Mon Reve

It's decent for Ridgecrest, but it is overpriced and very slow. Some of the dishes are decent -- I had the steak au poivre last time and it was pretty good. But I can make a better version at home and honestly in less time than it takes them to do it. The staff is friendly and it is the fanciest place to eat in town that I know of. But I'd still take a pass and just have Mexican food. There are several hole in the wall joints that run circles for less money. If you have to have French food in R/C, though, you'll get a decent representation here. And if you are going for a romantic meal, probably tough to beat.

Very cozy and welcoming ambiance. Service is outstanding from the moment you enter and your name is called, to the food service and the good by. Feels like family.The food is excellent and very provincial. Portions are perfect , food is hot and presented wonderfully. The product is very fresh and homemade.Well worth the visit!!

This place is adorable! Only been here twice but it's been great both times. Loved the food. The bread they make and bring out before the meal is amazing! As an appetizer, we got the salade de chevre chaud which they split for us. It was really good which surprised me because I'm not usually a fan of goat cheese. But the goat cheese, while still strong, didn't have that "smack you in the face" flavor. I got the tomato basil chicken pasta which I was very happy with. We also got the beef made in a wine sauce (forgot the name of it) along with a side of pasta. For dessert, lemon cheesecake and strawberry tiramisu. Customer service was exceptional. Will definitely go back. My only recommendation is it would be great to be able to make reservations online instead of calling and leaving messages, but I realize there's a lot of setup involved with that.

What a the VERY French restaurant. The owner greeted us with French bonsoir and beautiful accent. I had very tasty home made tomato soup and the side of tomatoes and zucchini dish. Very well served. Great atmosphere. My hubby was able to have a steak with side of pasta. We asked for very plain and very not French way of food for him and we got what we asked. Definitely recommend this place to your guests and travelers. I am a travel business owner and I would highly recommend.

Great food for a Anniversary or special occasion me and my husband love going for special occasion

Being in Ridgecrest for the first time, I depended on Yelp to guide me to a good place for dinner and once again, the Yelp crew came through. I called and left a message about a reservation. I received a call back in a day or two confirming my reservation. The table was waiting for me with a slip of paper with my name on it.Arriving at the restaurant, my GPS said I was there. Be alert that there's no name nor street number on the building. Seeing the Open sign was my clue to try there. The first you know you're at Mon Rêve is the doormat inside the first door. This is a small entrance room. The door is to your left and it opens to a long room with an area for seating if you have to wait for a table.I was greeted promptly and shown to my table as mentioned above. I was brought a menu, water, and shortly an iced tea that I ordered. After studying the menu for a bit, my server came and she explained three specials the restaurant had that night. I ordered the appetizer special--grilled shrimp on very thin slices of grilled squash. There was also a salad. The plating so so well done, it looked like I had a small salad bowl on the one side of my plate.For the main course, I went with the poulet au pesto "fait maison" which was chicken breast stuffed with homemade pesto with a cream sauce that had a touch of curry. For a side, I chose the haricots verts. Other choices were a baked potato or potatoes au gratin among others.When it came to dessert, I opted for the special. It was described as coconut gelatin topped with flambéed pineapple. At first I thought Jello but it turned out to be a panna cotta with the pineapple topping.The three courses very very good. The shrimp were grilled perfectly and the thin grilled squash made the dish different and tasty. The chicken was very good. I would have liked a bit more curry flavor but that's my personal taste. Others might be put off by more curry. The pesto was OK. The chicken was moist. The haricots verts were cooked just right and I was glad they didn't use the tired sliced almond touch. They were just plain and good. The dessert was a surprise as I mentioned above. The coconut flavor of the gelatin was just right and the pineapple made for a tropical end to a good dinner.Service was very good. Three people were taking orders, serving, and cleaning tables. The owner was one of them and he was a genial man. I was glad this was the choice I made and I recommend Mon Rêve to anyone looking for some good food. The restaurant is small and I'd recommend people make a reservation.

Worth the wait. The fresh baguette while you wait is outstanding. The meal takes its time coming out to you but 100% worth the wait... I had the French Onion soup, which could have been my full meal with the bread as it is a very rich soup, but had the chicken Coeur don blue. A little on the dry side but mostly because it was a large breast. Never disappointed when I eat there.

A million times YES!!! The best place in town for lunch and dinner. Love Herve and his wife. They are wonderful and their food is too. Service is perfect, ambiance is perfect, Mon Reve is perfect!!

The owner is super attentive and nice, food is scrumptious, and it's super cute in there

This is some of the best French food my wife and I have ever had, hands down! After traveling through the area from Death Valley we stumbled upon this place by chance. Me personally, I have dined at some of the most world renown French restaurants in New York and LA, and they have nothing on this place. We will always remember this place and return the next time we are in the area.
