    Avocado toast with poached eggs minus the cheese
    Yvette A.

    My husband and I popped in here Sunday afternoon for a bite. I don't like egg yolks and my husband doesn't do cheese, so this sometimes complicates things. But he ordered the avocado toast that comes with 2 poached eggs and I opted for the French onion soup. I couldn't have been happier with our decision. Delicious! Everything was daintily decorated with a vibrant orchid for an extra special presentation.

    Fantastic amount of fries (actually too many fries) not a complaint a positive statement Ham and swiss gently melted - salad was just right. Service 10 stars Ambiance delightful First time for lunch and NOT our last

    The NICE - HAM AND CHEESE
    Tanner G.

    I came to Frenchy's Hideout when they opened, and it stayed pretty mellow during the course of my meal. Their lunch menu leans towards Paninis; however they offer other items like salads. I sat at the bar and got to engage in a nice conversation with the bartender as I enjoyed my lunch. I ordered THE NICE (which is your Classic ham and Swiss, dijon-mayo spread) with a side of fries. The panini had a nice golden toast to it and the fries had a little crisp to them. With that said, my only complaint would be that the lunch menu is a tad more expensive when you're looking at sandwiches. I would like to go again for their brunch and their dinner as the menu items offer a wider range of items. Overall, I enjoyed my lunch, the service was kind, and the ambiance is welcoming.

    Delicious food! The owners really know how to make your experience a great one. Every single dish we had was delicious. The lavender martini was so good! The caviar was to die for. The muscles were so buttery, Frenchy's mom's recipe. We had the crème brûlée for dessert it was the best I've had at a restaurant. I definitely recommend every thing on the menu!

    This place is such a gem. This beautiful and well decorated place in the heart of hillcrest. It will make you feel like you are out of San Diego just coming in. The menu variety comes with the most thought out combinations and I'm so happy I came across this place! The charcuterie you could tell was imported with cuts I've never had before. The wines and even the ingredients in each dish were of top tier. On top of the amazing food, Frenchie and Paola are the most welcoming and sweetest people! This felt beyond a dining event but an entire experience. Will most definitely be back for their Wednesday wine nights!

    Filet Mignon Burger
    Jack M.

    I've visited Frenchy's Hideout, and it's true, he does hide out here, but you really need to look. On my first visit, I came during happy hour, and thoroughly enjoyed the Filet Mignon Burger, and the second time was during brunch where I dove into a French classic, the Croque Madame. Let's just say, both experiences resulted in a very positive experience. The burger was very made and tempted at a beautiful pink medium. The burger came with bacon, greens, onions, with cheese that baked on the burger in a high heat oven. It's those little things that make a burger special. The flavor of the beef up front and personal, which is what you want in a great burger. The bacon was of the thick variety and good quality, as a result it offered, not only great flavor, but a great chew. It was a great burger and quite a mouthful, I may add. The burger came with a heaping pile of well fried crispy and well seasoned fries. The Croque Madame was one of the best I have had in San Diego. It does not come with eggs, so you have to request it for an additional $2.50 fee. Like the filet mignon burger, this too looked great when it arrived. I asked for the eggs to tempted at over medium and the kitchen did not disappoint. The eggs were perfect and offered that nice slow run of the yolk. The meal came with a side of delicious house potatoes. The Croque Madame came filled with a thick black forest ham between the slices of toasted sourdough bread. The béchamel sauce was most excellent and well executed. It was silky smooth with great flavor. It was a great breakfast, and those house potatoes offered a great crispiness and tender center. Well done! Both times, the service was not just super chill, but friendly and helpful. They offer inside seating and a small patio right out in front.

    Pretty conflicted about this place- Came for happy hour because the menu was very attractive - good prices for great options! Made reservations but we were the only ones there- felt a little too intimate. The bartender kept overhearing and inputting in our conversation it was interesting - but the drinks were delicious!! The mussels were simple, good. The bread was very stale and tasted very frozen in my opinion. The truffle fries had real truffle which is nice, and I love the caviar bump options! That was fun. The charcuterie was a miss for us, as you can see the strawberry was the biggest thing on it. The staff and manager seemed very passionate about it all and described to us each item, but the taste was not there for us unfortunately. I am hoping that since we came during happy hour / a weird transition time of the day, it was an off experience in terms of what food they had prepared because it did not taste fresh at all and we felt very exposed in this little place when trying to just hang out and catch up

    Street parking available nearby. Cute place, went for brunch and enjoyed the French onion soup, baguette, and a bloody mary. Everyone at my table enjoyed their meals and want to return.

    Such a cozy spot with some delicious French food!! Owner is very kind and extremely knowledgeable about every single item on the menu including the wine list. Definitely don't miss this spot in Hillcrest!

