CAFE LE Reve

At Le Reve for Mother’s Day with my wife and our adult sons. I must say the food we ordered was superb! 😉👍🏽 We had a wonderful experience at this very friendly French Cafe. In addition, Ludovic—the Chef, and his family are wonderful hosts. 👏🏽👏🏽
If you want to spend a great 2-3 hrs enjoying great food in a very friendly environment, look no further: Cafe Le Reve.
NOTE: Reservations are required.

The food is incredible, and the attention from the staff and owner went above and beyond. It was hard to choose what to order because everything sounds tempting, and they took the time to answer our questions. We were absolutely satisfied with it all (shared between a party of 2)

They take reservations and walk-ins, calling ahead HIGHLY recommended.
I will absolutely visit again!

This little family run bistro is phenomenal! We enjoyed every bite of our brunch! The quality of the food and its perfect preparation made for an outstanding dining experience. Make sure you make a reservation. We did not and were very lucky to be seated. Next time- because there will be a next time- we will for sure make one!

My brother and I recently visited Cafe Le Reve in Riverside for a special celebration, and it exceeded every expectation. This intimate, hole-in-the-wall establishment requires reservations, but it's absolutely worth the planning ahead.
The moment we stepped inside, we were charmed by the cozy atmosphere and authentic French music playing softly in the background. What truly set this experience apart was the exceptional service, quite possibly the best we've ever encountered. Our servers were incredibly caring and knowledgeable, taking time to explain the day's specials while keeping us entertained with their delightful sense of humor. Their approach felt genuinely unique and personal.
The food arrived promptly, and the presentation was stunning. We ordered savory crepes and eggs Benedict with pavé potatoes, and every single bite was heavenly. The flavors were absolutely delicious and expertly crafted.
The combination of the intimate atmosphere, perfect French music, outstanding service, and exceptional food quality made for an unforgettable dining experience. The prices are very reasonable considering the high caliber of both service and cuisine.
For anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion, I wholeheartedly recommend Cafe Le Reve. Thank you to the entire team for providing such wonderful service, incredible food, and a truly memorable experience. We will definitely be returning!

Cute little French/American Fusion Restaurant. My husband and I came here for a brunch date, and the food was amazing! We got the special of the day which was a savory stuffed crepe with a salad and fruit. We also enjoyed dessert, a Lemon tart, and crème brûlée. I would definitely recommend this family owned restaurant! The husband, wife, daughter trio were a delight and so friendly and attentive. Be sure to call first to make a reservation as they only have 7 tables.

I came here with my fiancé and his family to celebrate a birthday dinner! Albeit small in space, the ambiance and cozyness is high. The food was exceptional. I ordered the Baked Oysters Rockefeller and the Bouillabaisse.

So comforting and great flavor. I plan on visiting again for future date nights with my fiancé

Amazing experience from the very beginning, from calling in to make a reservation to the very end. Everyone is so kind, service was amazing and food was delicious! Took me back when I visited Europe!

Vegetarian options: They gave us the option to make the daily special vegetarian.

Kid-friendliness: My kids are pre-teens but when we called to make reservations they asked if we needed a high chair. They treated our kids with kindness and offered options as well.
