Owner Michael Simpson earned the nickname 'Frenchy' shortly after arriving in the US. A native of Paris, Michael brought his passion for hospitality and fine wine to San Diego, dreaming of one day opening a place that felt like the bistros of his youth.
Frenchy's Hideout is that dream realized—a cozy, tucked-away spot where the wine flows freely, the food warms the soul, and every guest feels like family. We blend the elegance of French dining with the laid-back charm of Hillcrest.
