    Le Frite, located in Sherman Oaks, is an excellent restaurant with outstanding French cuisine, with a courteous and knowledgeable staff; my family and I eat there all the time, and we have been loyal patrons for many years. Their poached salmon, served with a dollop of caviar, is delightful. For brunch, try the Eggs Benedict. I love their Australian rack of lamb, which I order "rare"; it's very tender, with just the right amount of garlic. Due to the popularity of the restaurant and their outstanding food, there are times when you might have to wait a bit, but the waiting time is never extreme. The decor is charming and very classy, and the atmosphere is relaxed, with "old-world" European charm. Le Frite is highly recommended: Five Stars !

    This restaurant looks nice from the outside, but the service is horrible. We were not offered anything to drink or any bread for 20 min. Then we ordered after about 40 min and didn't get our food for almost another hour. The waitress was clueless and knew nothing of smoothing over angry patrons. The manager was better and discounted our meal, but the damage was done. The food was so-so to top it all off.

    The person who goes by the name of "me" doesn't know what they are talking about; my family and I have been dining at Le Frite in Sherman Oaks every month for many years, and the service is always excellent, with a courteous and knowledgable staff. The food is also outstanding (see my review above). Due to the popularity of Le Frite, it is often crowded, which accounts for the occasional waiting period; however, the wait is NEVER extreme. This attractive - and classy - restaurant has a charming, "old-world" European atmosphere; in Europe, diners enjoy an unhurried pace, so very different from the rudely rushed pace in so many American restaurants; the person called "me" should keep this in mind. How delightlful to enjoy a glass of French red wine at the bar, while waiting for a table. Le Frite is highly recommended!
