Foreign Cinema

4.5

About this business

Opened by a team that believes dinner and a movie are a natural combination, this courtyard restaurant and bar keeps an internationally intellectual atmosphere by projecting the films of Fellini, Godard and company on its neighbor’s walls. Tableside speakers add a drive-in feel to the French bistro fare, letting the films function as either the background or a main attraction. Reservations are recommended as Foreign Cinema is one of the leading contestants in the Mission hipness race.

The service was friendly as well as impeccable, my cocktail was an elegantly assembled delight and the food excellently prepared and presented. My daughter and I lived decades in France and appreciate an establishment which knows how to prepare complex cuisine with delicacy and attention rather than overkill. One of my best dining experiences since leaving France.
