| Zagat 2013 Review: | "Magnificent" French-American fare by chef-owner Didier Poirier keeps "longtime customers" coming back to this "quaint" Craftsman cottage in Downtown Ventura that's "peaceful" and "intimate" with seating by the fireplace and "friendly" service |
| Zagat 2012 Review: | Francophiles get their fix at this brasserie in Ventura where charming chef-owner Didier Poirier plates traditional, satisfying French-American fare in a beautiful century-old Craftsman house with romantic country décor. |
| Zagat 2011 Review: | It's like a "journey to the French countryside without the airfare" at this cute Ventura brasserie situated in a "historic home on the hillside" and overseen by a "skilled" chef/owner Didier Poirier, who uses "high quality" ingredients in his "well-priced French American offerings". "Fine service" rounds out the experience; it exceeds expectations. |

The food was absolutely amazing! We have a dog and the owner/chef was wonderful to her. They let us sit on the patio and even brought her out a water bowl. I had the goat cheese salad (best goat cheese I've ever had) and the mussels and butter/wine/garlic sauce for dinner (amazing! I ate every single one!). My husband had the escargot and the special fish dish. He's a foodie and he said it was amazing! We would recommend this to everyone! |
| Diner - Ventura Zagat Review: |
Our second visit to this nicely decorated restaurant located in an old two story house in downtown Ventura; very good French influenced food--the onion soup to start with was excellent. I had shrimp in a nice garlic sauce with vegetables for an entree--very good. My wife had duck in a peppercorn sauce, which she liked. For dessert, we shared a poached pear with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce--great! Very good service enhanced a fine dinner. |

Great food. Great prices. Didier (the owner) comes and hangs out with you (if you want). Fireplace... just a nice place to eat. Prices are reasonable, mission style interior very homey. |
