Simply put, The French Gourmet is the best! We worked with them for our wedding reception. From our initial inquiry to the day... of our event they were kind, attentive, responsive, professional and wonderful to work with. They worked with us to create amenu that we loved and identify the type of service that best suited us. They did a formal walk through before the wedding toensure all details were accounted for. The night of our wedding they were incredible. The entire staff was so professional,quick and kind to everyone at the event. They helped create a romantic and elegant environment through their food presentationand service. The food was absolutely delicious. Numerous guests made it a point to comment on how good the food was. They alsoworked very well with the many vendors that were part of our event. Weddings are so personal and special, The French Gourmethelped make our day memorable and wonderful! I would refer them to any person looking for delicious food and wonderful service,and give them my highest recommendation. Read more
We went for San Diego Restaurant Week 2022. We always like to come back to this cozy little place. We always love ?? their food... and great service. On this time there was a fixed price menu due to the SDRW, but with their best dishes, so it is a good dealto try it. They also have a bakery so you can buy your favorite desserts to take home. We always come back and we usually do onspecial occasions, since we know we'll have a great experience. Read more
Great little place for brunch! We all got the French toast and we all loved it. The three of us also split a bottle of champagne... and got orange and pineapple juice to make our own mimosas at the table. It was all delicious and their outside dining area iscute and cozy with comfortable chairs. I didn’t take any pastries home, but next time I will! Read more
We purchased pastries from the bakery and also ate in the restaurant. The pastries were delicious with the exception of the... macrons. They were too sweet and weren't nearly as good as you would get in Paris. We bought 10 and didn't eat all of them - andwe love macrons. The restaurant was a lovely experience. The staff were relaxed and friendly, totally giving a sense of "settlein and enjoy yourself". The beet/pear salad (which was new to the menu) was a huge hit. I can't tell you the last time I had asalad that I raved about. We had the carpaccio as an appetizer, which was quite nice. My husband had the flatiron steak. Hereally enjoyed it. I ordered the rack of lamb, which was quite good. Both plates had very generous servings. We didn't havedesert. When in San Diego, we will definitely be back. Read more

Patio was perfectly shaded and had just the right amount of breeze! For San Diego Restaurant Week, the $25 lunch was extremely... worth it! The appetizers didn’t stand out as much as the entrees & dessert. We especially loved the Raspberry Bagatelle andEggs Benedict!! The 1/2 Pound Burger and Steak Pommes Frites were also cooked perfectly! Bread basket was delicious too Read more
