The name for the French bistro replacing Amaya La Jolla has been released. Bijou will open in mid-June with a menu created by Addison's William Bradley; former Addison sous chef Shaun Gethin will act as chef de cuisine here. A statement describes the new food as "classic, much-loved French home-style cooking, with contemporary California nuances" and Bijou's design is reportedly "lighter and airier"; the restaurant's front veranda will now be a wine bar.
