The French Gourmet

This was one of the best restaurant experience I have ever had. We happened on this place while on vacation and was skeptical but as soon as we walked in we were greeted with happiness and excitement. We sat at the restaurant and had the most delicious eggs Benedict and French toast. The prices were very reasonable and the atmosphere was formal but unassuming. A Our waiters were an absolute delight and made me want to stay in San Diego just to go to their restaurant again. This is a must.

I've had brunch and dinner here a couple times, and for restaurant week as well. The food is delicious, but the main focus of this review is the pastries. I probably visit sporadically from once a month to once a week. This is my go-to place for pastries!! I always get the fruit and cheese danishes and cinnamon roll with raisins (comes in regular or mini sizes) along with some cake pieces. I especially enjoy the lemon buttercream, fruit tarts, and the pralinsko.

Wow!!! That is practically what every single guest said after my wedding. The service was impeccable, the staff was the nicest, and very professional. The bartender did the most amazing accents to all of our specialty drinks - curling all the rinds in the old fashioned just right and simply making the perfect drink of whatever was ordered. As the Bride and Groom we never had an empty glass or plate and the moment our Wedding Ceremony had ended the staff made sure all of the Wedding Party had food to enjoy during pictures along with drinks. The buffet was amazing as we were able to offer our guests three entree meat choices and every single one of them was juicy and delicious. Each time a guest would get up a server would fold their napkin (yes, that is right!) My guests all remarked on how classy the evening felt and that we had really thought about our guests. But the craziest part is that I had contacted 7 catering companies to ensure I could get the most for my budget and French Gourmet was one of the more economically friendly catering choices in San Diego. I was so appalled by what the other catering companies were listing as there prices that when my husband and I planned our first tasting with French Gourmet we ended up signing up with them that day because we just couldn't believe that any catering company could be any better. Throughout the entire wedding planning, French Gourmet excelled in customer service and I couldn't be any happier about how our Wedding turned out.

Very good food and service and reasonable prices. The parking is limited. Make a reservation for the weekend since it can get crowded. They also have a great bakery
