Mrs Linda Gill –
One of the best meals I have had in a long time. Venison superb, vegetables all cooked perfectly, and my friend had the rabbit casserole which was also superb. We ended our meal with the Cafe Gourmand which is a small selection of 4 different desserts with coffee. All really scrummy. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful with advice on the various options available. For people who want a taste of France, and love well cooked food that has been expertly prepared will not be disappointed with this restaurant. Also like France, if you do not require a full bottle of wine, one can order a carafe of house wine at a very reasonable price, which is also very good.

Sue Martin –
The meal was nice although the beef/steak was very chewy and the waitress didn't seem bothered just shrugged and said sorry

Ruth Brasier –
This is my 3rd visit and it is always very good value, the service is excellent and the food is tasty, nothing to much trouble.

Martin Lithgow –
French Living is quite simply one of the best, friendliest restaurants around. The food is always cooked to perfection, the atmosphere is authentically French and the service is friendly but not obtrusive. If you want to eat in a cosy little characterful restaurant, then you need to look no further.

Andrew Tinsley –
Excellent meal and service as always.
-
David Jones –
The service, though friendly, was slow. We had to ask for the final course and the bill, in order to make it to the concert hall on time. The food was rather mediocre, with a curious combination of salad and sprouts with our main course. Unlikely to go again.

Fiona Randle –
Reasonable but not great. There to celebrate a special birthday but felt the restaurant was pushed to serve the number of covers they had due to a large party downstairs - a point mentioned more than once by the waitress as an excuse for the lack of bread! Sadly not as good as I remember it from previous visits a few years ago.

Ruth Brasier –
The service was very good, the food was tasty, I would recommend you to try for the lunchtime deal.

Patricia Parker –
What a lovely evening, a super Christmas menu, friendly staff and not in the least bit hurried. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at French Living.
-
Julie Sumner –
Another lovely evening at French Living. Always get a warm welcome. Love that we can have good food served quickly for pre-theatre, but also can take our time for a leisurely evening meal with good wines.

Evdokia Samara –
It was the most perfect experience we’ve had in a long time!! We always go to YAMAS, because of the exceptionally high standards that the restaurant has. But this time we thought we would “risk” trying French Living, and were so very glad we did. The whole dinner was an exceptional experience. The gentleman and young lady serving us were the best customer service providers ever. There are not enough good words to express how happy and grateful we are with this experience. We most definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who truly appreciates fine dining. Thank you French Living, you have earned two more loyal customers.

We will be back soon! -

Sue Rafferty –
Amazing
-
Margaret Murphy –
We didn't like the way the tip was included, we think a tip is at the customer's discretion. Besides that, the food was very good and the staff attentive. A very pleasant ambience
-
Helga Edwards –
We had the early evening meal and everything was delicious. The service was attentive and friendly. We will definitely go again. Perfect for a pre or after theatre trip. Recommend this restaurant.

Penny Williams –
Pre theatre meal. Lovely food and service
-
Jerry Pharoah –
Great pre-theatre meal with a good bottle of red!
-
Steve Lgg –
Lovely service, nice pre theatre deal.
-
Brian King –
Lived up to expectation. Nothing special but equally nothing disappointing. Strange to have a menu referring to choices on a blackboard when the staff have to tell customers what is available and would be on the blackboard were it there!
-
Elizabeth Veazey –
Very attentive and helpful staff. Food was tasty and well presented, the wine was excellent. A lovely meal!
-
Richard Mccarthy –
We had a lovely meal, food and service was second to none, the staff could not have been better. We will be returning again. Thank you all.
-
Ian Hayward –
We were happy with the experience.
Thought that automatically adding a discretionary 10% service charge to the bill was a bit naughty. -
Roger Brooks –
We hadn’t been to French Living for a while but we should have been judging by our experience on this visit!
Superb food, excellent but unobtrusive service and no loud background music. Thoroughly recommended. -
Stephanie Hargreaves –
Delicious fresh food and superb service.
-
Ruth Holden –
We had a lovely time celebrating a friend's Birthday, everyone enjoyed their meals (especially the desserts!) and was all relatively inexpensive. A shame about the toilets as it left the rest of the experience down...

We say…
If Paris is just too far away, you can sample a fine taster of all France has to offer by stepping into French Living on Nottingham city centre's King Street - just up from the Brian Clough Statue.
The restaurant is like a little capsule of France transported straight from over the channel and filled to the brim with the very things that make dining on the continent a delight.
Expect classic French cuisine such as Cassoulet Toulousain, a rich, meaty dish with duck confit, Toulouse sausage, and cured pork or Filet de Colin au Vin rouge; a fillet of hake oven-baked and served with a red wine, butter and stock jus.
This beautiful two-level restaurant complete with red-brick cellar is also home to a wine and cheese counter and a classic boulangerie; your one-stop-shop for all things French.
