We love taking friends to Bo Beau's for the first time. It's instantly become many people's favorite restaurant. Small (seats about 70 in two separate dining areas, an outdoor patio and even a couple tables in the kitchen), noisy and fun, the restaurant is truly like a French country bistro, and the food's worth the wait. Here' you'll learn to... More

We arrived without calling ahead and were told it was an hour wait so we took a seat at the bar and only waited about 20 minutes before the hostess told us that they had the "kitchen table" available if we were interested. We took a look and thought it would be fun. Needless to say, it was! Got to... More

Fantastic, fresh, perfectly prepared food! Without the fuss. Our waitress had a bit of an attitude, but not enough to dissuade us from returning.

Bo Beau continues to impress after several visits. Most recent was an early dinner -- salmon and pork chop entrees were very good. One member of our party had a beet salad and onion soup. Everyone was pleased. Very good waiter - wish I could remember/include his name. Wish the Cohn organization would open a restaurant in the Carlsbad-Encinitas-Solana Beach... More

We have eaten at this restaurant a half a dozen times. I find the menu interesting but the quality of the dishes is uneven. Had a steak last visit and it was quite fatty. Tonight I tried the burger. The fries were delicious but the the beef on the burger was not hand made in the kitchen. It was very... More

We went with a group of friends while in San Diego and everyone came away impressed! The Brussel Sprout appetizer was remarkable, the best use of Brussel Sprouts I have encountered. A couple of things that really stood out for me were the frisée salad and steak frite, 2 classic French dishes that were as good as any others I... More

Stumbled upon the town of Ocean Beach, and through the reviews on Trip Advisor we found Bo beau kitchen- One of the best meals we've had in a long time, and at a very reasonable price- Brussels Sprout ap is to die for, and the presentation is wonderful- you think, "we'll never eat all this", but you do- everything was...

Maybe it was just our Wedding Anniversary magic, but we had a fabulous night here! Very surprised that we had to wait about an hour for a table on a Monday night. The crispy brussel sprouts fried with pancetta bacon in balsamic reduction were beyond great-I am embarressed to admit that we devoured the entire platter. My hubby had the... More

I don't expect 'okay' at a Cohn restaurant or at any restaurant that charges a fairly hefty fair for their offering. The service was superb. The cuisine? Blah. My wife's escargot... to start with, there were two shells that were empty. Empty! And for the others, the snail meat was crammed so far in that we actually had to break... More
