Top Best French Restaurants in Garland

"Tucked away in dainty Harwood (an artsy pocket district between downtown and Uptown), Mercat is lively and welcoming without being overbearing. There are plenty of seats for solo diners at the chic metallic bar, while tiny Parisian-style tables for one or two guests populate the bistro proper. The French-themed menu is exemplary from the escargot all the way through to the crème brûlée, including possibly the best steak tartare you’ll ever taste this side of the Pond."

"Located in the Harwood District is a contemporary European-style bistro called Mercat Bistro. Paired with a tailored menu and wine list, this restaurant is an honest compilation of classics mostly from Europe and Texas. In addition, homemade croissants, pastries, coffee, and to go items are always tasty."

"The extraordinary “bistronomie” of Michelin-starred chef Bruno Davaillon, Bullion is a masterful blend of haute cuisine and farm-to-table cooking (think wine braised rabbit with gnocchi, or pheasant and black truffle meat pie). Choose your day carefully—the stellar Plats Du Jour, listed on the website, are worth the visit alone—and ensure you arrive at least an hour early to savor the outstanding craft cocktails on offer in the lounge bar. Just ensure you book well in advance: reservations here are like gold dust."

"Bullion has garnered awards for everything from their wine list to their pastries, so it’s a pretty safe bet that whatever you order will be impeccable. The duck is tender, and the mille-feuille is far and away the best way to satisfy your sweet tooth. With Bullion’s funky architecture, warm, European interior, and service of the outstanding French cuisine in Dallas, any dinner here will feel like a special occasion."

"It's a rarity to find soufflé on a restaurant menu these days, much less a place boasting a menu almost entirely devoted to this puffed up French classic. Enter Rise, a rustic French-inspired bistro showcasing ethereal soufflés in versions both savory and sweet. You could easily come here for dessert alone, but then you might miss out on things like the restaurant's signature marshmallow soup, a tomato carrot bisque topped with pesto and tiny goat cheese soufflés."

"This darling bistro is about as warm and cozy as they come—it feels like you are dining in your French grandmother's countryside cabin, if you had a French grandmother with a countryside cabin. The food here is familiar and comforting. A meal usually starts with a warm baguette, and most regulars will follow that with the restaurant's famous marshmallow soup—a tomato soup with large pieces of goat cheese."

"This cubby-hole of a creperie nestled in Oak Cliff's trendy new Sylvan Thirty development has been winning the hearts of area Francophiles with its eclectic lineup of sweet and savory crêpes. The operation is the brainchild of Parisian born Julien Eelsen, whose family has a background in restaurants and hotels in Normandy–so it's safe to say he knows what he's doing when it comes to making those wafer-thin discs of goodness. For breakfast, the options run from savory buckwheat galettes stuffed with eggs, cheese, and your choice of meat to sweet crêpes (made with white wheat flour) loaded with everything from house-made caramel to Nutella and bananas."

This outpost of the popular Texas mini-chain feels like an Epcot-worthy recreation of a Parisian sidewalk cafe, that makes one want to write poetry while waiting on appetizers. Or draw a portrait over dessert."

"Next door to Taverna on Knox Street, find a French restaurant, Toulouse Cafe and Bar, where the patio can be quickly enclosed with clear panels when the weather gets colder. Start with a basket of classic French cheese pastry puffs drizzled with truffle oil for the table. Order lobster bisque with creme Fraiche, then the Toulouse salad with bib lettuce, endive, poached pear, toasted walnuts, Roquefort cheese topped with raspberry vinaigrette."

"Toulouse Café and Bar is a restaurant that offers and specializes in French cuisine together with Belgian cuisine that has French influence with a modern take. The restaurant is built to be comfortable, modern, and homey, where friends and family can bump into each other. They have three locations: Dallas, Plano, and Houston."

"In Lake Highlands, chef Erin Willis has turned an old, funky building into a charming French bistro. And what's more, she's asking that you don't bring your kids, despite the fact that the restaurant is located in very family-centric Lake Highlands. She wants RM 12:20 to be a date-night destination, and she picked French food because "there is a sexiness to it," she says."

"For years, the Dallas Farmers Market was mostly a wholesale market with purveyors primarily selling goods to restaurants. But a more recent emphasis on close-to-home farmers (and a major facelift of the site itself) has made it well worth a visit during any trip to the Big D. Check out The Shed—a breezy outdoor pavilion behind the main building where you can buy all kinds of fresh produce and delicious street food—before browsing everything from quirky housewares to artisanal jewelry in the main hall itself."
