The best restaurants Côte Ouest Etats-Unis

The house is red, both outside and inside. Since 1959, the reception has been excellent in this paradise of waffles (waffles) to all perfumes. Omelettes baked omelettes and sandwiches. We eat at the counter or around the tables, in a happy hubbub.

You'll have to find it at the top of a small staircase, but once you've got to know it, you'll want to come back. The view of the forest of ship masts is splendid and the welcome so friendly, while the seafood and fish dishes are generous and very reasonably priced. Try the clam chowder, a coastal specialty. Also on the menu: seafood pasta, sea bass prepared with Cajun spices, or grilled salmon with roasted vegetables.

Built in 1903, the building was long a pharmacy before becoming a café during the 1964 hippie movement. Magnolia Gastropub is now known for its Irish pub atmosphere with a rather classic interior design. Numerous draught beers made in-house and frankly good; traditional pub cuisine revisited. The fragrant homemade sausages are particularly worth a visit, as are the classic weekend brunches.

The favourite address of local customers seduced by the huge pizzas and pasta just right.

This worthy representative of the farm-to-fork movement offers a nice map whose dishes are very oriented around meat. The beef, pork and lamb ribs are made perfectly. Some fish proposals for those who prefer sea options. Evenings are regularly organised, and the Mojo's bar serves very good cocktails. One of the best addresses of Woodland.

This Chinese restaurant is one of the favorite spots of Balboa residents for decades; It serves an Americanized cuisine, but tasty and generous.

The entrance of this restaurant proudly announces the colour: The world's best burger! Here the star is the emblem of American gastronomy. It is found in all the sauces and accompanied by various and varied cheeses. The burgers are rich, tasty and very juicy! Inside the interior surfers with surfing boards to the ceiling and plates of all American states on the walls. Get ready to queue a good time by day and day.

Excellent Italian restaurant offering fine cuisine and classic classics. The presentation of the plates is very careful, the frame rather nice, the whole is certainly worth its price. In short, a very good address.

Opened on December 7, 1982, it is the very first restaurant of the chain. The concept: a 1940's inspired decoration, with an immaculate room in which only the red seats and benches bring a touch of color. Whether it's for breakfast, burgers or milkshakes, you don't come for the taste of the food, which is comparable to that of all traditional diners, but for the view of the Pacific, which is absolutely breathtaking. The reason: the location of the establishment, at the end of Balboa Pier, on Balboa Peninsula.

This unusual restaurant, organized into different areas - pizzeria, osteria and bar - and featuring two large patios, smells of Italy. On the menu: a wide range of delicious pizzas, from Neapolitan classics - such as Margherita, Marinara and Puttanesca - to more original creations, such as Alexa, made with provola, fennel sausage and broccolini. You'll also find homemade pasta with your choice of sauce - pesto, bolognese, carbonara... An excellent address!

Biggie's Burgers & More is all about delicious... Burgers, as the name suggests. Choose from the classic burger, the XXL Kingburger, the kid's burger, the turkey burger, the vegetarian burger, the BBQ burger and the grilled cheese burger. In short, the menu is simple and effective, just like the food cooked here. As for fries, there are a few alternatives to the "plain" ones: cheese fries and "Chili" fries. All washed down with a soda or milkshake. A 100% American meal from this good little chain, also based in San Diego.

Ideal for dinner. French bistro cuisine is completely in the "bobo" atmosphere of the places. We love the lovely patio hidden behind Sunset Junction. For dessert, do not hesitate to cross the street to serve you at Pazzo Gelato, which creates excellent ice cream.

At Fisherman's Outlet, the food is served on paper plates and concrete picnic tables... But don't let that put you off: this market and its seafood café serve better food than the chic restaurants. We recommend the delicious charcoal-cooked fish, or the lobster, one of the best dishes on the menu. Made up of workers and families who've been coming here for three generations, the clientele contrasts with the new "bobo" Downtown, giving rise to an atmosphere that's well worth discovering.

The homemade pizzas are absolutely gigantic... Which probably explains the prices, which would make the Italians howl. Nevertheless, the preparations are very good, made from quality ingredients. There's a choice of simple pizzas like the cheese, made with tomato sauce and cheese only, and more elaborate ones like the terra firma, made with the aforementioned ingredients, plus pepperoni, sausage, onions, mushrooms, black olives and peppers. Special mention goes to the delicious pastry.

If you're really hungry and want to discover the subtleties of Brazilian cuisine, this is the place for you. However, although the country is the world champion of churrasco - grilled meat - Bossa Nova also serves a fine selection of pastas, salads, pizzas, burgers and bowls. A la carte" specialties include blackened chicken with Cajun sauce and the catch of the day with lemon cream risotto.

Established in 2004, this family-run business has won countless awards, particularly for its clam chowder - a traditional soup of the northeastern U.S. and Canada - renowned throughout the Sonoma Coast, and indeed throughout California. Spud Point Crab Company is also famous for its crab cakes, served only on weekends. The owners, Tony and Carol Anello, fish their products with their own boat on the same day. An excellent address for seafood lovers.

