Best French Restaurants in Encinitas

Absolute joy to be back again since COVID and found everything keep getting better. Amazing culinary skills and presentation; impeccable service and professional service team. Harold our server was passionate and knowledgeable about the food being served - rarely seen these days. Thank you !!

The food and service were outstanding! Julien was our server. He was delightful, both welcoming and professional. We shared the daily special appetizer of chicken liver mousse…delicious. The cheese puffs were breathtaking…the texture of a fine popover. I had Coq au Vin, which was amazing!! We brought our own fine Burgundy wine and the meal was simply perfect.

This could be one of the best restaurants altogether that I have ever been to! Great service, delicious food, a terrific menu and engaged and pleasant servers. My wife and I have decided that this will be our absolute “Go To” restaurant for sure!!

Amaya is always a great spot, we enjoy going for brunch and sitting on the terrace. Besim provides excellent service and always makes us feel welcome! There is no better place for a relaxing and beautiful location to enjoy with your family or a large group.

A great concept but very limited menu. Removed a favorite-the squash-and substituted it with an easier to prepare dish. Five skinny slices of Prager Brothers bread for $4.00 was excessive.
