Taste France in the High Desert
Herve, the owner of this fine establishment, has created an epicurean masterpiece in the heart of the high desert. One feels whisked away to the cosmopolitan cuisine capital of France. Peaceful and picturesque, this is by far Ridgecrest's best location for elegant dining. You should dine here if you have not yet visited.    [03 Mar 2004 20:09:29]

Food was poor and service was mediocre compared to similar French restaurants in the Los Angeles area. Being the only one does not make them good. We went once and have felt no desire to return.    [11 Mar 2006 23:53:16]

A Jewel in the Desert - The Best !
Last year I was traveling to Death Valley and stopped in Ridgecrest for the night. Of all the places available to eat, I decided on something different.I drove around and found Mon Reve, which was in the center of town and with very little fanfare. Let me tell you it was the best thing I did the whole weekend. After taking my first bite of the Beef Stroganoff, I wondered why this place didn't have a line around the block. Ladies and gentlemen, I have eaten this dish around the world and this is the BEST!!! In Ridgecrest no less. Every little thing was incredible to taste. These people know how to cook French. If you don't like French, go anyway, it's that good. This would be my ONLY reason for driving to Ridgecrest again, the food is that good. It's a couple of dollars more than your local diner but the quality and taste is amazing as well as the service. Don't be a fool and pass up this most tresured food establishment while you're in the desert. You will not be sorry. It's truly a jewel in the desert, which most pass over. Don't.    [23 Apr 2006 13:15:56]

Absolutely amazing. Finding such a place in the middle of nowhere with a wonderful atmosphere, great food and a beautiful ambiance. WHAT A TREAT.

Totally different than what we were able to find on our trip from Arizona.

Don't miss that restaurant if you are in this area. Delightful!    [04 Jun 2006 11:22:34]