More expensive than its neighbors, the Great Eastern Restaurant is nonetheless worth a visit for its kitschy, gilded setting and its wonderful dim sum prepared at lunchtime. This Cantonese restaurant used to have a reputation as one of the best Chinese restaurants in San Francisco. Unfortunately, it has lost some of its former quality. Don't expect fancy service; the waiters are pretty gruff. But don't take offense - it's part of the charm! For the record, President Obama once dined here.

A magnificent gastronomic stopover in Vietnam at this two-storey restaurant with outdoor patio. Dine on the first floor, in the large, tropical dining room, then head upstairs for a cocktail at the bar, where you can listen to guest jazz players on certain evenings. On the menu, a fine selection of dishes blending Vietnamese and French inspirations. Specialties include swordfish stew with green bananas and rack of lamb with curry. A real delight. On the other hand, the bill is rather salty.

Chambers is the restaurant of the Phoenix Hotel, with the same pop chic ambience. In the evening, dine on the poolside terrace before gliding over to the library-bar, home to thousands of vinyl records. The menu features seasonal American dishes with French, Mediterranean and Japanese influences. The burger is a particular favorite with regulars. A splendid restaurant-bar frequented as much by hotel guests as by a host of Bay Area hipsters, as well as a poolside terrace.

We go there to brunch on French toast, eggs Benedict and black pudding (rather rare in California). Housed in a former architect's studio, this farm-to-table American comfort food restaurant serves organic, local fare in a post-industrial atmosphere beloved of the Potrero Hill and Dogpatch Boulders neighborhoods. Popular with locals, expect long lines, especially on weekends. The house also organizes dinners at local wineries - it's worth a try! Takeaway service.

Romantrattoria in the colors of La Botte, with a warm atmosphere. Chef Maurizio Bruschi serves a small but tasty selection of recipes taught by his grandmother. Everything here is homemade, from the bread to the fresh pasta, and it's all very well. Special mention goes to the octopus and, in a completely different genre, the tiramisus. There's also a good selection of Italian and Californian wines, mainly from the nearby Sonoma Valley. One of the best Italian restaurants in San Francisco, you can go there with your eyes closed.

Very popular, this small restaurant serves dishes from El Salvador (the chef's country of origin) in a warm, family atmosphere. You can spot it by the queue outside at dinnertime. Of course, it serves the famous Salvadoran pupusas. These are thick cornmeal or rice cakes, the equivalent of Colombian or Venezuelan arepas. They are stuffed with cheese, chicharrón (pork), squash or refried beans, and escorted by a spicy coleslaw called curtido and a tomato sauce.

Only Italian cuisine restaurant prepared with organic products.

Restaurant renowned for its vegetarian-rienne cuisine.

The great interest of this restaurant is that you eat at the top of a downtown skyscraper.

Restaurant open 24 hours a day offering in a very careful setting, Korean cuisine absolutely delicious; each dish is accompanied by 7 small bowls containing vegetables and other things not identifiées in a kind of vinegar. A truly original culinary discovery that will be appreciated in the middle of the night.

Panoramic view.

In addition to the incredible view on the Strip, you can listen to blues and jazz.

Facing the Bellagio fountains and the animation of the Strip.

Restaurant renowned for its delicious vegetarian-tarienne cuisine.

One of the most beautiful views of the Strip.

Restaurant and trendy lounge bar.

This high-ceilinged pub has earned a special place in the Main Street Station hotel: a vast parqueted area with about thirty tables and not a single slot machine! A dozen or so fans slowly turn on the ceiling. You can sit down at the very long bar to taste one of the many hamburgers on the menu. Those with grilled mushrooms are particularly good. At the back of the pub are large vats in which the different beers are brewed. This pub has received many awards for its craft beers.

You can spot it from a distance at the far end of the casino, thanks to its sign vaguely reminiscent of the Chicago Theatre seen earlier... this little brasserie in the shape of a canteen. The beer is fresh and the restaurant offers a variety of pitcher options. Although the choice is limited, the beers are very varied. As for the food, the restaurant offers some fine pizzas, including the Magnificent Mile Meat Lover with its four meats. Pizzas are preferable to burgers and sandwiches. In the lounge area, matches are shown on the big screen.

In a soothing setting at the Bellagio, Michael Mina Restaurant (named after the eponymous chef) offers sophisticated, high-level seafood cuisine: hamachi provençal, ahi tuna tartare (a tropical species), grilled seafood... The establishment is also known for some of its specialties such as Hudson Valley foie gras or smoked branzino. And for dessert, we hesitate between the coconut soufflé, the declension of different dark chocolates or the apple of love and its cider jelly.

In a sober and contemporary setting, the Las Vegas version of the famous Parisian restaurant lives up to the standards of its parent company. Everything from the service to the preparation of the dishes is done with the utmost care. For starters, you can enjoy caviar, artichoke soup with black truffles, foie gras. For the main courses, the restaurant offers lobster, wagyu beef with braised cheek, veal or quail stuffed with foie gras. Don't forget to save room for the wide choice of desserts.

