Classic French bistro and San Diego's French Restaurant of the Year at 7437 Girard Ave in La Jolla Village, 92037 — the bistronomic successor to the legendary Tapenade after its 18-year run. Chef Jean-Michel Diot and Executive Cheffe Amélie run a dinner-only kitchen (Tue–Sat evenings, Sunday brunch) built on the "bistronomie" philosophy: haute technique, seasonal produce from the La Jolla Farmers Market, and the warmth of a neighborhood bistro — an approach that places Bistro du Marché at the fine-dining end of a Mediterranean corridor that includes Beeside Balcony and its "Flip Flop Fine Dining" on Prospect. Signature Wild Mushroom Ravioli with Port wine sauce is the must-order. Tuesday brings Mussels and French Fries; Wednesday is Steak Night; Thursday features real Dover Sole Meunière. Reserve for evenings — this is consistently one of La Jolla's most acclaimed dining rooms, and diners who want Mediterranean comfort without the reservation head to Marketplace Grille on Torrey Pines Road.
