A La Folie Miami Beach

A La Folie on Espanola Way

A la Folie is a hidden gem that offers authentic French food on the charming Espanola way that is not out of any one's price range. The relaxing and soothing atmosphere is classic French without the classic attitude, an experience missing in South Beach. The traditional French menu is filled with savory and sweet crepes, baguette sandwiches, salads and the ever-important French treat: escargot.

Friday evenings, A la Folie has a magnificent Champagne party, offering vintages straight out of the Champagne region in France. The quaint restaurant is the perfect place to come and enjoy a leisurely glass of wine on the patio or in the rustic interior at a price that is friendly enough to encourage you to come back again and again.

The superior atmosphere, service, food and low prices are responsible for making A la Folie a neighborhood favorite for over five years.

Review:  My favorite hang-out on the beach.  Far removed from the see-and-be-seen hype of many over-priced restaurants in SoBe, A La Folie has excellent food, cozy ambiance, friendly staff.  And to boot, it's verging on cheap!

Review:  If you want a drink OK go there.  If you want a quality French Crepe stay away.  Overpriced and horrible service.
