Best French American Restaurants in Reston

This was our first visit. We started with the four gras and the beet salad, both delicious. We had the lamb for two, prepared with Meyer lemon. It was perfectly balanced, the lemon added to the dish instead of overpowering it and the meat was a perfect medium rare. The staff was attentive and friendly, especially the bartender. We would like to go back on a night when they have their tasting menu available. The only thing that was off was that it was very smoky. I think one of their exhaust fans is broken.

Outstanding!! I normally do not like to go to restaurants on days they have special menus. However, the Valentine's choices were wonderful! The lobster and tuna appetizers were delicious, as were the Branzino entree and the luscious raspberry tarts! Julio's service was so refined and helpful, as usual. And James opened a lovely burgundy and provided a delightful evening surprise!! I love going here. I wish I could enjoy the cuisine and service more often. My go-to spot for top flight dining and service in the region.

It was our first visit to the restaurant. Colleagues who had gone there all said it is an amazing restaurant. The restaurant is advertised as a "Franco-American cuisine". We had expected a French style restaurant. In fact, the atmosphere is more that of an American café. The tables are basic bare metal tables, with no tablecloths. The noise level was loud but not high enough that it would interfere with conversations. We could hear each other. The prices on the menu were on par with other good restaurants in the area. We did not find the menu particularly French, but it was an interesting menu, with many choices without being overwhelming. The quality of the food was excellent. It was extremely good. A++ In fact, it was one of the best restaurants we have visited in the area. The service was excellent as well. Our waitress was wonderful, very attentive and helpful in addition to being very nice. We were pleasantly surprised by the entire experience. We will definitely revisit the place. I highly recommend it.

What a special restaurant. It’s where I met my future wife and we come back to celebrate

We loved the cozy atmosphere, especially on a wet winter day. Our servers were polite (there were several) and the food was delicious! We would definitely return and recommend.
