I went to Le Comptoir last week and they were closed down. No message on the door except another business will be moving in. It was my favorite French place. I'm so sad. read more

This French restaurant is gone. It was replaced by a Georgian restaurant named, Beka. I think Le Comptoir closed around March. I don't really know for certain. I came here tonight to eat and it was a different restaurant. If they moved, I don't know where. read more

I had been wanting to try this restaurant for a while and had passed by multiple times in downtown Hollywood. They close for a couple months during each summer as well so check to make sure they are open before going. Really glad I finally stopped in for a meal and will definitely be back! We tried the escargot and 2 orders of mussels- curry and white wine. Both orders of the mussels were great with the curry being the stand out of the two. The white wine was more mild in flavor, but you can't go wrong with either of these. Each order of mussels came with fries and a glass of wine or beer. The fries were cooked and paired perfectly with the mussels/sauce. Mussels were high quality and very fresh. Also, I really enjoyed the Leffe beer that I tried and was included with one of the mussels orders. The mussels were definitely a large portion that could easily be shared. Will be going back to order more mussels in the future! The Escargot was phenomenal. Highly recommend this to anyone stopping in to eat. The ambiance was very intimate- dimly lit, white table cloth, and overall cozy. It did feel a bit like being in Europe with the table next to us all speaking French. The service was also a highlight- Our server was great and made our dining experience feel very relaxed with no rush at all and providing recommendations. This would be a great date night spot or place to catch up with friends or family over food/drinks. Looking forward to returning! read more

A hidden gem! The chicken cordon bleu was delicious. Love the fries and salad that come with it. Our waitress was really friendly.

The food was extraordinary. Onion soup was great and chicken cordon bleu as well. My wife had the sole and said was the best she had in years. Service was very friendly and efficient. The food came to the table freshly prepared. Ambiance was nice with old French music that we enjoyed from our times in Paris. This restaurant is a gem in Hollywood. Keep up the good work! read more

This is a great restaurant, not very big, but charming, The food is great, I love there mussels they are very fresh The owner is a nice French lady, I have been there many times And I NEVER found anything to complain about Go to it see for yourself read more

Quite the hidden gem! This authentic French restaurant has a fantastic ambiance. While inside you almost forget you're in Florida. The customer service is lovely and the owner's children are very friendly. The crepe initially brought me here. The mussels were well cooked & seasoned. I look forward to trying more from the menu. read more

How have I lived in Hollywood for several years and never stopped in here before? After getting my nails done around the corner, I was wanting a glass of champagne to kick off the holiday weekend. I immediately thought of Le Comptoir. It was a little after 6pm on a Friday. I was immediately greeted and told to make myself comfortable where ever I liked. I was dining by myself so I headed to the bar. This is a cute and intimate place with French decor that made me feel as if I was dining somewhere in Paris. I was helped out as soon as I sat down and provide bread and water. I ordered a glass of champagne and the side salad to start. My main was the mussels in butter and white wine. There were a few different sauces to choose from (blue cheese, curry, etc), but I decided to do the butter and white wine sauce for my first visit. The server informed me that the mussels came with a glass of wine or beer. Sweeeeet! I chose the red wine. She brought out an iced glass for the champagne. That made it even more amazing. So good that I had to order two. The side salad was delicious as well. It had a couple of sliced oranges, tomatoes, peeled cucumbers, chopped green onions, chopped bell peppers and mixed greens. To top it off, Dijon dressing. I love salad, but didn't know how I'd feel about these ingredients mixed together.... It was nothing short of delicious! My main dish came out in great time. The mussels were mouth watering. The sauce had the perfect blend of butter, white wine, garlic, onions and parsley. I ate every single mussel. The server was kind enough to bring more bread which I made sure to dip in the sauce when I was done. In addition to the glass of wine (or beer), the mussels dish also came with French fries. The French fries were nice and crunchy. Perfect. Excellent service, excellent food. I will be back for sure. read more

Really enjoyed coming back to this restaurant after many years when I moved out of the area. They are really French and the food is outstanding. Very light well served. Friendly hosts. Was a long wait so if you're good with that it's truly worth the dining experience. We had sole and chicken cordon blu served w veggies, salad and rice. Escargo French onion soup and for desert the Crepe Suzete. All incredible. The wine was also great. Will definitely be back when in town. read more

