Le Reve translates to "the dream" in English! And our first visit there yesterday can truly be described as a delicious dream! On a beautiful sunny Saturday late afternoon, approaching the restaurant on the quaint village streets, we felt like we were in a small European town - sidewalk cafe tables on every street, people all around enjoying the shops and the beautiful riverfront nearby! Shortly after being seated at our table, a pleasant waitress took our drink orders and explained today's specials. We already were concerned about making a decision among all the tantalizing menu choices....and yet a few more specials made that even tougher! We started with the delicious Crostini Brie and the Liver Mousse appetizers - out of this world. Perfectly crisped French bread and a delectable fusion of flavors. Next were the main entrees - the lamb loin special, the bouillabaisse, the ribs, and the stuffed pheasant breast. Every one so artfully presented, and perfectly prepared! There were so many other items we could have also chosen - so those will definitely wait for our next visit (hopefully soon) so we can further explore the menu. Believe me - it will take many visits to determine how delicious the rest of their expansive menu options taste!! We were cautioned to leave room for the five-star desserts, and were so thankful we did! Raspberry Dacquoise, Paris Brest, Napoleon, and Fresh Fruit Tart were our 4 choices! Even that decision was tough given all the great offerings! Again, such unbelievable flavors and textures to enjoy - all perfectly and lovingly prepared. The beautiful display case on the way to our table had already given us a sneak preview of how epic their dessert selection would be, and we were not disappointed! From beginning to end, this meal was unforgettable. We cannot wait for the next visit (visits!) to sample the many more items we wished we had room for in our stomachs to try. Thanks so much for this experience - it's always so awesome to try a new place and be so pleasantly surprised! Can't wait to see you again!

The food was all delicious and tasty, I just wished the foie gras a thicker slab and the escargot serve in its shell. My entree was the lamb shank which was fall of the bone sumptuous. Service was good. Ambiance cozy and lively.

Came here for a nice dinner, and I left excited to come back for their lunch! Dying to try some of their sandwiches and the French onion soup. As far as the dinner goes, we had a nice experience. Small but cute restaurant and excellent service. My only complaint is that I felt like our table was on top of the one next to us. The food was very good though! Tried the charcuterie and the paella. I have had better charcuterie boards, but it was tasty nonetheless. I've never had salmon on a paella before- it was unique and delicious!

A lovely restaurant in the heart of tosa. A great atmosphere and delicious food! Make sure to make reservations in advance, as this is a date night favorite!

Would love to rate the patissiere desserts, but couldn't get anyone to serve us at the bakery counter. 3 people were behind the counter at different times. None of them could make eye contact with us or even say, "We will be with you in just a moment." After standing there for a while, I asked a woman behind the counter if she could help us. She said that anyone behind the counter could help up and then just walked away. My friend and I just looked at each other, shocked. We then walked out.

Food is good but parking is horrid. When there is space the municipality requires you back in the space which is difficultParking: I would avoid this place because the parking is horrid.

Reliably delicious and authentically French lunch and dinner menus. The pastries are not my favorite; the tart crusts are rock hard and the fillings are overly sugary. But the cookies, breads and macarons are outstanding.

Dexter Klein

Very good pastries, if you go I recommend the macarons, the macarons are the perfect mix between texture and flavor. The big macaron thing is also very good. would definitely recomend.

There are seldom few pleasures as a place that makes you feel like all is right with the world, where all your troubles melt away, where you are at ease and comfortable, whilst also filled with a great love for life that inspires you. Le Reve is that place.I’ve missed coming here since I moved to a different city, and yet, every time I come here, no matter the weather, or how busy and crowded, no matter the traffic or the mess, I always find myself so happy to be here, I could cry. It’s not JUST that they have the best Saumon Benedict, or croissants, or crepes; not just that the staff are always professionally welcoming at their worst, and delightfully engaging hosts at their best; not just that the pastry case is varied and exciting (though that IS a part of it)But there’s a certain je ne sais quoi that makes Le Reve perfect. Even if you don’t like French cuisine, I guarantee you’ll be happy here.
