with tasty fries) and would never miss the soft serve sundae! It's great to have such a wonderful and comfortable french-style bistro in the neighborhood, and we'll be thrilled to return soon! Thank you very much for the fun, spontaneous evening!“

“We were there on Valentine Day for their prix fixe menu. There were items on that menu that were excellent choices and we did not feel limited at all. The food was excellent and paced just right. They also had one of our favorite wines, a Vouvray which is very rare to find on a restaurant. The service was spot on and very accommodating. Our evening was wonderful and we will be returning to try their regular menu!“

“Great service, fantastic food and presentation. Great live music. Was a great experience!“

“First time solo customer; sat outside, and my breakfast was très bon! Served with grace, care, and pride. Every single ingredient was wonderful and cooked perfectly. All the flavors and textures commingled beautifully.
They can’t help it that the building next to them is boarded up. All the employees could not have been more pleasant and friendly. Definitely will return and bring friends. Oui, I recommend!“

“I love Simonette. The patio is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy a cocktail and breakfast, lunch, or brunch. I’ve been there twice now and I can highly recommend the burger on the menu - the fried egg on top completes it! And the mussels in the light cream sauce are wonderful - especially with fries. A friend of mine ordered the fried Bronzino - the complete fish including the head - and she said it was delicious. There are great cocktails available and several wines and Prosecco available by the glass. The onsite valet parking is a bit steep, but there are many nearby options for parking in downtown Culver City if you don’t mind walking a few blocks.“

“Excelente food with unbelievable service“

“Amazing champagne and caviar tasting. Great experience!“

“Our Sunday night takeout meal of Roasted Chicken and Cheese, corn and bacon macaroni gratin was delicious. Paired with a nice French white wine, it was almost as good as eating at the restaurant. Looking forward to future offerings.“

“Since they have introduced VEGAN soups, the delite of this has brought in many others besideS myself MORE OFTEN! They started a few weeks ago with a potato porage type soup which was so delicious, we had hard time not ordering more...the second vegan soup was one with garbanzo beans with other really delicious quality CONTENTS & taste. "PLEASE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK"...Great Now!!!!“

“If you're even reading this, it's because you appreciate truly great food. I first discovered Le Comptoir because of its Michelin star—but I came back because of the perfection, creativity, and heart that Chef Gary Menes and his small team put into every single course. This is the kind of place where the details actually matter: the pacing is thoughtful, the flavors are dialed-in, and every plate feels intentional without ever feeling fussy or pretentious. The experience is also amazingly personal—you're close enough to watch the team work, and it's genuinely special to see such talented people practicing their craft right in front of you. If you're looking for a memorable night built around passion, precision, and food that feels like art (but tastes even better), Le Comptoir absolutely delivers.“

“Our favorite place to eat in the area. Not only a little piece of France, but truly delicious and authentic food. Prices are reasonable too.“

“We are so happy Régalade has joined the neighborhood and it is hands down the best new restaurant we’ve tried this year!! With so many Italian spots around here, it’s so nice to finally have a really (really) good French restaurant on west third street.

We got the warm baguette with butter, the salade verte with warm goat cheese (I will be trying to recreate this dressing at home), French onion soup (insane), and steak frites (perfection). Everything was amazing, but the apple tartine… I’m not kidding, it might be one of the best desserts I’ve ever had??? I wasn’t drinking but the cocktails looked excellent as well.

Also the service was so good. Everyone was genuinely nice and it just felt like one of those places you want to become a regular at. We’re already excited to go back!!!“

“Very good outdoor customer service!“

“Wonderful atmosphere! My favorite place for breakfast. Staff are amazing and so friendly. They make you feel right at home!“

“My first time dining at Fete Bistro. Great value and so wonderful to eat a French meal with the accordion windows open. I highly recommend the fried green tomatoes, steak tartare, French onion soup and all of their entrees. My husband had the sea bass special and he said it was one of the best prepared sea bass dishes he's ever eaten. The crème brûlée and pistachio cheese cake were both decadent and delicious. We drank pear martinis and Slay Estate Pinot Noir. We will be back!!“
