Best Contemporary French Restaurants in Temple City

The bus people were a bit overzealous refilling water and removing plates 😄

My best friend and I had dinner at this beautiful restaurant, which I would recommend to everyone! The decor and ambiance are warm, modern, and inviting. The aromas from the kitchen greet you the minute you walk in. At that moment, you know you have arrived at the right place. The libations: Drinks: We ordered the spritz and a dirty martini complete with a sidecar and the Japanese house vodka--yummy! The passionfruit spritz is fruity and dry at the same time! The dinner: Aioli grani is a medley of veggies from the farmer's market and tasty aioli. Sweet potato gratin--If this dish were a person, I would marry it. Wow! The balance between the sweet, cheesy, and savory consistency and flavor makes this my favorite of the night. Dry-aged burger and fries: The default for the meat is medium rare, which is a must! The grilled jalapenos added a nice kick! The French fries come with a dijon aioli and curry ketchup are tasty! The service? It was excellent and added much to the overall dining experience.

We had a wonderful time celebrating Thanksgiving at the Langham. It's pricey but the quality of the food was very good. Sometimes you don't know how the food will taste at buffets but the food was fresh and tasty. The service was excellent. Loved the jazz trio, they were very talented. Great desserts. I would recommend it if it's in your budget.

Great place for innovative small plates and good wines.

As usual, this was a wonderful evening. The service was great. The food was delicious and the setting, as always, was just this side of magical.
