A word from Bonnie Ruth's Cafe et Patisserie

Step into the relaxed lively atmosphere of an authentic Parisian bistro and sidewalk cafe. Bonnie Ruth’s Café Trottoir pays homage to the classic 'French Bistro'. Dine on Steak Frites, Moules Marnière, and Duck Leg Confit. Sip a cocktail at our Belle Époque style bar. Happy Hour All Night on Monday… beginning at 4:00. Thursday Ladies night in the bar & cocktail area. Join us for Sunday Brunch and eggs benedict on the patio near the fire place, handmade blueberry cream cheese crepes under the rotunda by the fountain or an omelet with a mimosa in the sun.

"The vibe is undeniably French A starter of moules Marnière was served in a daunting cast-iron skillet, where dozens of plump Prince Edward Island mussels lay tumbled in a bath of butter, garlic, white wine and lemon juice. The seafood was fresh and firm, just barely infused with the essence of the fragrant broth that surrounded it. Another stunning entree was the skate Grenobloise."

Diner Reviews

"Good food overall, though not every dish. Server was a bit disinterested. Pleasant atmosphere. I'd go back, but expectations would be a little lower."

"Place was not busy around 11 AM Sat but picked up quickly. Generous portions. comfortable height/size of the table. No noise... Amazing presentation and quality of the salads. Very good beef. Looking forward to dinner. Crave duck:)"

"The service was not very good we had to wait an hour for our food to come. Presentation of the food was not very good, but the taste was delicious. If you're only going for the food then I recommend this restaurant."

"We had never been to Bonnie Ruth's and picked this restaurant to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The service and food was outstanding. I had the filet which was a little pricey but had a good flavor and I could cut it with my butter knife. We went a little early for dinner and the restaurant was not crowded at all but we were seated in the bakery area which was a little disappointing since we were there for a special occasion. I got up and looked around and would have much preferred to have been seated in the main dinning room but the hostess didn't give us a choice. I was not too impressed with the front door staff but our waiter could not have been more attentive and pleasant. He really seemed glad we were there."

"They had power issues day of my shower but did everything they could to make sure it went flawlessly as if nothing happened."

"Substantial French restaurant with great service. It's easy to spend a lot of money on dinner, here. Very good for special occasions."
Dined on 3/1/2014
"We love Bonnie Ruths, especially on Tuesday night for 1/2 price French Wine. The service was great with Elsa on Tuesday, Feb. 25, but on occasion we have had issues. The food: We always have Mussels Frites (white sauce) and share an order in anticipation of the Red Velvet Cake which we split a piece for 4 people. The food is great…it never disappoints. We also have Calamari on occasion, but not always. HIGHLIGHT: The patio on a nice night is the best in Frisco. Hidden from the world and a great ambiance."

"We had a wonderful four course meal at Bonnie Ruth's for Valentine's Day! Food was awesome. Since we arrived early, it was fairly quiet and our waiter was excellent. I would caution against the carmel bread pudding. I was expecting greatness, but it was very dry. The red velvet cake, however, was absolutely awesome! Moist and large portion."

"We had no idea this place existed, but it's been in Frisco for 8 years. Tucked away in a corner of the shopping center, it's easy to mistake it for a bakery/coffee shop, but it's really big inside, has a lovely patio with a fireplace, and the dinner was fantastic! The French menu was delicious and everything was prepared with care and attention to detail. Prices are reasonable for the quality, and we will definitely go back. Don't miss the desserts, shrimp & crab meat crepes, and angus filets."

"Bonnie Ruth's is a great place. It is high enough quality for special occasions, but also has modestly priced items for everyday. It's the Mary Poppins of restaurants..."Practically perfect in every way...""

"Five-star service made for an exceptional evening out with neighbors and friends. Greeted by the owner, we were escorted to our table at the rear of the main dining room (we'd requested the warmest and quietest location). Our table was beautifully decorated in honor of our Valentine Theme evening, a special surprise personally overseen by the owner. Food was excellent! Recommended: savory escargot served with toast points; calamari served with two tasty sauces; decadent french onion soup; pork chops with asparagus; and, specialty of the house - blueberry cream brulee. Friends who've been restaurant owners over 30 years, said "Bonnie Ruth's is one of their favorite restaurants." Others said it was a frequent family Sunday brunch location!"

"Excellent food, great service. Fabulous chocolate-raspberry cake."

"We went for the first time this weekend and the brunch was probably the best I have ever had. The selection was extensive. The Crapes were so good. Even the scrambled eggs were wonderful. My husband couldn't stop talking about the coffee either. Very Nice!! Can't wait to go back!!!"

"We had a ladies group brunch and this restaurant was absolutely fantastic! They went above and beyond to accommodate our large group. And, as always, the food was fabulous. Great food, wonderful selection, and top notch service!"

