Great food, listened to all of my specifications and got my order correctly, which most people don't do. Thanks!

nice place 2/21/2009

I had the crepes with nutella and banana. We sat on the patio - had a good time people watching.... we were going to go to le petit four but it was dead so we went here instead. I would come here again. more

Le Clafoutis 2/20/2009

La Clafoutis has always been my choice before Le Petite Four next door. My friend was in town so I figured this is a perfect place to show her what a West Hollywood brunch is like.\r \r They serve wonderful Mediterranean French Cuisine & certain dishes are just simple amazing. My friend absolutely loved it! more

Fries! 2/20/2009

The fries here are so tasty! No, seriously, they are some of the best fries I""ve ever had! \r \r This place, as others have mentioned in their reviews, is definitely not what you would expect for Hollywood. I found it to be cozy and comfortable. Our server was totally very good, he took our orders quick, food came out even faster and we never felt rushed. more

OMG! 2/13/2009

This place - Le Clafoutis - don't think it's new, classic or famous -but it's damn good! It sits out on Sunset with a great patio full of patrons. The French Onion Soup was delish. The bread was perfect. My friend had the chicken marsala with pasta & it was excellent. I had a small request (yet somewhat reasonable since they serve eggs through the time in which I was dining). I ordered the Croque Monsieur & requested to make it a 'Madame' - they did & I ate every last bite. At first, I thought it was too small (I do like a lot of food), but every bite was perfect & filling & I practically licked the plate, but walked away full & satisfied. It was accompanied by - what I would call ,the best Shoe String Fries I've ever had!! \r \r When we saw the dessert menu - we couldn't turn away. So we hung out... we enjoyed the scenery... and then we ordered two. First, the passion fruit coconut mousse. absolute perfection! I didn't want to share it. The second amazing concoction was a raspberry creamfFilled chewy rose cookie. OMG! \r more

Mmmmm 2/13/2009

Mmmm, good breakfast. Not as pretentious as you might think from the name and the Sunset location. \r \r Great outdoor dining. Perfect for people-watching and soaking up sun (nevermind the ozone layer). Ladies - and metro males - there are cute boutiques nearby for shopping... then again it is Sunset so that's obvious. \r \r Service was good, atmosphere was clean and inviting, and prices are reasonable - well, I paid $17 for breakfast total with tip - so depends on your idea of reasonable, some might say it's cheap but when you can get comparable for $10 well then it's reasonable. more

Yummy! 2/12/2009

This place has been a favorite of mine for years, but I had not been in a while - went there for dinner the other night and was reminded of how nice it is. more

Great Brunch! 2/11/2009

I love coming here on the weekends for brunch, it's a great place for people watching, and the food is excellent! I also want to mention that the prices are pretty reasonable for LA standards. I heard that they started doing a Happy Hour which I am definitely going to check out. more

Nice late lunch & people watching spot 1/16/2009

A friend took me to Clafoutis on my first trip to Los Angeles, and ever since, it's been in my restaurant repertoire every time I visit. The servers are friendly (we always spend at least an hour or two there), and I highly recommend snagging a table on the sidewalk for some late lunching and people watching. Their seared tuna with mashed potatoes is super yummy, especially with a bottle of champagne and some dessert to top it off. Pros: Free parking lot in the back; friendly service more

Great Service and Friendly atmosphere 12/14/2008

I must admit, after reading the reviews, I was skeptical. But, this place proved every negative review out on the message board which led me to question the validity of their reviews. I presonally like this place much better than La Petit Four and will be going there every time I find myself in the area :) I am a definite repeat customer Pros: Service, cost Cons: it can be a bit of a horse and pony show with the cars and people watching more

Good Fun 8/25/2008

Good food, good service. Bottles of wine were not expensive. We were able to have a great dinner for two with bottle of wine for under $100. The people watching was great and we didnt have to wait for a patio table. Pros: parking in back, people watching, price more

Great casual dining 6/5/2008

I am a regular here, my gf and I both love the food and the people. In defense of the waitress who emphasized that tips were not included, it was not a question of racism so much as a reflection of the usual clientele. There are a large number of Europeans who eat here, mainly French, and in Europe service is always included in the bill. If they don't remind them they will get stiffed. \r \r I find the food excellent and the prices reasonable considering the location. The duck is always very good and the ribeye is wonderful. Any of the desserts (freshly made on the premises) is worth the calories. more

Why is this place so popular?? 11/26/2007

The reason this place is so popular is because 1) followers think they 'should' eat here cos it's on Sunset Plaza so that makes them feel important 2) rich bald men (or young hotshots) just want to show off their fancy car if they can find a parking spot out front and 3) it really does offer some great people-watching. The restaurant is named after the French dessert, but i've never even had it here. The food -- LIKE ALL THE PLACES ON SUNSET PLAZA -- is pretty substandard in the same vein that I find Red Lobster, Olive Garden and Chili's substandard. It's like a glorified Mimi's Cafe or something. So yes, it's great for ogling people ogling other people, but beyond that, not much below the surface. Pros: The human comedy Cons: The human tragedy more

Insulting and Discriminatory Attitude 1/29/2007

The meal was fine and the service OK until the bill came.That's when things went sour.\r \r For some reason, the waitress felt that it was necessary to UNDERLINE and CIRCLE MULTIPLE TIMES the blurb on the bill that states ""GRATUITY IS NOT INCLUDED"". It seems the myth that black people do not tip is alive and well in this restaurant. We respectfully brought it to the attention of the waitress and manager that this sort of action was unacceptable and unprofessional. Of course, the waitress denied that her decision was discriminatroy and said that she does this on ALL her bills. The manager, whom I'm most disappointed in, said nothing if you can believe it.\r \r All this leads me to conclude that this is an establishment that thinks that it is OK to discriminate against people who are deemed not to be tippers. It was a good evening spoiled, and I hope Clafoutis never does this sort of thing to another customer.\r \r ps\r We left a big tip for the service we received up until we were disrespected. more

Sunset Strip Hang Out 11/22/2006

The food is better here than down the block at Petit Four. But all else is the same, crowded patio, people who go there to be seen and heard. If you want to watch the beautiful people and the rolls royces and ferrari's passing by, this is the place for you. Pros: Probably the best food in the Sunset Plaza area more
