Best French Restaurants in Riverside

A wonderful Christmas Eve dining experience . The first , main course, and desert were well presented and delicious. The service was great too. Wines were excellent. Will make this restaurant dining experience through out 2026.

I frequent Petite Vie... I've never been disappointed. The team, the food, and the atmosphere are always a special treat.

When I want to go to Paris, I'lll go to Le Bouchon...service, fppd ambiance ...it's almost like being in Paris..

Really good experience with great food. Loved the free bread service which you never get anywhere anymore! Linguine and clams was a little too garlicky for me, but the mussels, lamb, small bites, and cauliflower gratin were fantastic. Service was great too.

The ambiance is so lovely during Christmas and so festive. We sat at the Bar with Our martinis with blue cheese olives waiting for a table as we wanted to be seated by the Christmas tree. We began with oysters and the wagyu carpaccio, pleasing aesthetic, but even more delish. My Husband had the ribeye, which was a special and we ordered 3 sides; Gouda macaroni and cheese served in a copper crock, the haricots verts and frites, all so delish. I tasted his ribeye, but enjoyed all of the sides. My Husband had the raspberry sorbet for dessert accompanied by an espresso martini which I had as well. The piece of resistance (not spelled as pronounced) was it was 1/2 price wine on the bottles. We enjoyed a bottle with dinner and even brought another bottle to Our hotel to enjoy.
