We had a lovely birthday dinner. Every dish was on point, especially the desserts! Best apple tarte tatin I have ever eaten ❤️. Super cozy neighborhood restaurant.

Excellent food and service! Cost was a little high for what was received. Tight environment but still made for a nice environment.

I love down the street from this place and it is always a pleasure to go here. It is such a gem.
Charles
Great, little neighborhood French restaurant. Excellent service, food, and always makes me and my guest feel welcomed.

Gorgeous, sophisticated, conversational atmosphere of the kind so hard to find in the City. My chicken was the best I've ever had. Beautiful molten chocolate cake for dessert! Lovely wine selection. Perfect place for a “significant” date, to take friends from out of town, to reconnect with an old friend. Glad I spent my birthday here!
Donald
Wonderful authentic food. The service from our waitress was so thoughtful and expedient and professional. Def will return. And don't skip the cheese plate for dessert. Wow. Flavor central !

Absolutely authentic! I felt like I was in Paris!

Had a very lovely dinner at L’ardoise Bistro for my mother’s birthday. The food, atmosphere, and service were fantastic (especially the lamb!). So cozy, perfect for winter. Can’t wait to dine here again!

I don't know of any other French restaurant like this in San Francisco. It's like sitting in any nice bistro in Paris, where only locals eat. Food is always very good.
I really love the restaurant. Atmosphere and food was great 👍

This food really is unmatched. The service was great and the atmosphere was cozy. It is working with a bit of a limited space, but they are so quick to service that you don’t even have time to notice. The portion are just right and the deserts aren’t too filling so definitely worth ordering some no matter how full you think you are.
Plus apparently the chef is the owner, so good sign of quality of food!
They have a weird curtain at the door that makes it seem like they are closed, but just ignore that.

My wife and I had the best experience at L'Ardoise. Everything from the food to the service to the ambiance was perfect. If you love traditional French cuisine then this is the best spot in San Francisco.

One of my favorite restaurants in SF. Unpretentious classic French fare. Excellent service every time I've been, the food is divine!

Welcoming staff, good service, they seemed happy to be there and see us as their guests. The dining room staff were a team, they helped each other so that the service was seamless. It was my first visit, I was impressed and certainly go back.