    Hidden gem with great food -- but mixed first impression My son wanted to try escargot, so we decided to check out Frenchi Hideout in Hillcrest. It truly is a little hidden gem tucked away in the neighborhood. When we arrived, the restaurant was nearly empty -- we only saw one other customer near the check-in booth. The owner's wife asked if we had reservations and seemed hesitant about seating us. It felt a bit awkward, especially since the restaurant was clearly not busy. I honestly felt pre-judged walking in. Thankfully, her husband stepped in right away and warmly told us to go ahead and choose a seat, which immediately made things more comfortable. Now -- the food absolutely made up for that first impression. The escargot was delicious -- soaked in rich garlic butter and perfectly cooked. We ordered the steak frites -- the steak came out slightly cold, but the fries were crispy and tasty. The beef bourguignon was hands-down the star of the meal -- incredibly tender meat and deep, flavorful sauce. I would absolutely return just for that dish alone. We also tried the duck confit, which was well-prepared. We ordered a bump of caviar for about $25, and I'll be honest -- it was literally a tiny bump. Tasty, yes, but very small for the price. For dessert, the crème brûlée had a nice texture, though it wasn't quite as sweet as I prefer -- still enjoyable. The restaurant has a cozy, intimate vibe that adds to the charm. Overall, great food and a charming setting, with just a slightly awkward first impression. I'd return -- especially for the beef bourguignon.

    We visited this cozy French restaurant in Hillcrest on Saturday evening right after the New Year, and it was a wonderful experience. Some Christmas decorations were still up. It's family-owned, and you'll often see the husband and wife greeting guests, serving tables, and checking in. Even though they've been open less than a year, the restaurant already has a great buzz. The space is small and fills up fast, so reservations are highly recommended. We ordered the Tuna Crudo, Roasted Beet Salad, Wild King Atlantic Salmon, Duck Confit, and Red Wine Poached Pear. Everything was excellent, but the Duck Confit completely stood out--by far the best duck dish I've ever had, incredibly tender with a unique flavor. I'll definitely be back just for that. The bread shown in photos must be ordered separately for an extra charge. I want to come to try other dishes as well.

    This was the best food we had in San Diego. I could eat the french onion soup every day! The staff is great and the food is fabulous! I mean really l, really good. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because they allow dogs. Pet hair and food dont mix. There was a dog on the patio which is fine but 9nce the couple next to me got up to leave, they had a dog with them. Not cool.

    this place is an underrated hole in the wall. the customer service is top notch, and the food is all well thought out and so delicious. i highly recommend that you try this place at least once--you'll be back for sure. frenchy and his wife paola are great people and are so hospitable and friendly. everything i tried was amazing, the beet salad, the charcuterie board, the drinks, everything was such an amazing experience

    Stop it with this duck confit with cherry rocher sauce. Just stop!

Plates like the pisto, tataki, and lamb summarize the restaurant's ability to create once-in-a-lifetime bites in an artistic fashion. The interior ambiance and service staff only help to elevate the occasion.

Which, I am sure they do for everyone. Which is why the consistency and dedication to their service is so commendable. Top tier from the host, our waiter and some sweet lady wearing nice clothes who spoke with us and provided us with refills. Focaccia Bread - 8.6 Good, hot and fresh. It could have used more herbs and texture on the outside. The bread was good quality and tasted as such. The star though is the balsamic vinegar that it comes with. The balsamic is delicious and tasted like it was high quality. Seared Beef Filet Tataki - 9.2 I haven't had many chilled beef dishes however, this is the best one. The beef was very tender and flavorful. It was cooked to a medium/medium rare. The soy jus the beef was sitting in was really flavorful and delicious. The seasonal citrus was also fresh and very delicious. I would encourage anyone to try this dish at Wolf, especially if you want to try something chilled that typically is served hot. Sweet Corn Soup - 9.9 Yes, a 9.9. I'm not sure soup can get much better. Every aspect and component of this dish is excellent. The depth of the flavor of the corn, the texture and items which accompany the soup are all great. The corn fritters are moist, flavorful and soak up some of the soup. The chile dust adds great seasoning and flavor while the pine nuts add texture. If I were to rank the best 25 bites of good or dishes I ever had, this would probably be top 10-15. Even if you aren't a fan of corn, get this, it'll change your mind. Kolibri Salad - 8.9 The salad contained blue cheese, dried apricots, shaved multicolored carrots, bread crumbs and a mustard vinaigrette. All of the aspects of the salad were very good and played off one another very well. I always say the best salad contain a creamy cheese, fresh fruit (not blueberries or strawberries), nuts and a good vinaigrette. The blue cheese was really creamy and probably the best blue cheese we have had. The mustard vinaigrette was good and paired well with all of the ingredients. Patatas Bravas - 8.2 The potatoes were good but not great. The potatoes were tender but too big imo. If they were cut into smaller pieces they would have better texture post cook. The aioli served with the potatoes was really, really good. I wish I had a jar of it. Skillet Mini Burger - 8.8 You could tell the beef was very high quality and it was cooked to a perfect medium. The beef was very flavorful and juicy. The hatch chile crema was delicious as well. If I had one bad thing to say about this burger it would be that it was hatch chile overload. If the burger just contained the hatch chile crema it would have been perfect. However, they also put cooked down hatch chiles on the burger. It was a bit too much chile and I wanted the beef and white cheddar to shine a little bit more.