Alluring, affordable, and authentic. Le Comptoir is hard to beat! And really now, why would you want to? It all started when I first tried mussels a month ago. I shockingly fell in love. I say shockingly as seafood and I don't have much of a relationship, but that is slowly changing. Because the original place we went to is rather pricey, I started to look around for a place I could go to that wouldn't break the bank. When my boyfriend decided to surprise me with a dinner date, I immediately said to look for a restaurant with mussels. Originally we were planning on going to Le Bouchon du Grove, but we called and found out they were closed for renovations. As a result, my dear Edwin P. began to search for a place worthy of date night and so Le Comptoir came into the picture. He called, made a reservation, and off we went. The ambiance of this restaurant reminds me so much of Paris. Specifically a restaurant I went near Montmartre. Everything is pristine and perfect for conversation. It's so quiet and intimate, feeling extremely laidback and dare I say European? Definitely the place to sit back and enjoy, relax, and definitely not rush. The food menu is limited but delicious. Go and try the mussels; it's their specialty. There are eight different kinds and you can't go wrong with any of them. I had the white wine ones, while my boyfriend had them Provençal. Both were spectacular, but I admit a preference to the classic white wine ones. Also, note that the mussels are two pounds' worth and come with a glass of wine or beer, plus French fries, for the low price of $18.50. This is a steal! And lest I forget, there is staff that speaks actual French. You know you're getting the legit deal. Spoke to the woman who attended us and she was a native French speaker (I could tell from the accent when she said Chardonnay) and that just made my night. As someone who lived in France, I always love when I get the opportunity to practice speaking the language. Will return soon. read more

Family run outstanding venue. I think the kids are the servers and the mom is the cook. Good size portions, Great wine. Fresh bread. Cheap prices for French fair. Once inside its like being in Franc. The best thing they have is 2 LBS of mussels (served like 8 different ways), amazing fries and a glass of wine for like 20 bucks (give or take). They have great fish dishes and steak as well! Go try this place! read more

This place has the best mussels in the world!! Service is always good! Very family oriented! Maybe needs some renovations but with the rent prices and all expenses that restaurants have now , it's ok ;) read more

My wife and I have walked by LeComptoir on Harrison st in downtown Hollywood probably 200 times in our 24 yrs living one block from the place. Tonight, we went in and sat at the bar. Naomi greeted us a big smile and welcomed us. Her team peer began to explain the menu. Both of them were kind and very accommodating. Our 1st time so of course we wanted to know more about the tasty mussel dishes, as they have 7 versions of preparing. We were craving garlic, wine, butter, onion bases, hint of tomatoes. Naomi tells us she had to go back and bake the bread it's hot and yummy for us. Comforting. Wow, warm bread w melty divine butter for starters! We shared a house salad w tasty mustard wine vinegarette. Great green some cheese and tomato. Plenty for 2 to share. We got a glass of wine included with your entree. So we had the mussels Provençal w extra crispy French fries. The layers of flavor in the broth w the fresh mussels - even a touch of grit- was stellar. The fries were perfect! Huge pile of mussels and more warm bread for plenty of dipping. We added a touch of hot sauce in each bit and our moths weee jumping for joy! We layered dipped bread w 2 mussels each, more depths of the sauce and one bit was simply divine. Naomi and her peer checked on us consistently, as they place filled up. We were not sat and forgotten about which many times happens sitting at a bar. The bill w tip was $43 bucks. It was the perfect satisfying amp in t of fold for two. Family owned for 14 yrs in downtown Hollywood and I know this, we will be back! Go see and more importantly allow your taste buds to " go with the flavor town flow"! read more

Great food and great atmosphere! and ambience. This place evokes memories of France especially Paris. read more

Just about perfecto is this family owned French restaurant in downtown Hollywood. Muscles, muscles and more muscles are the main attraction. All flavored with perfect sauces. Mine with with Blue Cheese. You may need to ask for more bread to sop up the sauce. And the paring of a free glass of red wine was again, perfect. Steak, chicken, they have it all. As my sayings goes; If the one family meets you at the door and the other cooks for you, you're guaranteed a GREAT MEAL and a spectacular evening. And the price is right! Thanks for a memorable dinning experience! We will be back soon, we hope! read more

