French Restaurants near Tiburon, CA

“We came in for lunch on a Thursday afternoon and we’re treated to the most delicious Chimay Premier Red Ale, a magnificent warm, lamb and bacon sandwich with home made French Fries presented in a lovely cone, and of course delicious moules frites. The highlight of our meal, however, was our delightful waitress, Tracy, who sprinkled lovely suggestions and made our leisurely luncheon a pleasure. Well prepared food, a welcoming ambiance and gracious welcome by the staff. 5/5“

“fantastic little restaurant - excellent wine list and great beef bourgogne“

“One65 was an amazing discovery on our trip to San Francisco. Having spent the first half of our life in Montréal, Québec, Canada where it was hard to find a bad restaurant, we were absolutely amazed by this Bistro which looks more like a high end dining experience. The menu online & the photos attracted us to this location but we were amazed by the well timed service, the crisp white tablecloths, the table setting and the pleasant and calm atmosphere. My choices of charcuterie platter was perfectly sized; the chicken & the pork rillettes where a wonderful surprise. My husband had an onion tart with the crust as perfect as they get & which I envied. He loved his halibut, moist and tender and I raved over my grilled half lobster, so tender that I found myself munching on the shell parts as well. My bread pudding was not of overwhelming size & perfectly flavored. Don chose the Affogato (scoop of vanilla gelato « drowned » with a shot of hot espresso). We wanted to go back today but they are closed on Sundays.?“

“Truly enjoyed our dinner here. We ordered one additional dish alongside the fixed course, and every single plate was delicious and beautifully presented. I especially loved the variety of ingredients—particularly the vegetables, many of which were new to me and incredibly fresh. The flavors, atmosphere, and service were all excellent, and the price was very reasonable for the quality offered. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious and exquisite meal. We are very supportive of vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free diets and we are very grateful for that. The attentive staff made the experience even better. This was the most interesting and creative meal I have ever had in my life. Highly recommended.“

“Very intimate atmosphere, excellent food and attentive service.“

“My go-to when I'm in town! Fantastic food and service. Highly recommend!“

“Came here for dinner on a Saturday evening with a very close friend.
We were warmly greeted by the very attentive staff. This family-operated restaurant has a very warm ambiance, conducive to conversation and fine dining.
Christie, the host, made us feel very welcome and comfortable throughout the evening. She patiently reviewed the menu, without rushing us to a decision.
For appetizers, we had the Escargot, the Liver Mousse, and the French Onion Tart, all expertly prepared with renowned Chef Bruno's innovative takes on these classics.
Our entrees were the expertly-prepared braised Oxtail signature dish, and the Sea Bass, the daily special also meticulously cooked to perfection.
We finished our great dining experience with delicious Chocolate Mousse and Creme Brulee.
Overall, this was a complete and perfect dining experience! Will definitely return, and will also highly recommend to friends and colleagues.“

“Excellent services the hard beer 🍺 is good and the margarita“

“Great burgers, delicious desserts, and awesome staff!“

“Excellent place for lunch or dinner. The first time I entered a few days ago as a surprise because I didn't know the place and I got carried away by my curiosity. Today again I came out more than happy.The relationship between price and quality of food and service is perfect. The people who work deserve all the respect and recognition. Fresh and very good quality ingredients, treated with respect and head. The burgers, especially, are spectacular. Competent and very attentive service.In a word: absolutely recommended site.Also, a detail: the entire place is open and visible to customers. Always a very good sign and a lot of confidence, when there is nothing to hide. Congratulations!“

“This is the second time in a week I've dined at Bistro Central Parc - it is getting louder and louder. First, the music has changed - what was sort of vague European music has become loud music and with a definite beat - and not very appealing to being at dinner with friends - if this is a French Bistro ... the music choice needs to match. And then when you have a friend who has trouble hearing - it's killer. One couple - one on each night - who both have loved the Bistro in the past, independent of each declared they will not come back. Period. It was asked to turn the music down a bit, and finally it was just turned it off. And it was still very loud for some reason - perhaps because we had become used to shouting at each other? They've got to solve this - or they will lose loyal customers.“

“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.“

“Really good food, very reasonably priced, with outstanding views if you sit on the patio. The waitstaff is outstanding!“

“Best crepes in SF! They do catering too:)“

“My wife always asking me to take her to eat special French food especially on holiday. The restaurant feel quite exclusive and atmosphere because it is like trying to get concert ticket. They make you standing outside for quite a long time. My wife find out I pay a lot of US dollar for the small food. Taste is ok. Wine very good. She stop asking me to take her to French food now.“

