What People Are Saying About LA Frite Cafe

In Short – La Frite is a charming French cafe with patio dining, mullioned windows, sandblasted glass partitions and ceiling fans that stir the conversation of lunching ladies and casual Francophiles. The menu includes international favorites and Provencal cuisine like herb-encrusted baked Brie, crepes of ratatouille and cheese, and French onion soup. Grilled chicken breast, sided by carrots or signature shoelace "frites," is sauced in whole-grain Dijon, lemon juice, and herbes de Provence. Grand Marnier souffle bids adieu to the meal.

Stuck in the 80's
by StewartC at Citysearch
The service was a little slow but the biggest concern was the food. Everything felt like it hadn't changed since the 80's. From the deep friend brie and sauce to my main course, it just felt uninspired. For the prices, this was not good value for money. The only time you should go there is if you have a picky grandmother with you.
- Pros: homestyle cooking
- Cons: stuck in the 80's

Delightful

I had read reviews that complained about how wretched the service was at La Frite, and I could not disagree more. Our server was absolutely delightful and prompt. I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience here. In fact, I went back again a week later, and enjoyed the same wonderful service.
- Pros: Great Service, extensive menu

FANTASTIC!
by calgal25 at Citysearch
We wandered in after a terrible experience at another nearby restaurant . What a great surprise! The atmosphere is a bit dated, but the manager and our waitress (Jeri) were both TERRIFIC, and the food was excellent as well. The frites are outstanding, and the bread is warm and crusty - it's just to die for! I'd recommend the baked brie, mussels, and all the meat choices. The fish was nothing exciting, although the portion was enormous. Dessert crepes were very well done. What a warm neighborhood gem! We will definitely be back - they rescued what would have otherwise been a disasterous night!
- Pros: Food and service are excellent
- Cons: Parking on Ventura Blvd, atmosphere is dated
