Classic French dishes, wine & cocktails with Parisian flair


























"Has opened a handy new patio just outside its strip-mall space in time for Bastille Day, where diners can order chef Ludo Lefebvre’s iconic Le Big Mec burger, escargot, and steak frites." - Matthew Kang

"If you're hankering for a slice of Paris, this tiny Hollywood bistro fits the bill. Nary a table, the room features a row of stools by a ledge on the wall, and more stools at the marble topped bar. French music plays on the stereo and conversation is lively and unrestrained. Chef Ludo Lefebvre, who trained with Alain Passard, Pierre Gagnaire, Marc Meneau, does classic French food like few others in LA. The Burgundy escargot in butter and garlic is as delicious as you'd hope, as are the steak frites and the croque madame. This is a great spot if you're dining alone, or if you and a friend think nothing of waiting an hour for a seat at the bar. Because space is tight and seats are stools, it's also not the kind of place that you'll want to linger over coffee and dessert. However, as far as Hollywood restaurants go, it's fairly affordable, the food is tasty, and the vibe is magnifique." - Celeste Moure


"Open and operating non-stop from noon until late night, this narrow room is always full and the counter is always cramped. While the setting may not sound overly comfortable, there is a focus on service, which makes every meal here a pleasant experience from start to finish.The French hip-hop in the background eschews tradition, but the cooking does the exact opposite. This menu is a canon of bistro favorites, like garlicky escargots de Bourgogne, steak frites with mustard sauce and what may be the city’s best omelet. Try their "Big Mec," a double cheeseburger with bordelaise and house sauce and fries." - Michelin Inspector
"Located inside a strip mall at Highland and Melrose, this tiny French bistro is about the size of a small bedroom. Now just imagine that bedroom also had a bar. It’s loud, cramped, and you’ll definitely have someone hovering near you while you eat. But after you try the chicken confit, burger, or their silky-smooth omelette, you’ll learn to love the organized chaos. If you’re looking for more space though, there’s also a large front patio or a massive second location in Sherman Oaks." - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore
"Scientists still don’t understand the exact machinations behind it, but French food seems almost tailor-made to be consumed sexily. It must have something to do with butter. This tiny hallway of a restaurant in Hollywood has everything you need for a nuit érotique - dim lighting, close quarters, and gloriously crispy frites. Maybe you’re wearing a slinky black outfit. Perhaps there’s a beret at play. Either way, you should probably watch this clip from An Extremely Goofy Movie to prepare." - kat hong
