Delicious food, friendly staff, and lovely French-style cafe. Eggs Benedict never disappoint! Indoor and outdoor sidewalk seating make it a nice place to stop and eat if youd like a true cafe feel. Decent coffee too! Always a bonus. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a tasty breakfast to start off your day!
Had a delicious brunch at this place on Sunday. I ordered the French onion soup and duck confit and both were very tasty. The server was also very attentive and well versed with the menu
Excellent place for a casual drop in, or by arrangement, whether that's for breakfast, brunch, lunch, a cocktail or dinner. Cannot fault the service at all.. at the bar or restaurant. Friendly, personable, and efficient. Food is really good.. especially the steak & frites. Reasonably priced too, considering it's proximity to Union Square.
This is a nice French restaurant, situated at the corner right by the China Town of SanFrancisco.
The ambience of the entire place is exactly like ones in paris, especially the fact that the owner himself, the grey-haired gentleman, dressed in French chic style, and greeted customers.
Food-wise, it's authentic French cuisine, I ordered Croque Minsieur sandwich, 🥪, which is grilled French ham with cheese melted on top of the toast, the chemistry of these 3 things was just fantastic!!!
Also ordered their Onion Soup Gratine, the caramelised onion 🧅 with Emmenthal cheese, perfect!
Ate here with a group of four with three of us all having croissant sandwiches and the fourth had the French toast. We also ordered a chocolate croissant that we intended to take and eat later but it ended up disappearing first and was really quite good! Our sandwiches were pretty good, definitely not a sandwich we could easily pick up and eat and all opted to use forks and knives to eat them. Sausage was mixed in with the eggs and was basically cut up sausage links like what you might heat and serve at home. These were served with breakfast potatoes that were good although plain. The French toast was very good served with warm blueberries and syrup. I also had a latte served in a mug without a handle (or was it a bowl). We sat a few minutes before 11 AM which is when breakfast ended and were were glad to still be able to order breakfast food.
This place is pretty and charming, restaurant serves non pretentious French food, large variety of wine options and portion servings are really good too.. the house bread is so delicious.
I really enjoyed my breakfast here. Croissant and coffee were awesome. Great vibe.
Incredibly Delicious!
Sweet French taste, pretty good service and good music 🎶 today was a good morning, thanks for be part of it !

This is the perfect place for a low key Sunday morning breakfast, to sit at the window and people watch. The Blackstone eggs Benedict (not pictured) was wonderful. We’ll seasoned and a perfectly made hollandaise, not gloopy at all. Good bloody mary, too. A fluffy madeleine and an espresso is the perfect complement. Very friendly, professional, and attentive service.
Everything was absolutely delicious! My husband said the pasta was better than what he had in Italy! I don’t even like quiche, but their quiche was delicious. The crust was so flaky and buttery. The staff was very attentive. My only complaint is the table size! We had to use the table next to us to be able to accommodate our lunch.
I’m French, and I can tell you the food there is great. Even in a touristic area, you can have real French food with a good atmosphere and great service. Waiters change often, but Lola was the best. Portions are definitely on the American side, so you should definitely try it.
Came in by myself for an espresso martini and IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT. The bartender was so quick, made everything look easy and he is clearly excellent at his job. The restaurant was buzzing at 345pn on a Friday. I went w the deviled eggs and literally inhaled them. Great decision on my part to come here ha!
Great to return after a few years always a solid breakfast / brunch menu with high quality food. The service is relaxed yet attentive. Great location being so close to Union Square and Market Street.
Feels fancy and like a perfect place to have a quiet contemplative moment, or a glass or wine with friends. I took my 10 year old after an afternoon window shopping in Union Square. She felt so sophisticated and loved the experience. Even though it was just a quick mocha for her wine for me, and fries.
Popped in for cocktails and charcuterie. Loved our drinks, and the cheese and charcuterie options were great. Friendly service and great atmosphere. A great place to chill out in the middle of the bustle of downtown.
Very cool French place with tasty food and wonderful coffee. My cafe au le was ans authentic as it can get outside of France. The eggs Benedict very good and not too heavy. Also, their service is very good and they’re so close to Chinatown :) I’d love to come back next time I’m in SF! They aren’t cheap though ;)
We had brunch here today. Everything was so delicious. The eggs Benedict were amazing. The croque-monsieur was flavorful, and so cheesy. We shared an almond croissant, which was so light, flaky, and full of flavor. Cannot wait to go back, and try more
Our friend made reservations here because he had good memories of visiting over 15 years. The place is charming and timeless. With classic French dishes The pastries looked excellent and wine selection was very nice.
I had the Coq au Vin and it was ok. One friend had the Confit De Canard Aux Lentilles and said it was almost too salty to eat. The pommes frites we’re actually the best thing we ordered. So essentially I wasn’t blown away by the dinner menu.
Perhaps my expectations were set too high given the landmark stature of the restaurant? Maybe I’ll visit earlier next time and try some of those croissants.
Food, service and people is awesome. Best breakfast ever. Double espresso latte and croissant.
