The food was excellent.The only complaint about the building was it was incredibly loud.I think it needed baffles. If I had any complaint about the food, it would be the chicken which was a purchase product, not grilled fresh, but it was still excellent and I still will go back.

Far From France has the way of a Paris restaurant. Very classy inside decor in a great central location in the heart of Wilmington, NC. The lady waitresses dressed in French colors add beauty & charm to the scene. Prime spot for lunch or dinner with superb food quality. Beautiful bakery including treats & delicacies to top it off.

Really cute place. Surprisingly inviting and with an incredible atmosphere. They have the restaurant and a separate bakery area for a quick to-go item.
I tried the espresso with a raspberry dessert and an eclair. It was incredible! I came in their off hours (between lunch and dinner service) so dessert it was! Next time, I'll come back for dinner!

This place is extraordinary, stepping into this place takes me back to when I was over in Europe and the food is amazing. The owners hospitality and humility is above reproach and the waiters and waitress are there before you can even ask. The pastry are above and beyond as well as the bakery server she’s very humble and answers any questions you may have. Over all if you want to try something that will make you feel like you’re in another country this is the place, and to have the French experiences. Thank you to the chefs, waiters/waitresses, bartender and the bakery server. And the boss can’t forget about him.

Wanted to love this place but…. The pastries lack flavor or freshness. I got the ratatouille the veggies I thought were either frozen or cooked with too much heat as it had zero flavor. Tasted like a watered down vegetable soup. I told them to take it back that how much I didn’t like it. Asked for a Caesar salad and the dressing was made with a strong lemony Caesar dressing. I COULD NOT GET THROUGH IT. My mom didn’t like anything but the quiche which was really good. The server was fine. I did have to get her a few times as she was always in the back of the kitchen. The worst unprofessional part of the experience was when the manager or owner asked us how it was. I told him It was ok the ratatouille tasted like maybe frozen vegetables. He sarcastically laughed and said we are French we don’t do anything frozen but ok whatever. Which I replied well don’t ask if you don’t really want to know and then get snippy when I tell you the honest truth after spend 30$ on bad tasting food. You would think his concern would be to make sure I had a better experience after letting him know we thought it was ok. I grew up with culinary chefs and I also have a garden with plenty of veggies. I know what flavor taste like and therefore I know what is lacking in flavor. This place isn’t worth the experience for the price.

Wonderful atmosphere for a birthday party. The 32$ will fill you up and allow you to taste all the delicious sandwiches. Try it out for a new experience! Authentic French persons explain it all to you!

We stopped at the bakery to get some goodies and got a variety of things. Most of the stuff was very good, however, we bought a fruit tart - a couple of bites into it and saw that the raspberries on the tart were moldy. Unfortunately we didn’t notice until a couple of bites in - and it quickly went into the trash. 🤮

My husband and I had the best lunch yesterday! He had the French toast and I had a baguette sandwich. Both meals were spectacular! Wait staff is very friendly. Espresso martini was top notch 👌