“Lors de notre séjour à San Francisco nous avons découvert Le Marais Bakery. Nous avons ADORÉ, la nourriture est délicieuse et le service vraiment très chaleureux et très professionnel. L’équipe est souriante et au petit soin. N’hésitez pas à vous arrêter pour déguster les délicieuses viennoiseries et/ou les autres plats proposés, vous ne serez pas déçu(e)s!!“

“Exceptional dining experience at Quince for dinner. The food is beautiful & delicious. We were surprised by chicken on the menu but it was the best we’ve ever had. The white asparagus & crab dish was another favorite. Details were perfect, service on point, each glass, knife, and plate carefully curated. The design & florals were lovely. The wine pairing was exceptional and the NA pairing was the best I’ve had anywhere. Highly recommend!“

“Brioche French Toast,My Favorite super delicious!“

“The restaurant is around the corner from my apartment. I've wanted to go there for a very long time and am glad I finally made it. It's also a wine bar with a very good selection to choose from and even better prices on bottle to go. I started with crab stuffed mushrooms and they were incredible. The chenin blanc paired perfectly with them. I'm a true sucker for hash and they serve a pastrami hash with duck confit and two eggs. That paired perfectly with an incredible pinot noir. I enjoyed both dishes and wines very much and will probably drop in for a bottle of the chenin blanc before too much time passes. I'll also be going back to try the dinner menu soon.“

“The view is comfortable and the dishes are exquisite. It is highly recommended.“

“My friend, Mike, who lives nearby with his wife, raved about it so much that my BF and I decided to come after a short trip to Marin. It was everything that he described and more. It was fantastic! Excellent food and atmosphere. Will definitely add to my list of favorites and will recommend to my Palo Alto friends!“

“great food, good prices.“

“Just had another amazing meal at March. Olivier runs a tight ship, and his Chef knows how to put out amazing food. Best Casoulet I have had in a long time, reminded me of real in-country French fare. Deserts were fantastic, and drink menu expansive.
Merci!“

“great service and great food!!“

“Chouquet’s is an amazing restaurant! I really love it! it’s one of the only truly authentic French spots in SF. The service is fantastic: super attentive without being over the top. The food is great and traditional (and well beyond just moules frites… ), and they have an easygoing but really good wine selection. Whenever people ask me for my top three restaurants in SF, this is one of them.
See you next time!“

“The service, neighborhood, community integration with current events reflected in their menu. Today I experienced a fusion of Italian Heritage Culture thru food in their special event menu as we watched the parade at a curbside table.“

“Our foursome used to attend Zuni together regularly in the mid-late '90s. It's wonderful to see that Zuni has continued to exhibit the casual-chic serious-about-food but light-heartened ambiance that made it such a pleasure to since then. Unfortunately our long-planned revisit was seriously marred by the lax disinterest and frankly condescending attitude of our waiter, who shared his name as Martin. I had diligently made 12noon reservations for a Sunday that we 4 had a 2pm Ballet. I noted that in the reservation, requesting that we finish by 1:30. I arrived at 11:50, my former spouse at 11:55, and our long time friends at 12:10pm due to cab/rain delays. I ordered a French 75 upon my arrival (fresh lemon juice, but the champagne was flat). Everyone else ordered a beverage, and our main order was taken at 12:30pm: a shared Caesar, a burger, 2 orders of the scrambled eggs with crab, and the Sardines ordered for one of us as their entree. Nothing complicated. At 1pm, after lingering over the Caesar for 20 minutes, and all of us very hungry for our food, we asked if our food was on it's way. The waiter came over and rather than abologize for the 1/2 hour wait, told us he was aware of our ballet and our 30 minute leave time. Pretty dismissive, frankly. The burger and the sardines arrived at 1:10pm and were placed in front of the two men who ordered them. The remaining two women sat without their order for a full 41/2 minutes, finely able to eat their meals 45 minutes after ordering! They had exactly 10 minutes to wolf them down, ask for the check, pay the check. And leave. Apparently it never occured to "Martin" that guests might have thought, with a 90 minute lunch reservation, they would be able to actually enjoy the food they ordered, have a dessert and a coffee, and then leave. The food and wine itself (the cocktail being disappointing) was up to Zuni's high standards. If only we had had more than 15 minutes to enjoy it. An arrogant waiter can ruin it all.“

