Joined for dinner on a Thursday night. The restaurant has a modern-bistro sensibility with subtle rustic touches and a nice balance between elegance and comfortable warmth. We sat in the back section of the main dining area with the leather banquettes. Tables did feel too cramped, and the it wasn’t a busy night but it would be difficult to get out from your seat on a busy one. Service was okay, not the most friendly and warm. Food was very good. The escargot was delicious, the piece of sausage added to each shell elevates the flavor. The grilled whole dorade was very fresh, meat was tender with a subtle sweetness. But the charred broccolini was very bitter for some reason. House steak was okay. Would love to try the lamb next time. Overall a cute bistro with great food.

I tried to get a healthy dish so ordered the socca with multi grains and fried egg, but unfortunately it wasn’t that great. Also someone else in my party got a French toast but it was basically a large shared dessert instead of a brunch entree and he could really eat it, would not recommend getting that as an entree. The bread was hard and crusty!
The service and ambiance were nice though.

Had a spontaneous date night here and it turned out to be the perfect spot. The food was great and I especially appreciated the portions considering the affordable price point. The highlight for me were the fried artichokes, they were so delicious and memorable and so was the salad verte!

Came for lunch on a date! It’s a cute and elevated spot.
Get the Trout Po’ Boy- you won’t regret it. The dressing on it is so delicious, I’d love to know how they make it. The French bread is thick so if you’re looking for a lighter meal, then maybe skip.
They have a very nice outdoor patio in the back! Very nice to sit under the sky / in the sunlight, but there are only 2 tables in the direct sun. The other “backyard” seating is actually under a big awning.

Love the decor and patio.
Don’t like the tiny bathroom.
Been here twice. First time for a birthday dinner pictures are from that. Food was good. I loved the coco nojito (no achl) drink. Almost creamy. Simple sweet. Had raw meat for the first time ever here and it actually tasted good. Now I like steak tartare! The prawns are best item on menu imo. Service was good. Attentive.
Second visit I went with a girlfriend. Food was same quality but service was terrible. Felt like the waitress was actively avoiding our table. Got to the point my friend and I were making bets on whether or not she’d come to our table and we won every time. There was a point there was only one table out on patio and our table. She went to check on THAT table came back inside WALKED PAST US and did not check on us for another 30min.
Felt extremely purposeful and rude.
Don’t think I’ll be back but it is a cute restaurant.

Cute and cozy, Great service, great food. Sardines and slow roasted lamb ribs are my favorite. If you like dessert, Do not miss the Banana Foster Profiterole!

Incredible!!! The lentil soup was amazing and the French fries are almost better than in France. A must when you are in Brooklyn. Thank you!

Very pleasant experience!
The service was excellent, and the food was even better.
We loved pretty much everything we ordered, and a huge thank you to the staff — I had accidentally left my sunglasses behind, and they kindly returned them to me the next day.

Was expecting more of the reviewed options like the steak frites to be on the brunch menu but seems like they do a different set. Crab Louie was pretty good though. Had service at the bar and was attentively taken care of although I was also inadvertently able to hear all the team gossip. May come back to try their dinner menu.

Our group of six had a wonderful brunch at French Louie. Everyone enjoyed their food, but the Crab Louie was the table favorite for sure. Nice atmosphere inside, and next time I think I’d book a table in their back garden, it looked lovely. Service was efficient, but a times could have been more attentive. I did very much appreciate their flexibility to adjust our reservation less than 24 hours in advance. Reservations likely required for weekend brunch as there was a large crowd trying to get a table as we left.
