Reviews
The service was equally exceptional. Jackson and Ken were incredible — warm, attentive, and genuinely a step ahead the entire night. They anticipated what we needed before we even knew we needed it, which is rare and so appreciated.
And the food… absolutely unreal. Every dish was plated like a work of art, but it wasn’t just beautiful — it was next level delicious. Standouts for us were the beef tartare, mafaldine pasta, wagyu pasta, oeufs and eggs, and the lamb — each one better than the last. And I have to call out the roasted potatoes, because they may have been the best thing on the table — such a creative, unique presentation and unbelievably good.
This place is a total gem and I genuinely cannot wait to go back. Highly recommend.
Chef Travis’s talent was showcased in every single bite. Every course was bright, light, rich, decadent, savory, thoughtful, precise, and full of flavor. The lobster and bouillabaisse were exceptional, and the black truffle hazelnut gnocchi is easily the best thing I’ve ever eaten. Our citrus dessert was ohhh too good!
Also valet was very accommodating, thank you Tyler.
If you haven’t made a reservation yet, I can’t recommend it enough. Thank you to everyone who made this Sunday night one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a very long time, the entire evening was incredible and I can’t wait to come back!
Shoutout to Ashlynn for amazing service, Lizbeth for being so attentive, and Natalie for absolutely crushing the cocktails. Truly no notes.
The leeks were a standout. I love when a humble vegetable gets its moment. The beef tartare was also unreal with those thin, buttery toasts.
Cocktails were fantastic!! The truffle pasta was delicious though the truffle definitely stole the show. We’ll be back for the lemon pasta next time. The duck and potatoes were both perfectly done.
Great food, great service, great drinks. Can’t wait to come back.
Shout out to chef Swikard, Kevin, Clyde and team for the amazing experience.
The wine pairings were a true highlight, expertly crafted to elevate each dish. The sommelier’s recommendations added depth and complexity to the already stunning food.
The food was nothing short of extraordinary, with each dish showcasing the chef’s creativity and skill. The Gnocchi course with white truffles was a standout a sublime marriage of flavors and textures that left us wanting more. The presentation was equally impressive, with each plate a work of art.
Fleurette delivered an unforgettable dining experience, making it the perfect way to ring in the New Year. The atmosphere was elegant and sophisticated, with a warm and inviting ambiance that made us feel right at home.
If you’re looking for a truly exceptional dinner in San Diego, look no further than Fleurette. Bravo!

Service
A few kinks to be worked out, but this restaurant has been open for 6 days, so some grace is needed. Overall, very knowledgeable staff armed with recommendations, professionalism, and kindness. They’re very attentive with water refills and changing out plates and silverware. They weren’t able to recognize my birthday because they opened so recently and didn’t have cards ready, but that’s not a big deal.
Drinks
We had the Del Mar and the Provence. Both were light, refreshing, and unique.
Food
Overall, very impressive. It’s a nice spin on French food that doesn’t feel as inaccessible as purely French restaurants because of the Mediterranean element. The absolute standout menu item is the Oeufs & Eggs. We were blown away. None of the other menu items were regrets, but they also weren’t nearly as show-stopping as the Oeufs & Eggs, which is both beautifully presented and delicious. See my photos for what else we got, but in short, other great items were the Garganelli alla Genovese, the pissaladière, and the roast golden chicken. The chicken does have a bit of a rosemary flavor, but I happen to love rosemary. The sauce and the crispy skin are amazing.
Fleurette vs Callie
It’s inevitable to compare sister restaurants. I do enjoy Mediterranean food more than French food, so overall Callie is the winner, but even at its early stages, Fleurette holds its own. The astounding Aleppo Chicken at Callie is hard to beat, but you could say the same about the Oeufs & Eggs at Fleurette. Ultimately, they’re different, and they’re both worth it.
Recommended?
Yes. I will be back.
However, the food is on the saltier side and unfortunately, the main dish of Tagliolini was far too salty and it was increasingly difficult to ingest with each bite. Vacherin dessert was light and refreshing.
Be aware for the 4% automatic surcharge to the bill.
Will come back again to give it another try in a year
