French American

Top Tags:

Neighborhood French-inspired bistro featuring an ever-changing French-Fusion menu that keeps you coming back to try the things you didn’t have room for.
Marianne’s organic garden helps supply Warren’s kitchen with his beloved fresh produce & both are actively involved in the local food movement.
The ambiance is fusion as well - bistro style rather than “fine dining” - that is at once classic French and comfortable with an open kitchen so foodies can watch the work in progress. Art work is a mix of Mucha prints and Warren’s photography. Music is quirky.
Nightly wine by the glass specials, carefully curated wine list and a delightful cocktail menu round out drinks offerings.
Neither high chairs nor booster seats are available.
Reservations are for a two hour time period.
Classic Parisian style sidewalk seating available.
Warren and his wife Marianne have spent the last twenty-five years delighting diners with their worldly cuisine & genuine hospitality.

The steak was cooked exactly how we wanted .It was very good. But the french fries with the cheese was way to much cheese. I would’ve rather had a vegetable.

Emily was a great server with a wicked smart sense of humor who made great suggestions for cocktails. Her specialty cocktail with bourbon, Benedictine, and chocolate bitters was delicious!! "Campari wishes it was in my drink" comment from Emily was awesome! Kudos to the culinary team on the special which was the NY ribeye; the duck was amazing as always. The escargot was on point and the French onion soup was exceptional! Our group of 8 had two chefs from Augusta National Golf Club who have very discerning palates, as well as other foodservice personnel who were so impressed with the food, the service and entire evening. They want to come back again on their next visit without a doubt. Thank you to Chef Warren, Emily and the entire staff for making our evening so wonderful! Sincerely, Colin Yoder Sr. Vice President - Sales Brookwood Farms, Inc. Greensboro, NC

Chef Warren’s has become our restaurant to go to when celebrating by ourselves or another couple. The service is always warm and prepared. The food is excellent and interesting. The Cheese Board appetizer is fun for 4 to share. Ambience is a word that has become a little over used, but it is what Chef Warren’s is all about.

We dined here for our anniversary. This is a perfect place to celebrate. We started with steamed mussels which were delicious. Then we had 2 different daily specials. They were shrimp and scallops with risotto along with a lamb trio. Lamb trio was tenderloin, chops and a sausage with a balsamic gastric. For dessert do not miss the flourless white chocolate cake ! Service was great! My only criticism is the wine glasses are industrial grade and it would be much nicer with a higher quality glass.

When my wife and I celebrated our 14th year anniversary, we went to Chef Warren's for dinner. I was particularly impressed with the unique menu options. I had the steak while my wife had the pork schnitzel. My $49 steak was so delicious, I remain certain it was a special cut from a mythical unicorn. Although I am unsure where it could have been locally sourced, details like that would have to be kept a closely guarded secret. The $39 schnitzel (which I had to finish off), was so perfect my German grandmother would have been impressed with it. As for the price, I believe it was well worth it to experience such a perfectly presented meal for our special occasions.