What a pleasant surprise this French restaurant turned out to be. I was in the mood for mussels and and initially the plan was to go to Le Bouchon de Grove but unfortunately it's closed for renovations so I took out my trusty Yelp app and searched for mussels and this is the first place that popped up Looking at the photos on the Yelp page it seemed the main specialty is mussels so I was sold. I made a call to make a reservation and soon was on the way This restaurant is located in Harrison Street right next to Tipsy Boar. Once we walked in we were greeted by the super nice hostess who obviously was a native French speaker who promptly seated us. We were provided with the menu (which is very limited) and immediately noticed that the mussels were the preferred choice as not only were there 8 different types of mussels (from the standard white wine shallot to curry mussels) on the menu but everyone seemed to be ordering them I ordered the mussels in Provençal style which came with fresh fries. Once ordered we promptly received a steaming pot of the mussels mixed with tomato sauce, onions, shallots and cream with the side of French fries. The mussels were perfectly prepared that the edible parts would easily fall out with your hands or spoon. Definitely some of the best mussels I've had The amazing part is that each mussel selection you choose (no matter the cooking style) is only $18.50 for 2 lbs of mussels, French fries and either a glass of wine or glass of beer. Definitely worth it and will get a second visit from me read more

When my bf took me to this place and told me I about this place I couldn't believe it. What a gem! Such a homey feeling and vibe, met the owner she was so lovely. Their mussels are absolutely outstanding and for the price is so lovely.. they have over 5 sauces for the mussels and you just can't go with any of them! Now that I know of this place will definitely be a regular!! read more

Le Comptoir is clearly a French restaurant serving up some rather well prepared French foods. Though the menu is somewhat abbreviated, it contains all of the French essentials one might expect. They have some really good mussels, frog legs (check for availability) duck al l'orange and a fillet of sole amongst other offerings. The wait staff is polite though somewhat goofy with a waiter chewing gum and some young girl who I saw seemingly accomplishing nothing except sitting in corner doing what I found to be a rather disturbing as well as distracting amount of cell phone texting. For myself, I went for the chef's salad which was served unmixed with in rather unique clam shaped bowl arrangement which was tasty and good with little rollups of a meat, tomato and orange slices. Also the sole came in a really good size portion nicely breaded and done in a francese style. I happen to have been there on a Sunday night and though most other places were dead, Le Comptoir was in fact filled to capacity with dining fans which stands as a good testament as to their popularity and loyal following. The best part about Le Comptoir are the prices. Most French food restaurants of the area tend to be wallet punishing, but not Le Comptoir. Their offerings are more simple, basic French and with a simple menu, reasonable in price. Then, with the size of the portions taken into further consideration, a rather good bang for the buck. read more

Really enjoyed dinner here. The duck was amazing and our friends loved the fish as well. Very nice family run business. Try it!

The Chicken cordon Bleu was fantastic. Absolutely delicious. Prices are very reasonable as well.

A client recommended Le Comptoir to us. Even though she lives in South Miami she would come here. She was right. Definitely worth the drive. The atmosphere and service was great, but the food was outstanding. We had the frog legs, orange duck and blue cheese mussels, way too much food for 2 people, but worth every bite. read more

Discovered this awesome restaurant recently and can't wait to go back. Warmly greeted by two lovely ladies and escorted to our table. Service was 5 star for sure and we were checked on numerous times during the evening. Appetizers of escargot and French onion soup were great. In fact, probably the best French onion soup I've ever had! Our entrees were incredible! Some of us had mussels which can be served numerous different ways. Their prices are moderate and a great value. For example the mussels are served with a free glass of wine, fries and plenty of bread on the table. All this for $25. The restaurant is charming with low lighting and a warm atmosphere. Highly recommend! read more

Authentic food, amazing service. I am a repeat customer and have never been disappointed!

This was our first time abs excellent! If you love mussels, this place is for you. We got there early abs the bread wasn't ready, my only suggestion would be to have loads of bread and butter ready and available. We will definitely be back! Oh, the selection of wines could be better too. read more

Magnifique!!!! Just superb!!!! Highly recommend this place to everyone! The muscles with wine, cream and bacon are out of this world... and don't get me started with the escargot they are the best I ever had!!! And also want to thank Lesly for giving us such a great service we are going back on Saturday with some friends. read more

I normally don't go for French food, but my family had a coupon from restaurant.com to check it out. When we got there, there were no available tables, so we were seated at the bar until a table opened up. The place was small and cozy and the staff was very nice and friendly. They gave us delicious warm bread (we went through 3 baskets of it) I had the frog legs salad, which was great. It was an appetizer but big enough for a whole meal. We also got mussels which came in a huge portion, too. The steak and chicken were both delicious and everything came with french fries. We were all stuffed and happy at the end of the meal! We will come back for more! read more

