I'll call it a 3.5, but give them the 4 star because they were nice. Service was nice and very friendly. 5/5 Atmosphere was interesting. Tiny place, super casual. Would have liked to sit on the patio, but space was limited. 3.5/5 Food -. I really liked the complementary bread...but I was also very hungry. The escargot was good. The 16 oz steak was fine, nothing special at all. Pate was good. And the scallops were fine. Price - The food is very simple and casual. But the price is a little closer to something that would be higher end. 2/5 for value.
We came in on Black Friday night and started with that day’s special vegetable soup and the classic escargots. The soup is top notch, well-textured creamy base with a subtle lift of a special mixed vegetable taste. The flavor the escargots is at the lighter end of the spectrum. Be sure to leave some of the juices in the shell so that you can add them on while you are chewing their bigger than average escargots. Steak frites medium rare and ris de veau rôti roasted veal sweetbread are followed to wrap up the night. The thinner cut of the ribeye brings a more delicate tasting experience, the peppercorn sauce compensates well with the meat and most importantly - not too heavy. The offal flavor of the sweetbread is perfectly muted by the sauce, leaveing us only the joy of the tender and creamy mouthfeel. However, the best part of both entrees is no doubt the sautéed vegetable. Cooked to a perfect temperature, from just a day-to-day potato to morel mushroom, all the juice and freshness of each vegetable are held and packed with well-balanced flavor at the same time. In hindsight, we definitely recommend try out their sautéed vegetable dish if they have one on their menu of the day you visit. The dessert menu is relatively short but full of highlights, the floating island we ordered is definitely worth a try. The light mouthfeel from the briefly cooked floating egg whites compensates very well with the sweetness from sugar and vanilla. Service is amazing, fits perfectly with their comfort bistro vibe. Last but not least, please, drink some wine when you are in a french restaurant. RÊVE Bistro gets rewarded as Michelin Bib Gourmand 2021. Just like what this award suppose to be, this is truly one of the top if not the best reasonably-priced french restaurants in San Francisco Bay Area.
If you want to feel like you've been transported to Paris, Reve serves the best bistro food in the Bay Area - hands down. Every one of the many meals I've eaten there has been memorable, but the latest one was to die for - their recent winter menu additions are fantastic. We started with garlicky, buttery bread dipping required escargot and melt in the mouth gougeres, before feasting upon beautifully tender veal sweetbreads and the most deeply flavored and comforting mushroom risotto I've ever had with the addition of an extremely generous - see photo! - shaving of black truffles, a steal at $20 add on All of the staff and owners are lovely, and they have a thoughtfully curated and decently priced wine list with some hidden gems you'd struggle to find at retail. Go feast on their winter menu and stumble home with your wallet a little lighter, but your stomach and heart immeasurably happier.
What an unexpected, yet wonderful experience!!! The food was outstanding and the service was awesome.... Thank You, Arlene, for being such a fantastic server!!! We totally enjoyed having you and just want to commend you for the outstanding attention you paid to us!! Also, special thanks to Laura, who made our accommodations so pleasant! This "Gem" is so welcomed!! The food is absolutely delicious and the presentation is A-1!! Four of us enjoyed dinner on Saturday and we weren't disappointed... what a lovely experience we had!! Anxiously awaiting our next visit..
This is a hidden gem in a little strip mall. The outside patio is lovely and the night we were there, they had live music. It was really wonderful except… through no fault of their own, there was a power outage in parts of Lafayette. We were the first reservations at 5:00 and they said they could set everyone cold dishes until the generator arrived. We figured we were early enough so we took our chances. We ordered drinks and appetizers and enjoyed the beautiful evening and atmosphere. We had a nice table, but unfortunately it was near the generator. Luckily the music helped. We ordered salads. It would be awhile for the equipment to fire up so we didn’t wait to order a hot dish. The dinner and server were nice, but I would expect a nice restaurant like this to compensate us for the inconvenience. We stayed to give them the business, but Maybe being offered something complimentary would have been a nice gesture for the inconvenience and loud experience. Just something small would have been nice; the bread, appetizers or dessert… something?
Patio dining perfection! Our party of five came here to celebrate a birthday and they made it so very special. Arlene's service was impeccable, every dish delicious, the whole team friendly. We'll be back! Dietary restrictions: Tons of gluten free options. Menu is well marked, servers knowledgeable about ingredients. They offer a GF baguette!
We celebrated our wedding anniversary. We were received warmly with a personalized greeting card, and the experience continued to great! The food was awesome, service was great! A lovely and warm dining experience!Food: 5/5
The service is wonderful and food is exceptional. Since we had gone to celebrate our anniversary, they added some extra touches to the dessert and even gave us a card signed by the staff.. this was super sweet of them.. highly recommend Vegetarian options: Vegetarian friendly options available
Paul is an experienced French chef. We have been there many times and the food is consistently good, artfully presented. Highly recommended.
The mushroom risotto was amazing, the ribeye was underwhelming and the iles flottantes deserts was out of this world. Two disappointments was we sat inside and clearly the service team was not used to having guests indoors as they were very loud in the way they communicated with each other....and the biggest surprise was when the server took my wine $700 retail and decanted it out of sight...I've never seen that happen before. I hate to leave a 3 star as I really love what they do here, and while it's normally my happy place my last two experiences yesterday and 4 days ago left me a little disappointed.