“It's always a great experience. I highly recommend it.“

“Great view of the marina, lovely to eat outside when the weather is nice. The food is great, we had brunch: the galette, the baked oysters, chickpea fries and the mushroom tart. The food was great and on point, quality ingredients and fast service. Totally recommend it.“

“Really good food, very reasonably priced, with outstanding views if you sit on the patio. The waitstaff is outstanding!“

“An amazing selection of culinary experiences with fantastic food and libations, and better service. A San Fran must!“

“We visit ISA several times a year, and we’ve always been delighted with the food and service. Their classic dishes are a welcome relief from other restaurants attempts to be unique but failing the good taste test.“

“The water view on a sunny spring day was so wonderful. Great location, I was able to park on the side of the street, and we sat outside. I had the egg sandwich- overall was great, especially the presentation, the bread and salad were delicious the big chunk of egg could use more sauce. the view and atmosphere were well worth it.“

“Food was good. Onion soup- I gotta say was delicious. Flavorful broth, chunky onions with a piece of bread/cheese broiled on top. Ordered steak frites. Steak was cooked perfectly. Frites were under seasoned and didn't have the herbs as described. Hericot green beans were also cooked perfectly. Apple crisp dessert was delicious, not too sweet. Stephanie (Manager) was super friendly. The only thing they can work on is their service. We were seated and waited for about 10 min before our orders were taken, while a couple seated after us were attended too almost immediately. Another couple was told it would be about 10 min before a table opened up, a couple came in and were seated at the open table meant for the previous couple. 🤦‍♂️“

“Been going here for over 30 years, nice Quiet and great food“

“If you can get a table in this place, you are a very lucky person because all the dishes are fantastic.
You can still hope for a table on the sidewalk if the weather is clement.
All pastries and savory dishes are of the highest quality and the highest level. You cannot go wrong here!!!
Of course, the price is correlated to the quality but it is all worth it!“

“An exceptional dining experience“

“Excellent place! Everything we tried was outstanding.
Amy was exceptional — a true professional, warm and welcoming, and she made us feel right at home.
We enjoyed the gnocchi, the green salad, the black cod, and the soup of the day, and every dish was wonderful.
The wine list is also excellent. We will definitely be back!“

“The food, the presentation, the service.“

“The bakery here is at the elevated level of beauty, aroma, and taste. People said that good bakery can look like jewelry boxes. I am not fond of jewelry, but I of course love bakery! The marcipan, almond paste, and meringe in each piece of the pastry is rich and aromatic. The price point is reasonable compared with the quality. I now would love to try all other items as well. Worth stopping by to make your weekend more special.“

“If I'm in San Francisco, it's a mandatory stop for me for an evening or late-night bite!“

“Great place. Very peaceful“

“We came here for happy hour on a Monday evening and we were one of the only customers in a nearly empty restaurant, so service was pretty efficient. We almost had the entire staff catering exclusively to us. I'd say the restaurant kind of feels like a cross between a bistro bar and a 50s restaurant with dim lighting. Once we took a look at the menu, of course we had to get a wine flight.
Between 2 of the $13 wine flights, we ordered a Melon de Bourgogne, Merlot, Gamay, and then we were recommended a Rose Grenache, and an an orange wine, which was interesting.

$ 7 Chicken Liver Mousse:
okay! It was topped with chives, served with cornichons.

$10 Jamon Serrano Croquetas:
good! definitely fresh, because it came piping hot. I had to cut it in half and let it steam for a few minutes.

$19 Octopus Carpaccio - pickled capers and pickled peppers, pomegranate:
great! very tangy taste, get it if you like sour flavors

$29 Duck Leg Confit - Grimaud farm duck leg with gratin dauphinois, salad, duck jus:
excellent! crispy skin on duck leg with green salad and radishes helped lighten it up.

When we got our bill, it came tucked inside of a French paperback, which I thought was a cute touch. We got full from happy hour, though two items were not from the happy hour menu. I give Amelie a 9.2/10“

“I had a glass of wine, olives, and a savory gluten-free crepe for an early dinner. Loved everything! Great place for introverts who want to read since the waitstaff/owner doesn’t bother you every few minutes. A French-speaking customer ordered food to take home so this place must be authentic. Give it a try!“

“I have eaten at Left Bank Brasserie many times over the years, as my son lives in Larkspur. Have also celebrated several milestone birthdays there. The food has always been first rate, and the service impeccable!“

“Love this place. It’s always good and fresh. The Nutella/ strawberry 🥐 croissant is yummm, a must have.“
