Best French American Restaurants in San Gabriel

Perch LA has been around for a long time. This was the first time we had dinner there. I didn’t know what to expect. It was outstanding. Ambience :  beautiful views of downtown LA. We sat outside , which I I recommend. They have heaters, but you should still wear warm clothes to be comfortable . The inside is dark, old and looks rundown. The inside needs upgrading. We had Chilean Seabass , which was outstanding. We don’t like risotto.(I think that’s what it comes with) so we substituted it with mixed vegetables. Amazing. We also had a great lettuce salad, and truffle cheese fries. Yum Yum. This was plenty of food for two people to share. And, delicious ice cream with coffee. Great service. Thank you .

Some of the dishes were phenomenal, like the Brussel sprouts side dish, sauce for the salmon, the focaccia bread with butter/honey, and berries with Chantilly cream. Ambience was cozy, felt like being in a different country. Fun.

Had a wonderful time celebrating my partner's birthday. The food was delicious, the service was great, and the restaurant's ambiance was perfect. We loved the location and the decorations, it's a beautiful restaurant, it reminded me of old L.A. We will definitely be coming back for more.

1st class service and food. Comfy, intimate setting. Pricey. Hard to find.
