Very nice french restaurant. Pretty authentic and well done food. Simple and unassuming. Very nice and efficient service.

I've been here twice.
Food: The food was fantastic both times (for me), but you have to be open to different kinds of palates, which really isn't for everyone.
Service: The service mid-afternoon on a Saturday was awful. I don't know if patrons usually like being left alone but the server barely came around, and it seemed like our requests were bothering her when all we were asking for was more water and what we ordered.
Atmosphere: parking is nearly impossible to find. For outdoor seating, the street cars are too loud and inside the kitchen is loud and tables are snug together. Some may call it a cozy vibe but I felt uncomfortable. For the amount I'm spending on food, I expect better from the experience.

We recently held a 16-person birthday dinner here, and the experience was flawless. Julie, Oriana, and the entire team were incredibly warm and attentive, making sure every guest felt taken care of. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was delightful, and the pricing was very reasonable for such a high-quality experience.
I have eaten at the restaurant many times, but this was the first time with a larger group. We feel so lucky to have this gem in the neighborhood.

Tried to go on friends recommendation and drove from a while aways, but they were randomly closed on a Wednesday even though it was business hours. Their website mentioned no such closing either.
And they don’t take reservations, so not sure how one is suppose to know they are randomly closed.

Like so many San Francisco neighborhood restaurants, this one is a gem. In the Outer Sunset, blocks from Ocean Beach, this little bistro serves superb French food, features excellent, friendly, service, and a wonderful wine list. We were craving a couple of dishes, and were delighted with both the presentation and quality of the Beef Tartare and the Lyonnaise Frisée. Combined with an excellent Chicken Liver Mousse and a glass of their Rhone Valley Julien Musc, our evening out provided us with a vivid memory of why we love France and its cuisine. We will absolutely return when we're next in San Francisco.

Great little casual bistro style cafe near SFSU and Ocean Beach. Food is delicious and the ambience is laid back and inviting. Good service and fair pricing. Will definitely return.

Chicken sandwich was delicious! 😋 Very tender, full of flavor! Escargots were yummy and French onion soup was rich and savory. Service was excellent. Very attentive and friendly 😊 Nice atmosphere too. The food took a long time to come out but I guess they need to savor the flavors.

Adorable bistro near the beach with nice service and a good selection of tasty fare and seasonal treats. Staff were patient and kind with my questions about the wine selection (i’m not at all a wine connoisseur) and about the dessert options.

Wonderful stop for lunch, and decided quickly to cancel the rest of the afternoon, split a bottle wine (fun selection), have apps, entrees, and dessert, and slow down and enjoy.
Never was rushed, had great service, enjoyable conversations with the team, and went back the next day.

Ordered 5 burgers, every single one of them was raw to the point of moo-ing. They refunded our money, but we were still left trying to figure out dinner for our family. Absolutely disgusting.

Waited for almost 4 hours just to get sat down and order. I saw plenty of people come after us and get served first. They only served the food after we asked multiple different times. I have no idea why this restaurant is rated so high, it's food, staff, atmosphere, and efficiency can be outdone tenfold by a 5-year old. After we expressed our disdain, the manager was pissed AT US, and put a damper on the whole meal. This has happened with others that I know too. Do not come here unless you like to wait.
