As 'chii' noted, the restaurant presents its offerings without unnecessary garnititure, focusing on honest flavors that shine through in every dish. It's a refreshing approach that resonates with those who appreciate the art of simplicity in dining.
One standout dish is the endive salad with Roquefort, highly recommended by customer 'Brice Fusellier', which perfectly balances creamy richness with crisp freshness. Another favorite, the carré d'agneau, is a must-try that showcases the chef's skill and dedication to French culinary traditions. Every dish, from appetizers to desserts, is crafted with a care that can be tasted in every bite.
Affordability is a defining feature at L'Amitié. Many patrons, like 'Pakpoom L', have highlighted the cafe's excellent cost-effectiveness, particularly during lunch hours.

With quality dishes at reasonable prices, this restaurant truly embodies the spirit of friendship ("Amitié" in French) through its food.

Our Guestbook
“ GREAT food! Quality food at a price that is very reasonable. Portion size is unbelievably large, even for Japan (or I’ve been here too long?)! A very popular local restaurant that needs reservations maybe a month ahead. Even though I am a fan of Ore No French, it has nothing on this... ”
“ If you are looking for good homey french cuisine and don't want to break the bank, this is it. Everything from the appetizer to dessert was delightfully yum. There was nothing to fault. A shout out about their plating, there wasn't any wasteful garniture, unlike some extravagant priced fancy restaurants. Good food at reasonable price setting with great service, what more could your ask for? ”
“ Great lunch for a reasonable price. You’d better make a reservation a month before. ”
“ Good small french restaurant at takadanobaba. but you need a reservation. Probably would take a month for a good a slot. ”
“ The best French bistro in Japan, by far. We try to go there every time we go to Tokyo. Endive salad with Roquefort is an absolute must, as well as the carré d'agneau. Advise to book in advance ”
“ Food tasted nice. Excellent cost effectiveness for lunch. Drinks were a bit pricey ”
“ House style french with very delicate taste. Good price quality but there are many option charges. Space is not big and wine was so so. But still one of the few quality hommy style french in the town. ”
“ Love this place, they have a amazing set course for 2800 yen with foods like duck and steak, as well as really tasty desserts like creme brulee. (Dessert is extra) Cash only mind you, and you'll probably need a reservation. Staff are great here. ”
