La Terrasse French Bistro — Restaurant in Chiang Mai Province

i stumbled across this lovely place by accident today. and i was so glad i had found it. it was in the middle of black out in the area so i sat outside and ordered chicken soup and ratatouille came with it as a side dish. both chicken soup and ratatouille was amazing-they also offered me a basket of baguettes. - a very homey food that you can tell it had made with a long hours of efforts. since it was a blackout, they put some candles for me in the restroom and probably they used candles to prepare for the food in kitchen too, i guess. later the light was back, they all helped me out moving inside the restaurant with AC - it was 34 degree outside- even the owner was helping me. inside the restaurant, i felt like i had teleported to some other part of world. maybe some restaurant in the little Italy in SF or a bistro in some part of Europe. it has the timeless décor with cute antique lightings and posters with jazz music. if i was not in almost food comma status-the bread was so good and the portion of ratatouille-the sidedish- was almost a size of main dish in other restaurant-, i would have tried their dessert too, it all looks so yummy. they also offered me a petite chocolate mousse at the end. staff and owner were so kind and it has a lovely garden.- it was an experience i was not expected in the middle of old town in CM. A must try if you are into quality food with a lovely ambience. -i think also the food almost cured me from the sickness i had for the fast few days. Merci...

By far the best french restaurant in Chiang Mai! The boss is the chef and he has the same kitchen staff for more than 10 years, they are all incredibly talented. I was amazed to find there a quality of dishes similar to the best French Parisian brasseries. Every part of the delicious dishes are homemade, I mean that even make their our French bread (delicious), their own ice creams (I am a fan of the lemon sherbet), and even the small sweets that goes with the ending very good espresso is homemade and delicious... I am totally amazed by this restaurant. You will find there all the typical and excellent French dishes, cold cuts and cheeses plates. This place will make your dinner splendid. The wine selection is not extensive but you can be sure that the quality in here with a clever and fine selection. The boss/chef is really nice and friendly and comes around to speak with the customers when he is outside of the kitchen, the waiters are well trained and can speak well English and some French. Inside or outside the tables are far enough from each other's to feel comfortable, and the cosy ambiance helps your dinner to get the perfect touch. Only one word : perfect in every ways ! One more thing, for the quality you get there I've found the bill reasonable and we'll deserved. Do not hesitate you will...

Tres Magnifique

Hidden away in plain site. This is without a shadow of a doubt the finest French cuisine in Chiang Mai.

I was truly astounded by the authenticity of this understated establishment in a serene garden setting in the Old Town part of the city.

The food was presented better than most Michelin star restaurant which shows the pride the owner and chef has for French cuisine.

An extensive menu is complimented by exceptional service from a waiter that has a thorough knowledge of French cuisine and is genuinely friendly as well as helpful.

Transport yourself from Chiang Mai to Paris in an instant and savour the ambience of authentic French dining within the tastefully decorated restaurant.

A delight for all your senses at a reasonable price considering the authenticity as well as quality of the entire dining...