"We were pleasantly surprised when we found out BR's had a reservation on NYE. My husband & I took our college-age son & his girlfriend & our 15-year old son When we got there, we were handed a 1-pg menu. There were items like mussels, duck confit, lamb with leeks, and Smoked Pork Jowl. Nothing that I cared for & the kids looked at us like we'd lost our minds. Obviously, they were trying to be over-the-top, fancy-schmancy for NYE & you were not able to order their regular menu. Add to this, that each person was priced at $55. We got up to leave & our waiter cornered my husband who told him, "Look, the kids aren't going to eat this & I'm not shelling out $55 per person for something they won't eat or enjoy." We went to Cheesecake Factory"

"We love coming to Bonnie Ruth's. And to put it in perspective my wife and I just found out we are having a girl. And when we where discussing how to celebrate that night the one restaurant that popped into both our minds was Bonnie Ruth's. I should also mention that my wife is French and this restaurant has her stamp of approval which even if I had not tasted the food would be good enough for me."

"Five of us were looking for a place to celebrate our friendship in a special way for the holidays. I was looking for something different than a chain, in Frisco, festive and warm feeling but not too pricey. Bonnie Ruth's worked near perfect. The salads and pasta dishes we had tasted good and were reasonably priced. ( I may need to go back for steak with my husband.) The rich chocolate cake we shared at the end was a great finish. It was a Wednesday night and the restaurant was not that full, but it was still noisy. We were having to speak loudly to be heard across the table. The server was stretched a little thin, but since we were not in a hurry, didn't bother us at all. Our group would go back!"
Dined on 12/4/2013
"Not a bad food item on the buffet and the service was great. The staff was helpful and we did not have to ask for a thing. I would go badk again and tell my friends. The price was reasonable also."
Dined on 11/28/2013
"Food ok but with few people we waited a long time for service! I had a reservation but they seated us in the entry and it was very cold every timetable door opened. The resteraunt itself had plenty of empty tables but we we reseated with other tables that had kids!! It was a "special" lunch with grand daughters and it ended up not quite so special! Salads good soup just ok and kids hamburger was really dry! Fresh baked cookie helped!"
Dined on 11/26/2013
"Bonnie Ruth's is a consistent winner. Waiters who remember regulars, great menu, really good prices, wonderful food. The only down side is that is is not huge, so there can be a wait if you don't have a reservation. Good for lunch, dinner, or brunch. The menu has enough breadth to make it a place for regular visits."
Dined on 11/22/2013
"We've been there for lunch and brunch, inside and outside. Food was just fine and it feels romantic, like you are in real Paris cafe. Will come back again."
Dined on 11/13/2013
"What a wonderful evening out! We dined outside on the patio with a lovely fireplace and heated lamps to make for a cozy evening. The entrees were delicious and dessert was amazing! Best carrot cake I've ever eaten!"

"We love going here for sunday brunch. We usually make a reservation and enjoy the variety of foods offered. Service is always over the top good . . .Highly recommend this neighborhood gem . . ."

"The ambiance, the food and the service has always been great at Bonnie Ruth's. We've lived in Frisco since they opened and we loved to go there for special occasions. Here's the downside; they have not changed their menu at all and they upped their prices. They need a new chef who can spice up the menu and lower their prices. A small plate of fabulous steak salad and fries shouldn't be 20+ dollars. If they do modify their menu we will go back. Otherwise, we'll just do takeout for their fabulous desserts!"

"Whether we go for brunch or dinner, we enjoy the ambiance and delicious food at this restaurant."

"We were in Frisco for a conference so 4 of us checked out Bonnie Ruth's based on other reviews. They had a great menu with lots of variety. The food was very good as well. Even had some Gluten Free options for two in our group who are GF. I was a little disappointed in the wine list, not a huge selection but we did find a nice bordeaux. The drunken pear and goat cheese salad was excellent. I had the Duck Two Ways and it was outstanding. Two had the Crepitement de Porc which was also outstanding. Neither of them could finish it so they both took to go boxes for a late night snack. The fourth had a seafood special which also looked good. We split two desserts which were also good. It was late on a Wed. night so there was no crowd."
Dined on 10/9/2013
"Its a very pretty restaurant, has a country home feel. The food was good, but the baked goods are outstanding, I definitely would return to try more dishes. . Service-wise, perhaps they were a bit busy in the kitchen, my friends and I were there on a Wednesday, at 1:30pm..lunch crowd was gone. Our meals took a while in reaching our table. Our waiter seemed friendly enough."
Dined on 10/9/2013
"i have to say the food was okay nothing really special about it for the price they ask. I have been twice now hoping the second time would be different than the first and the experience was the same. To me the atmosphere and the food is mediocre and if I am going to spend close to $100 for 2 meals I would rather spend it a Bobs, Chamberlains or the like."

"Brunch is heavenly. Been here multiple times and will be back some more. Brunch? Dinner? Yes! YES!"
