3 Best French Restaurants in Greensboro, NC

Visited for breakfast as a large party and had no issues getting seated with our reservation. We had Geo as our sever and he was friendly and attentive. The food came out rather quickly and was delicious as usual. Our party tried a little bit of everything. I had the crab Benedict and if you’re a Benedict person i would highly recommend. I love how they offer the full menu all day. This place is very popular so be sure to make a reservation.

This is an amazing gem! The atmosphere is wonderful. The food is sublime. The service is fantastic. They have a very diverse food and beverage menu, a wide section of seating and parking. Conveniently located at the front of Friendly Center, a must try for your next dining experience. The blackened salmon was superb.

We had a wonderful night with good food and friends. The French pot roast was so tender and flavorful with carrots, mushrooms and onions over mashed potatoes. I also had a house salad and molten lava cake with vanilla ice cream and sliced strawberries. I had to get a take home box for half of my pot roast. The whole restaurant is decorated so beautiful for Christmas. The wait staff was very quick and friendly. We come here every year for our Christmas celebration.

If we could leave more than 5 stars, we would! Abby helped us arrange our wedding rehearsal dinner at the restaurant and it was the most magical experience. The atmosphere was absolutely gorgeous and romantic (and we're still getting comments about that AND the food!), the staff were so attentive and helpful, and the food was to die for! We absolutely adored the duck confit and the chicken and mushrooms (and we heard the beef burgundy was fabulous too, from our family), the mashed potatoes were heavenly, and the desserts were absolutely perfect. My husband melted into his creme brulee and I could have swum in a vat of the chocolate mousse and happily drowned. The staff even boxed up all the leftovers super well for us (which we SO appreciated!). Between the food, the service, and the mission (we chose Chez Genese specifically for the cuisine AND their MO), we are so incredibly happy we had our rehearsal dinner here, and we can't wait to come back during regular hours for a meal! (We only managed to get photos of the apertifs, which were also, of course, amazing).

I’ve been hearing about Chez Genèse and finally had the time to check it out this morning. Everyone was so friendly, the restaurant itself is super cute, and it took less than five minutes for me to get a table. (Saturdays always look super packed, but that’s to be expected when a place is as good as this.) I ordered off the a la carte menu and asked for scrambled eggs, bacon, and the lemon ricotta pancake with fresh blueberries. Man listen, everything was delicious. The eggs were scrambled perfectly. The bacon was fresh and crispy. The lemon ricotta pancake was unreal. I don’t know how they managed to get the consistency of a pancake creamy and fluffy at the same time but they did and there are zero notes for it. I don’t even care about pancakes but heard everyone raving about it and gave it a shot. No regrets. My waiter (Richmond) was excellent, attentive, and probably some of the best service I’ve had in a while. I will 1000% be back and recommending this place to anyone with taste buds.

Chez Genese is always such a lovely experience. Every city should have one! From the airy plant-filled decor to the staff, and of course the food. Healthy, local, fresh. It’s a perfect spot for brunch or to take family. Love the cause too.
