Best French Restaurants in Irving

I’ve never had a bad dining experience here. Top to bottom perfection. This cuisine defies categorization, for any purists expecting otherwise. The bao, ravioli, Wagyu, and sea bass are ordered every time we go. Family style is a must. Have hopped around on the salad menu and it’s all been sumptuous. Crab and grapefruit is a personal favorite. Dessert may be a less of a strong suit, but by the time we get through everything else, it hardly matters. The casual non-sceney vibe is the real icing on the cake.

Such a fun experience with my new grand baby and family. Food and service was perfect. I had not been there for dinner in a long time and have forgotten how delicious the food is there. Short ribs and salmon were amazing. My family members had the chicken and said it was the best they had ever had. Thanks mercat for the perfect ending to our Christmas holiday.

We regularly eat out on Christmas and so many restaurants don’t do it well. When I have a reservation I shouldn’t have to wait 2 hours for a table. Toulouse did it well. Our party of four was seated in less than 10 minutes. The service was great and the food was good too. We had the lobster risotto, the croque madam, the cordon bleu, and the lobster role and all were good. Also started with the charcuterie board. Recommend all!

I bring my mom here as it is one of her favorite places of all time that her and my dad used to come to many years ago and we keep up the tradition. Everyone from the management to all of the service staff is always so welcoming, attentive, helpful, and the chef’s prepared such a wonderful meal every time we go.  I highly recommend, but I don’t wanna tell too many people because it’s hard to get a seat sometimes! We love it.

We were recently turned on to Monaco by some friends and after our first time, we knew were coming back! The food is SO tasty, the service is excellent, and the ambiance is nice and not super noisy, so it is easy to talk. The calabrian shrimp pasta and the bucatini are both excellent. The Caesar salad and wedge salad are good. The beignets and apple tart are super tasty desserts. We know our friends loved the chicken milanese and salmon dishes. The staff also works hard to help pair wines. So, this place is "money." We will be back!
