The obvious: Brasserie 19!
Or for even more people watching, Toulouse…

Chez Nous

Not Michelin starred as Michelin doesn't come to Texas but I hear it's fabulous.

Etoile in Uptown Park is also decent. Been there for a few work lunches. And walk by it in evenings and seems like a good spot

Maison Pucha in the Heights. They gays great private room for a small party that is no extra charge.

Weirdly enough, French quisine is about the only mainstream food group about which I know nothing.

What's a good reasonably priced intro spot for those of us who are not prepared to write a review?

Not Le Mad or Popeye's. Thanks.

Define reasonably priced? I forget the name and haven't been there in forever but there was a casual French place in a little strip center on Westheimer near Wilcrest or Kirkwood (NW corner) that was really, really good.

My neighbors are French and say Chateau ma Cour is the best french food they've tasted in Houston.

Idk, whatever $$ is now? If I remember right from earlier discussions here and on the other sandbox, you and I had similar ideas about prices and experience. I'll check it out. Thanks.

La Tartine on dairy Ashford is pretty basic.

Some people love Bistro 555 on memorial. It was much better under the previous name, which I'm blanking on. Think it's run by the Le Mistral folks who closed down the Eldridge location. Le Mistral had some good dishes, but overall it was just stale.

Maison Pucha was mentioned, that is very good.

Haven't been to Fig & Olive in years, but I recall it being good.

Pretty weak French scene to be honest.

Not as weak as the German scene.

I haven't been in years but I feel Bistro Le Cep should come with the caveat that it is fine for the price. Bistro Provence was much better at the same price point so I never felt the need to go back. But they are closed and I haven't tried the new Bistro 555. It won't have the same personality that Genny brought.

Pretty similar cuisine. Definitely worth checking out.
plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose
