LA French Bistro Find | La Vie in Rosemead 🥖🧅

Found La Vie French Restaurant through word of mouth—a longstanding, affordable French spot in Rosemead with a 4.6 Google rating. The vibe is simple (don’t expect fancy decor), service can be hit or miss, but the food brings solid, classic bistro flavors without the high price tag. 🍽️ What We Liked: 🍈 Prosciutto & Melon – A refreshing, timeless start. 🧀 French Onion Soup – Rich, cheesy, and sweet from slow-cooked onions. Reminds me of versions from NYC bistros! 🐑 Rack of Lamb (Medium-Rare) – Juicy, tender, and not gamey. Comes with salad and soup. 🦐 Sea Scallops & Prawns – The standout! Savory sauce over rice and sweet potato mash—wish there was more! 🦞 Lobster Tail – Decent for the price (~$30), served with salad and soup. 🚫 Skip: Cream Shrimp Soup – Overwhelming wine taste and oddly fishy. 📍 La Vie – Rosemead 2547 San Gabriel Blvd ⏰ 5pm–9pm (Closed Tuesday) A no-frills neighborhood French kitchen where classics like onion soup and lamb rack shine. Worth a visit for casual, comforting French fare. 🥘💛 #LAFrench #LaVieRestaurant #RosemeadEats #FrenchOnionSoup #BistroFood #AffordableFrench #NeighborhoodGem #ComfortFood #EatLocalLA #ClassicFlavors
