Café des Architectes

The 5 course tasting is great. Best wine pairings of many French style restaurants I've been to. Waitresses are so friendly and accomodating. Bread isn't that good. BEST DISH is the FOIE GRAS !!!

The well-seasoned CDA burger patty feels smaller than its ten ounces. This makes the smoky bacon , tangy Boursin aioli , crispy fried onions and pretzel bun perfect accompaniments, rather than overkill. Read more

The Frenchiness of the Sofitel carries over to its sun-streaked restaurant : The servers have accents. The food is a bit heavy, but it all ranges from nice to very nice. Read more

Charcuterie board: SOBRASADA (SPAIN, PORK ), BRESOALA (ITALY, BEEF ), SAUCISSON SEC (FRANCE, PORK )

trés francaise place with a wide variety of healthy treats . nice breakfast from 6am

Get the sun dried tomato and goat cheese frittata ! That plus the French press coffee equals a thoroughly fantastic brunch .

Market place fish sandwich is perfect for lunch . The salmon is perfectly cooked at dinner . The waitstaff is impeccable. They also make their own goat cheese in house!

The servers say bonjour and merci. The men look like the French men who appear in romantic daydreams, and they're whispering: “Try the Nutella pancakes .” Or the croissants . Or the crepes … Read more

Love the decor (plus it’s nice and quiet for a relaxing meal)

Good beer but the food not much. I ordered the New York Steak medium rare and it was almost well done. This is unacceptable for a restaurant that is inside a Sofitel hotel .

The apple bacon quiche was incredible! And don't forget to pick a chocolate croissant from the basket !

Small but strong. Very courteous and nice entre .

Go for brunch and order the crabcake benedict. A little pricey , but SO worth it - especially the basket of French venoisseries that comes with your meal!

The executive lunch is great with its basket of little breads (the brioche is very good, parole de français)

Great food. Not so great service.

PRAWNS & GARLIC (FRESNO CHILE CHIMICHURRI )

At Sunday brunch , order the Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon . Not on the menu , but they're happy to make it for you.

The $22 four-course prix fixe served all at once, bento box-style, offers great selections from the larger menu and a pair of mini-desserts. Read more

Quiet , elegant, yet casual restaurant

CDA Burger is probably the best burger I've ever had. If you're even considering the burger , get it!

Amazing food just be prepared to wait a very long time for your service.

The bakery basket for breakfast is amazing!

Quiche . Need I say more.