A restaurant.com gift certificate brought me to this hidden gem today and I was impressed. Everything was fresh, delicious, homemade and the menu contains essentials of the French menu. The bowls of mussels are big and the price includes french fries and a glass of wine of your choice. The steaming bread basket was delicious while we waited for the entrees.The staff is very friendly, gracious and pays attention to details. The service is slow(45+ minutes). Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and hospitable. I WILL BE BACK! read more

We haven't been back to this restaurant in a while and will not make that mistake again! They really serve excellent French food in a lovely environment. Our server who also happens to be family-owned in the restaurant, Naomi took very good care of us even though she was all by herself on a floor with about eight tables filled. Her mother was the chef and gave us the best muscles and fillet of sole dinner we have had in awhile. The wine was chilled perfectly and all safety protocols were followed. Missed the 5th star only due to a slow start. True French food served by true Parisians at affordable prices read more

You can travel to every corner of South Florida, but it will be tough to find a better deal than Le Comptoir's $20 mussel special. For the price, you get 2 lbs of mussels cooked in the sauce of your choice, french fries, and an adult beverage (and bread, of course). I wouldn't mind paying that price for lesser-quality food, but for decent French cuisine?...Magnifique! The fries are tasty and the baguette is a baguette. The house wine I had paired well enough with my food. But the mussels had me wishing I had listened in French class so I could compliment the chef with appropriate superlatives. As for the rest of the food- Everything I managed to steal from my companions' plates was delicious. If you've ever visited France and have eaten at a sidewalk café in a little town, you'll appreciate the experience here, it feels and tastes the same way. It only gets 4 stars instead of 5 because the booth we were eating at was strewn with baguette crumbs. I felt as if I was sitting in some toddler's seat... Next time I'll elect to eat at the bar. If you're reading this, don't let the 4 stars stop you from visiting though, just pay attention to where you sit. read more

This is one of my favorite places for a girls night dinner. Wine, mussels, and we can sit there all night. The blue cheese and the mustard mussels are my favorites, which comes with incredible french fries and a glass of wine. It's a small menu but that is because what they make, they make really well. Their house salad is the BEST I have ever had. It's filled with fresh veggies (not iceberg lettuce). It's family owns and the daughters are warm and welcoming. I always feel like I am coming home the moment I walk in the door. read more

I have wanted to dine here for awhile. And now I know I will be back soon. The food was great, the wines drinkable and the staff very helpful and friendly. It is definitely one of the better restaurants in Hollywood. read more

This French restaurant in Hollywood florida is very good. Unassuming place with friendly staff. They have the most delicious mussels in different sauces. You get a glass of wine and frites with your mussels order. I order the frog leg salad as an appetizer. Superb! I really didn't want to post this as it is our secret restaurant that few know about. The family who run are so nice I felt I need to share this wonderful restaurant with yelp. read more

We arrive at 7:45 PM on Sunday and the server tells us she is "busy" after I ask her if I could move 2 tables together she tells me to wait. Party of 7, we wait.... she then tells us to move the 2 tables together after 5 mins and we gratefully do so. She proceeds to tell us 20 mins for food 10 mins for food. We say no problem and we wait. She comes back after 15 mins and tells us they are ALL OUT of mussels!!! Horrible service and the server had 3 tables by the way, 3!! Bottom line it was obvious the server did not want to serve my family and I. It's the 3rd time its happened to us. This place needs to get it together if they want to survive in Hollywood. read more

This is a family owned restaurant in what used to be a pretty trendy part of Hollywood but has fallen on harder times of late. The lovely Parisian owner served us herself. The mussels in the curry sauce were plentiful and delicious, the fries were really good, we had three servings of the bread and the steak was decent. With wine and beer, the bill came to $45 (with tip). The service was friendly and prompt. A great value for the money. read more

Frog legs were well seasoned. Delicious! One of the best we have had. We ordered the 2 lbs. mussels plate which comes with a glass of wine or beer and French fries, which were also seasoned well. The mussels come with different sauces. We had Blue Cheese, Carbonara and Cocunut milk. All are made in a base of white wine. My favorite was the Blue cheese one. The escargots were very good too. Oh, and the bread was fresh and hot. We had the Nutella crepe and profiteroles for dessert. Both very good. The profiteroles have a dark chocolate sauce on top. The menu is simple, not many options. Everything we tasted was great! We will go back when we are in the area. read more