Located 150 meters above sea level in the Eiffel Tower of Las Vegas, this restaurant serves excellent traditional French cuisine - obviously. On the menu: foie gras served with smoked duck breast and fig compote, scallops with leeks, smoked and braised pork belly à la Lyonnaise, old-fashioned snails, sole, salmon steak, rack of lamb, or filet of beef Rossini. The menu also offers a nice choice of wines. In addition, the establishment serves a hearty brunch every weekend.

To accompany its fine cuisine (tuna and octopus carpaccio as a starter, wagyu beef, chicken breast, lobster risotto, scallops as a main course), the Aureole offered an unusual sight until recently. Thanks to a harness, the waitresses were hoisted to the top of the tower-shaped cellar in the middle of the restaurant. Today, under the direction of American chef Charlie Palmer, the acrobatic waitresses are no longer promised, but still an excellent meal in a modern and sober setting in the heart of Mandalay Bay.

House of Blues is both a restaurant and a music hall. It is on the casino level, in the shade of a big baobab tree and in a very exotic decor that you can taste the tropical cuisine of the place: Cajun Popcorn Shrimp, smoked ribs with Sriracha slaw... The establishment offers many burgers, including the famous Everything Legendary Burger. Of course, the place can seem a bit noisy when concerts are scheduled in the basement room. On this subject, the programming is very eclectic with rap, rock, jazz and country.

Imported from New York, this friendly brasserie-like restaurant serves prime steaks of all weights. Another specialty is lobster, which is served whole and in many forms, from gnocchi to soup. The walls are lined with caricatures of local and national celebrities, as in the restaurant on 2nd Avenue in New York, now closed. A tradition that dates back to the 1930s, when founders Pio Bozzi and John Ganzi offered food to local newspaper cartoonists in exchange for their work.

Voted best chef in the U.S. by Times magazine, California chef Thomas Keller has opened this superb restaurant at the Venetian, with a Lyon-style bouchon theme. On the menu: mussels with saffron, gnocchi à la Parisienne, boudin blanc, trout amandine and croque-madame. To complete the change of scenery, the waiters wear the bistro outfit with bow tie. More affordable than the dinner menu, the brunch menu is a good alternative for tighter budgets wishing to taste French gastronomy revisited in the American style.

As its name suggests, Eggslut has made eggs the core of its concept. After proving itself in New York and Los Angeles, this good address has set up shop in Las Vegas, on the Strip. We particularly recommend it for lunch, as its sandwiches are perfect for a quick meal before heading back to the casinos. The short menu is nonetheless tempting, with classics such as the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. The specialty: the Slut, an egg mixed with homemade mashed potatoes in a small glass jar.

Opened in 2014 by chef Kerry Simon, Carson Kitchen is a very good Downtown eatery off Fremont Street. It offers inventive and refined gourmet cuisine at low prices in a modern, elegant setting with a relaxed atmosphere. Small but carefully thought out, the menu offers a nice selection of plates to share, some delicious burgers, several meat and fish dishes, as well as vegetarian options. For dessert, there are only three choices: banoffee pie, donut and brownie. A favorite!

Born in Madrid, the talented chef Julian Serrano offers a delicious Spanish cuisine. Chicken croquettes, tortillas, Iberian ham, chorizo, mushroom risotto, asparagus a la plancha ... Whether it's tapas, cold cuts or paella, everything is served with taste in this restaurant with a very modern design. The place is often crowded: think of booking. A nice address adapted to groups of friends and families, to share as many plates as possible to taste a wide range of flavors.

A few steps from Fremont Street, this modern restaurant has a large room with an industrial style décor, open kitchen, brick walls, exposed pipes and black and white photos. There is also a small terrace outside. Reserved for breakfasts, brunches and lunches, this good address serves simple and hearty American classics with a touch of originality. The food is fresh and of high quality, ranging from traditional pancakes to sandwiches and a wide variety of egg dishes.

This romantic yet kitsch restaurant - as evidenced by the rose chosen for its logo - focuses on meats and seafood; vegetarians beware! House specialties include veal escalope, duck lacquered with Maple Bourbon, grilled chicken and beef Wellington served with foie gras and Bordeaux sauce. The icing on the cake: the help of a sommelier to select the right wine. Also, note that the Open Table website awarded Hugo's Cellar its Diner's Choice award in 2016.

This restaurant is the perfect place to enjoy fresh seafood, caught locally and around the world. It's the ideal place to enjoy oysters (Oyster Bar) and Alaska lobsters. Unique wine list.

It is difficult to find a good table for the French taste buds in Long Beach. But the Golf Club restaurant is a great opportunity to try out seafood specialities. The freshly seared tuna with its sesame and ginger wasabi salad is a delight. During the day, salads and sandwiches are served more than dishes.
