About Fleurette

FrenchSpecial occasion

Opening this fall in La Jolla, Fleurette is celebrated chef Travis Swikard’s ode to the French-Italian Riviera, marrying light, citrus-kissed flavors with the best of San Diego produce. Housed in a 120-seat space designed by Studio UNLTD, the restaurant delivers a breezy, sunlit atmosphere that feels both transportive and distinctly local. Expect seasonal plates built for sharing, coastal wines, and an easygoing yet refined dining experience.
