"The back patio at this French bistro is filled with wooden booths, and is a place where you'll see just as many four-legged animals as humans. On Monday nights you get $10 off a bottle of wine if you bring a dog, which is just another reason to head over for comforting French food. They serve brunch and dinner every day—which means whenever the craving for incredible french toast strikes, head straight to this charming Cole Valley spot." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