Parking is a nightmare good luck finding parking within a mile of the restaurant. Pros: atmosphere, drinks, service Cons: food wasn't great for the price, restaurant was small and crowded, no parking Service: All of our servers were friendly and very accommodating. Gave us some knowledge on the menu and recommended cocktails based on our preference. I had spilled my drink and they were quick to make me another one. Food: I had intended to get the prime ribeye cap steak but they ran out for the night around 8pm. I shared the steak sampler which came with four different cuts of steak and 4 sauces. I ordered medium and it was cooked medium/medium rare which was fine with me, it also had a good sear, almost burnt though. Out of the four steaks, we only liked two based off flavor and tenderness. The other two were more tough and gamey. None of the sauces really stood out but the bordelaise and horseradish were good. For our sides we got fries, roasted broccoli, and the grilled wedge salad. Fries were average. The roasted broccoli had really good flavor, I expected the broccoli to be al dente but it was cooked to mush and drenched in sauce. The grilled wedge salad was decent, there was a slightly bitter taste to it. I know it says grilled wedge but the experience of biting into the salad and it being both hot and cold was not pleasant. Cocktails: I tried the Honey Ryder and New Wave. These were recommended as the more fruity/sweet cocktails. You can definitely taste the alcohol but it's only 2oz so it's not too strong. Ambience: 10/10 I got seated downstairs by the bar. Only thing about downstairs is that it's too dark to take photos unless you use flash. Overall, I agree with the other reviews saying to go just for drinks and appetizers. I would go again just to sit upstairs and get drinks and take pictures. We left unsatisfied and ended up getting in-n-out after.

There is a "happy hour" on Monday but it's called Ouster Monday, oysters are $1 and they have different specials that are not offered on the normal happy hour. Got the crispy chicken wings, Wagyu longaniza, and burger The chicken wings were very crispy and came topped with a jalapeño relish. The relish had a citrusy taste to it or maybe it was the liquid from the pickled jalapeños. I liked the crispness of the chicken but I think the relish was too acidic for me. The Wagyu longaniza was my favorite, very strong beefy flavor. It came on top of salsa matcha which i thought was very tasty so much that I dipped the wings and burger in the sauce. The slice of radish on top gave it a nice texture and crunch. I see the Wagyu hotdog is offered on the oyster Monday special so I'm gonna have to come back and try that for sure. The burger was cooked nicely, medium as requested. It came topped with an egg, truffled onion jam, and cheddar cheese. The bun was nicely toasted and the egg and cheese added a nice rich element to it but I didn't care for the onion jam, it gave the burger an overall sweet profile. I'd simply ask for it without next time. Over all a solid burger, maybe I'd add bacon too. I also had a margarita which was on happy hour special. I asked for it to be spicy and they added a tajin rim which was nice. Spicy and refreshing! Parking is all on the street so I had to part a few blocks away. Overall a solid happy hour. I'll be back on Oyster Monday for the hot dog and fish collars.

    My first visit here and the staff was very nice and polite. I sat outside which may be cooler than…read moreplaces inside. I tried the swordfish tacos because I wanted grilled vs fried and really enjoyed them. If you are a non-dairy eater I'd recommend a side of guacamole to make them feel more substantial. Homemade chips and salsa were good. They also serve a side of hot cheese if you are a dairy fan. Would try here again. Enjoyed my table near the window and people watching.

    Our family went to Miguel's Cocina in Old Town for dinner. We had a 6:000m reservation and arrived…read moreearly, around 5:40pm. Our reservation noted that we preferred indoor seating, but the hostesses seated us outside because they said nothing was available inside. My daughter and I went inside to use the restroom and noticed several tables being cleared. Since it was only about 5:50 and our reservation wasn't until 6:00, my husband politely asked if we could wait and be seated at one of the available indoor tables. Unfortunately, the response from the hostesses was pretty snarky. He was told those tables were no longer available and that we would sit where they had put us. It wasn't so much that they couldn't accommodate our request--it was the way they spoke to him that really bothered us. Our waitress came by and overheard us talking about what had happened. She already seemed very stressed and overwhelmed and said she would come back. Thankfully, a few minutes later, the manager came out and moved us to a great table inside, which we really appreciated. I completely understand how stressful restaurant work can be. I worked as a waitress for many years, and I know how exhausting constant requests and customer complaints can become. But even on stressful days, I would never have spoken to customers the way those young women spoke to my husband. We're grateful that the manager stepped in and took care of us, and the evening ultimately worked out. Unfortunately, that initial interaction left a bad impression and was difficult to forget.
