The French Laundry

The French Laundry continues our list of the best restaurants in California. Few California restaurants have attained the sort of acclaim and affection that Thomas Keller's The French Laundry has, and Keller is the only American-born chef to have two three-Michelin-star restaurants. The lovely two-story cottage has served as a Scottish tavern, a French steam laundry, and now a showcase for California's best products. Keller's mixing of classic French techniques with local Northern California produce and dairy is likely to inspire any guest who is lucky enough to get a table and taste the chef's tasting menu at the 20-year-old business. There is also a fantastic wine and spirits list at The French Laundry.

The French Laundry is a member of Relais & Chateaux, Relais Gourmands, and Traditions & Qualité, all of which are established in France and are known for their commitment to upholding the highest worldwide standards for hospitality and culinary quality.
