They have vegan options, but the quality is not great. Maybe their nonvegan food has better quality, don't know.

The french onion soup is perfection. Don't skip an appetizer board. The tamales and empanadas are delicious, as are the fillings for the crepes. I'm not a fan of the buckwheat flour used to make the crepes, but it doesn't stop me from returning every time I'm in the area. The atmosphere is perfect for a solo dinner, bringing my daughter and her roommate on family weekend, or a cozy date night. The playlist and volume are so thoughtful and the staff are kind and attentive.

Beautiful place for a delicious dinner on the patio. The servers were very helpful and friendly. The food was very tasty. Start your meal with the French onion soup (you can’t go wrong with the rest of the menu). Bon appetit & que rico!

This was such a great little spot. Tracy was awesome! I love the mix of French and Latin cuisine. I've got a couple of picky eaters with me, but they took the chance to make my happy. All of the food was delicious!

TLDR: Go somewhere else.
Picture it: Wednesday night before the Fourth and Black Mountain is busy. We walk in at 6:30, expecting there to be a little wait. The smells of garlic and butter knock us over, but we are not deterred. Even as we look around and notice… there are only two full tables in the whole restaurant, we try to catch the hostesses eye.
Nope, she ignores us completely. A minute passes while we patiently wait for her to wrap up her call - still no acknowledgment that we are standing in front of her - and then she waves someone down from the kitchen. They look at my family of five and then at the hostess and say, “do you have a reservation?”
“We don’t,” I say pleasantly. She says they are full. Um, what now? Is it a 7pm rush? They took one look at my family and turned us away. It was embarrassing and rude. My kids wanted to compare the Black Mountain crepes with the ones they loved from Paris, but no go.
Maybe just don’t go with kids? We’ll never know.

The smallish, hiden gem in Black Mountain, serving wonderfully tasty French cusine, served by friendly people
It's an old house converted into a neighborhood restaurant. Not low cost, but not expensive. Crepes are excellent, Latin dishes are good. Friendly staff

We had another great meal at La Guinguette. The crepes are fantastic and their wine selection is excellent. When in the Black Mountain area, be sure to give La Guinguette a try, whether for crepes, empanadas, or tamales.

Outstanding little unique spot. We started with a couple of empanadas as appetizer and were pleasantly surprised but the flaky, buttering crust and flavorful filling. For the mains we both had a crepe. The La Forestiere crepe was packed with freshly cooked mushrooms and sauce and the La Stroganoff was filled with tasty beef and sauce. These were some of the best crepes we have ever had! We ordered a French onion soup which was freshly prepared and served piping hot with a wonderful cheese crust. We also got a pork tamale to share which was deliciously prepared in traditional fashion however, it was moist and flavorful unlike the majority of tamales I’ve ever had. In summary, this quaint little place just off of the beaten path is a great choice for any occasion and for sure the type of food to have you making noises while you eat!

Such a cute gem. French onion soup was 10/10. The tamales and empanadas were great. The chicken in both the tamales and empanadas were very dry. Would recommend the ground beef empanadas and the pork tamales.
