Bistro St. Germain

Bistro St. Germain is located in the heart of Old Town Seal Beach on bustling Main Street. We are open Sunday-Thursday from 11 am – 9 pm and Friday-Saturday from 11 am – 10 pm.

We offer traditional French cuisine prepared with the freshest seasonal produce from local markets, paired with a large selection of wines and beers from around the world.

Bistro St. Germain, like most French ideas, was born around a dinner table. Three brothers living in three different continents, were at last together again, celebrating a long awaited family reunion. Life had taken each brother into similar but separate paths. Pascal was an established restaurant owner in Seal Beach, CA. His brother, Armand had remained in Grenoble, France to take care of the family restaurant established in 1980, and Laurent, who married their sister Danielle, had his own French restaurant in Siem Reap, Cambodia.

While reminiscing about their childhood in France, the comfort food that grandmother used to make, the great wines, and the relaxed French lifestyle, the idea of opening a French bistro was born. Why not embody all of that into a true French family restaurant and share it with everyone else? When you step into Bistro St. Germain, you are stepping into our family restaurant.

Sit back and relax, enjoy yourself, treat yourself to a meal, a glass of wine and let us know how we can make your visit memorable. Welcome to Bistro St. Germain!

Our menu is designed to delight the most discriminating and diverse palates. Have questions? Let us know.
