It’s easy to forget that you’re in Florida and not France on your visit to C’est La Vie. When owners Christophe and Geraldine moved to Sarasota 30 years ago, it was their mission to bring an authentic French bistro experience to America. C’est la Vie opened its doors in 1997 and was one of the first restaurants downtown to offer outdoor seating like many of the established bistros in France.
