Offbeat L.A.

French cuisine with stiff drinks. Opened in 1927 at another location. At this location since 1962. Romantic , mid-century setting with attached lounge .

Billy Bennight

Free music performances in the bar area. One of the few places in town that serves rabbit . Very traditional French Country cuisine. Check out the super old folks for Sunday brunch . They are old!

G Tyz

Escargots , quiche , croque monsieur ! Drinks are awesome! Excellent service :)

Very cozy and upscale atmosphere. Great place to meet up with friends at the start of your night.

Food and service were superb. Atmosphere is a bit old-world, but furnishings were clean and in excellent condition. Fairly lively on a Saturday night by 8 PM.

Dani Foodie

Great French food at reasonable prices. The server didn't rush us but was very attentive. Will definitely be back!

Ben J. DITZEL

A beautiful authentic French restaurant with some French staff aussi! Food is délicieuse et you can see downtown L.A. from the parking lot .

On Wednesday nights Taix turns into one of the most unsuspecting hangout spot with music , drinks and a whole lotta space to move about

Rachel Drudi

This place is a Echo Park staple. Most soup specials are vegetarian . If you get fries the basket is huge!

StalkMika Tan

The braised short ribs was very tasty, but I sneaked Mistriss Eden's sockeye salmon and liked hers better. LOL Very big portions .

Ryan Palmer

Beautiful interior . Old school, stuffy Los Angeles fine dining .

Don't let your friends fool you. It is pronounced Tex.

The Smoked Salmon Linguini was delicious. Very creamy but definitely worth it.

Everything I've had here is delicious but the moules maison (mussels with butter) really stand out. Heaven!
