We've had dinner and brunch and both were excellent.
Next we want to try happy hour.
We were able to park at Balboa Park and walk over otherwise street parking is limited.
There is a full bar, inside and outside seating.
Outside is more casual.

Hi Beth, Thank you! We can wait to see you for happy hour!

The restaurant is in nice location, the interior look is ok.
I have certain expectations as I love French food a lot! Unfortunately the food didn’t meet my expectations.
There is very rare vegan options, I would not consider it as vegan friendly. The flavor combination is strange, heavy fermented olive with non flavor cauliflower, which makes the olive take over the whole plates’ flavor experience. The onion soup, cheese is good quality, the soup itself is a little salty, with soaked bread in, very wired color and texture. The salmon, crispy part is a surprising, side veg and potato are super oily and salt, the plate floated with a whole layer of butter.
Excuse me? Everything is already oily, why need so much butter? Where is the balance and harmony between different ingredients which originally are supposed to be tasteful with different oil level in the same plate? It’s a failure of French cuisine.
Even I enjoyed the certain texture of the salmon, and the rest are overcooked.
Still consider it’s a failure However, if you like American fast food, their food won’t bother your tongue too much.
Rich dance and bounce of oil and salt will bring you the privilege about how American food culture could make French food not taste like French any more The service is pretty nice!

First and foremost, thank you for gracing us with your discerning palate and sharing your gastronomic journey with us.
As veterans of the culinary scene for eight delicious years, it's always a pleasure to welcome guests who appreciate the finer nuances of French cuisine. While we're thrilled to hear that our location and ambiance met your expectations, we're truly sorry to hear that your culinary voyage through France left you feeling adrift.
We take your feedback seriously. In our quest for excellence, we are proud to say the Eater San Diego has graced us with the esteemed title of "Best French Restaurant" three times over.
Yet, even champions occasionally stumble, and it seems our latest performance failed to hit the high notes for you. Regarding the "surprising" crispy salmon and the generous butter, we're thrilled to clarify that the golden pool adorning your salmon was our signature lemon champagne beurre blanc sauce.
We're happy that our service shone amidst the gustatory tempest.
Our team takes immense pride in creating an experience that delights from the moment you step through our doors. We extend our heartfelt gratitude for your patronage and your candid feedback.
We're committed to continuously raising the culinary bar and hope to welcome you back soon!

My friend and I went here for dinner last night.
The place was very pretty and the service was great! I ordered the Boeuf Bourguinon and the French onion soup while my friend ordered the Pan Seared Salmon.
I do wish the portion size was a big bigger for the Bourguinon but I filled up on bread and soup before so it was still fine.
