Best French Restaurants in Fort Point Channel

utter perfection. french onion soup, steak frites (impeccably cooked), chocolate mousse... utter perfection. service was great too, multiple people came by to clear plates and fill wine glasses. if there was ever 5/5 stars it was my experience at aquitaine.

Bistro du Midi is a wonderfully intimate restaurant with phenomenal food, drinks, and staff. We arrived on time for our reservation and were notified they were running behind but that they would collect us if we sat at the bar. The bartender was kind and attentive and as time passed, we were gently invited back to be seated and allowed time to finish our drinks. We ordered the Valentine’s Day menu, a choice selection through 5 courses. All of the options were phenomenal, we started with a small soup (tea cup sized) which we had anticipated for a larger tasting menu, but by course 3 we were hitting the wall! Portions were outstanding just small enough to be able to finish the next dish but large enough to feel very full by the end! We also ordered the cocktails oui chef, a lemon flavored cocktail and (please forgive me I forgot the name) a smoky combination of mezcal and cognac. Both of which were outstanding! Overall, we felt very satisfied! Being a big event for us we felt that the splurge was worth it, however, candidly it was a *very* large splurge so be prepared!

We went for a Valentine’s dinner. I was a little nervous about it since it was also a Friday night. I usually steer clear of restaurants on the big holidays since it’s not always the best experience. But Frenchie knocked it out of the park. Everything was perfectly executed from the decor to the service to the food. Speaking of the food, the truffle risotto is Amazing!

I dont go to fancy restaurants as often as I should. It makes me nervous but it was for me and my wife’s Valentines dinner date I had planned a month in advance. We went there and everything was perfect. The servers were kind and helped us with what we needed. It was definitely a memory that will last a lifetime that I am thankful for. The food was all cooked perfectly and I couldnt find anything to complain about even if I tried.

Wonderful experience. We love Ma Maison. We also celebrated our 20 anniversary on Valentine's day and Ma Maison made us feel special.
