We went to French Connection for a birthday celebration and were not disappointed. Loved our meal and the service. The food is European but with plenty of regional influence. The place were very busy, even though it was the off-season, which I think shows how well-regarded it is. Nice wine list, great service. It was one of the top-five best... more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at French Connection and must say after sampling the best that Placecia had to offer, including but not limited to Francis Ford Copplas " Turtle Inn" not one of these restaurants was able to capture the local atmosphere and feel while maintaining the highest level of food quality and service quite like this... more

I recently spent 4 months in Belize, most of which time I was in Placencia Village. I ate at just about every restaurant from maya beach to the southern tip of the penninsula, most of which on several occasions. After this I came to the definitive conclusion that the French Connection is the best place to eat in the area... more

We own Steppingstones resort in Monkey River which is about 1/2 hour by boat from French Connection. Belize is a culinary wilderness, in which French Connection shines like a beacon. Cheap it isn't - but frankly, for food and wine like this we are prepared to pay the price. We go there for birthdays and anniversaries - and when we... more

Writing this review is difficult as merely thinking about my dinner at French Connection makes me want to do a U-Turn and get straight back on the Plane to Belize. A truly fantastic all round dining experience - long may they serve (and PLEASE start a Franchise in the UK!!) more

My husband and I went to French Connection while on our honeymoon and we were blown away by the food! Coming from LA we have had the opportunity to eat at some very nice, expensive restaurants. French Connection is right up there with all of them. The food was delicious, the service was outstanding and Anna and Marcus were the... more

French Connection is currently tucked away in a tiny side street in Placencia, but will be moving to another location very soon. The UK and Swedish owners were extremely friendly and welcoming and have created a wonderful atmosphere in the slightly shabby current location. The food is French country style and delicious. The menu is based on what is fresh... more

Went to French Connection twice on my last trip. Every visit is a real treat. The menu constantly changes, the flavors are wonderful and the owners are just so nice. I don't know how they do it, but I have some of my most memorable dining experiences anywhere, right in Placencia. The French Connection is a must visit whenever I... more
