French Restaurants near Stamford, CT

“This is the place to go if you want the best traditional french food in the area. We had five different entrees and including two appetizers which all were fantastic. I have been there quite a few times and never have been disappointed.“

“I’ve dined here a few times… the vibe is pretty awesome, laid back and welcoming. The family owned restaurant offers a great selection from Chef Adrian’s awesome vision of French and south East Asian cuisine ! Pretty cool combo. When you arrive you’re greeted and seated. I recommend reservations as it can fill up quickly. On our first trip there we tried the lobster shooters which are a must try. Basically you get a piece of lobster in a shot glass with a coconut curry concoction.. take the shot and boom 🤯 what a creative amazing app! We also had the salt and pepper cod over garlicky fried rice and their shaken beef dish! Both dishes were prepared with one thought in mind! perfection. They have a pretty neat dessert collection that you won’t find on most menus, you can say it’s unique to this restaurant. The coco panna cotta, key lime pie, passion fruit pavlova and my absolute favorite the coconut tapioca pudding! All prepared in house. Other must try’s are the Rockstar shrimp which is fried popcorn shrimp, iceberg lettuce, sweet chili sauce, lime. Both shrimp and veggie pan fried dumplings, the rooster wings and the late great lemongrass mussels. My hands down favorite dish had to the steak frittes which comes szechuan maitre'd butter, french fries, spicy mayo! Honorable mention on their lunch menu for me is the Bahn Mi sandwich My wife loves the Vietnamese crepe - This is a must try if offered, this was made famous and can be seen featured in one of the episodes of Beat Bobby Flay! Where the chef took down the world renown celebrity chef to beat Bobby Flay! In short a great spot to have a nice date, or even celebrate a birthday! And on nice days you can sit outside in their outdoor patio area.“

“The food at L'Ostal is delicious. The maitre d' is very attentive and very focused on ensuring everyone has a good gastronomic and overall experience. Staff was attentive and very polite. The chef sent us a complimentary order of the Fugaz bread, which we had not ordered but was a lovely touch as we were first timers at this restaurant. The Cauliflower gratin was honestly heavenly. And I have had a lot of gratin from living in France. My husband ordered the signature gnocchi and i had the Merlu fish (Hake) in a salsa verde with lentils and squash. Both were really well executed. I loved the herb dressing on their green salad (salade verte) as well. We will definitely be going back !“
