Charmant
Juweeltje in de wijk
Goed voor speciale gelegenheden

Opened in 1974, Le Central has been serving traditional French cuisine for five decades, boasting the honor of being San Francisco’s most historic French bistro. Located on the edge of the Financial District, Union Square, and Chinatown in a rare one story brick building adorned with its iconic pink neon sign and crowned by a vintage “Tabac” sign. Step into this charming restaurant and be transported to a Parisian brasserie. With exposed brick walls, original imported brass bar, stained glass features, and cozy banquettes topped with brass railings. The atmosphere invites you to unwind and enjoy delicious French fare and exceptional wines and cocktails in an upscale, yet casual environment. Enjoy French classics like steak-frites, escargot, onion soup, and our world famous Cassoulet. Le Central’s cuisine is comforting yet sumptuous. Le Central is the downtown stop for locals and visitors looking for a taste of “La Belle Vie”!!!

This is the first time my wife and I visited Le Cantral. I found out about this place from an article in the SF Chronicle a few weeks ago, it sounded like just the place we like for French cuisine. Overall the restaurant had a wonderful ambience. The manu perhaps could be a little more extensive but perhaps they change the menu every so often. My wife had the escargot and their signature cassoulet."Most excellent" I had the onion soup which was outstanding and the bouef bourguignon which is my favourite french dish so I have high stanbndards where this is concerned. The beef was very tender and lean which is what I wanted but there wasn't enough sauce so it was a bit dry. Nevertheless overall we had a fantastic experience celebrating my wife's birthday, we would definitely go back.

David, Thank you for the kind review, we are so glad you enjoyed everything. The menu doesn't change that frequently, but with the cost of goods the way they are right now, having a big menu is terribly hard, with a big menu comes waste, and with waste comes higher prices to offset the cost, we prefer to stay reasonably priced and waste less. As for the sauce in the Bourguignon, I have addressed this issue with the kitchen, and they are adding more sauce. thank you for the feed back, it is important in correcting any issues. We hope you dine with us again soon.

The beef Bourgueneon could’ve use more sauce or gravy. Next time I order the same dish, I’ll ask for Additional sauce.
Le CentralReageerde 3 dagen geleden
Antonio, Thank you for the 5 star review, we are so glad you enjoyed everything. I have addressed with the kitchen the issue of more sauce with the Bourguignon, so next time it should be fine, but you are always welcome to ask for more sauce, we certainly will accommodate. We hope you dine with us again soon.

This was my first visit to Le Central and I'm now a big fan! The food was delicious, the wait staff and others were friendly and helpful, and it wasn't annoyingly loud. This is what fine dining was meant to be, at least in my opinion. I look forward to going back so I can try their other options!

Le Central is a neighborhood gem with an authentic French vibe and well executed basic French dishes. Reasonable wine list with reasonable prices. A great lunch spot and we're going to visit it for dinner.

Le Central is an institution and is consistently very good. I had the onion soup and the Salade Lyonaise, both delicious. The waiter was professional and did an excellent job. I've been eating at Le Central for years and look forward to many more meals there in the future.

Delicious food prepared in the standard/classic French style. Wines by the glass are very expensive given the size of the pour. Overall, highly recommend for a classic dining experience which is getting harder and harder to find.
Le CentralReageerde 3 dagen geleden
Chantal, thank you for the great review, we are so glad you enjoyed everything. Our wines are not your "average" glass of wine! ...Sure we could have more affordable glasses of wine, but they would not be of the same quality. We try to have a few affordable glasses at around $12 - $14, then our average glass ranges from $16 - $21, then we have some premium Coravin pours from $25 - $45

Great food and service. Reminded us of being in Paris. It was loud because there was a table of 14 guests celebrating the Holidays

Lunch yesterday was delicious and fun. Definitely an older local crowd- us included . My two friends and I had sole meunière and a glass of champagne. The service was excellent. Noise became deafening as the restaurant filled up, but festive! The bread served ( I think an 8$ charge) but horrible. Get another bakery to supply it- we have so many wonderful bakeries.

Kathryn, thank you for the review. We are working on the noise level, hoping in the new year to get some acoustic paneling and some window curtains to absorb some of the noise that bounces off the exposed brick walls. Bread service is $6 (mostly because of the cost of making our house made butter). We are sorry you didn't enjoy it, we do get many complements on our bread, but we are sorry you didn't like it, wish you had let the server know, we would have definitely taken it off the bill. We hope you dine with us again soon.
