French Restaurants near Bristol, RI

“We had a terrific time at the Franklin and we are going back. We were warmly greeted by Neely at the door. We had amazing experience with Taylor at the bar. Very helpful, friendly and fun. They are so fortunate to have Cara as their restaurant manager as she sets the friendly tone and passion for extraordinary service. It has a beautiful interior design. We enjoyed the superb food. Can't wait to return tonight. Pat“

“We came in on a Thursdy night. There may have been one other couple there on our arrival, but eventually we were alone. We had drinks, then a 3-course dinner. I ordereded the duck confit that was entirely correct and tasty. My lady guest ordered salmon; woefully under cooked, with string beans virtually raw. (I gave feedback to the waiter.) This outpost of Parisian culture is SO imortant in our downscale Rhode Island dining scene. I really hope they can fill up on weeknights,, and that the chef can get some coaching on how to produce truly Parisian food. I want to add that the service was entirely professoinal -- and welcome.

“Outstanding food. Great service. Ample bar menu. Cozy atmosphere. Always return.“

“What fun! A small, informal restaurant with authentic French food, thanks to the French chef. The specials — like rack of lamb or monkfish — are especially good. It’s BYOB, so you can bring and enjoy a bottle of fine wine without having to pay a huge mark-up. If you forget to bring wine, you can pop over to the wine store just two doors down, on the other side of the ice cream shop. But you won’t have room for ice cream after a delicious dinner at Plouf Plouf.“
