Le Cheval is a remarkable dining experience that truly captures the essence of French cuisine. From the moment you step through the door, you are greeted with an inviting ambiance and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant’s attention to detail is evident in every aspect, from the elegant decor to the impeccable service.

I’ve been coming here since 2004 and i can honestly say its still as good as the first time i came here. The food is always perfect consistently as well as the service. If you come here for lunch they have great specials and will have you in and out in 30 minutes. I cant say enough about how well this place runs. I like to consider La Cheval as the place that sets the standards from which all others are judged as they hit all mark’s. My favorites are everything, ok tht said my usuals are the carrot chowder, clay pot rice and the spring rolls especially for lunch. Dinner well i like to step out and try as many of their tasty options i can. This trip i did the clay pot catfish (they were out of salmon) and to my surprise i will be adding this to my usual now, it was so good it had the taste of blackened cod (you know the kind they make at a great sushi restaurant). Also had their chicken wings n they were also delicious. Did i mention they have a full bar and make great cocktails too?

Went for business lunch, food was absolutely amazing! Everything on the menu sounds appetizing so it could be daunting to make a choice but whatever you choose, wouldn’t disappoint. The claypot rice is chicken, beef, shrimp & broccoli layered on a bed of rice & baked. Be sure to ask for the peanut sauce (top with fresh chilli & crushed peanuts), it elevates the dish to another level. Will definitely be going back in the future

I ordered a garlic chowmien with SHRIMP and other dish for to go. When got home there was NO SHRIMP in the fried noodles. They charged you extra money for the shrimp. I used to come here at least once a month either to go or eat in. Their food are not great but ok enough when you don’t want to cook. Other restaurants around here are pretty pricey and taste bad. So they are the only restaurants that I went to when too tire to cook. I had better Vietnamese foods before. They not the best but it just the only restaurant that the food not so bad that you feel like being robbed for your hard earned money. They were unfriendly until they you come a few times. I may not go back there again. Berkeley has better restaurants.

Great place. I enjoyed the Lemongrass Prawns, white rice a d a Lemon iced tea. It was very tasty. It had curry and a little spice, but just enough. Unfortunately, both forks on the table were dirty and it took me awhile to get a waitress’ attention.

We come here solely for Banh Hoi Thit Nuong because each ingredient is amazingly fresh: lettuce, mint, carrots, rice noodles, sprouts and the best sliced bbq pork with tart and puckery nuoc cham. Roll it all up together with the DIY rice paper wrappers and it is a heavenly meal that can easily feed 2 people. Commit to getting your hands messy and you’ll have a great time. Also, paid street parking is a bit tough so have patience as you’ll need to do a few laps around the block. And DO NOT leave any valuables in your car. Take them with you.

Great place for lunch, place is usually busy and I sit at the bar for great good. The clay pot is amazing, love the burnt rice at the bottom. Today I had the chicken wings they come with jalapeno slides and lemon salt sauce. So good!!!
