The notable Los Angeles Couple, Babette & Christian are no doubt living a couple’s dream, to be able to work together and married for over 30 years and loving it… In 2012, Babette and Christian birthed A Food Affair, a truly unique French dining experience. From the interior and exterior décor, to your plate, the Royères welcome you to their Provence style home. With Chef Christian managing and orchestrating the back part of the restaurant through his 40+ years of experience in the food industry, and Babette managing the front of the house, these two are the epitome of a successful couple. This dynamic duo is what this dining experience is all about, feeling as if you were already a part of their family.

Oh it was the most wonderful evening! The waiter was on top of things the food was so so good (my date was French and he loved it!). He had escargot and the Salmon. I had the endive salad and the boullibase. We had a bottle of Rose the bread basket and Creme brulee for dessert. Wonderful. Highly recommend. Make reservations and get there early as they ran out of one of the specials we wanted by 8pm. We will be back!

This was a great date night. Such an interesting and relaxing vibe in the restaurant. The waiter was very friendly and all the food was fantastic and rich. The chef even came out to introduce himself and thank us for coming. What a great Valentine’s Day dinner. Definitely recommended

My favorite restaurant! Ordered the bread/butter, French onion soup, truffle fries, duck confit, beef bourguignon, crème brûlée, and Meyer lemon pie (one of my fav desserts)! Everything I’ve tried here is good. You can’t go wrong.

If you’re looking for authentic french cuisine this place is a must. The service and the food are top tier. My favorite is the roasted bone marrow. Also the chef comes out and thank all the guest, what nice gesture.

The lady who greeted us was very warm and welcoming. We had the prime rib eye with Cognac sauce and crème brûlée and iced hibiscus tea in a flask, everything was delicious. After the dinner, the chef came out and greeted us. We had a lovely dinner and will be back.
