I had an exceptional dining experience at Le Petit Restaurant.
This charming French establishment truly captures the essence of France.
I made reservations for a special birthday celebration one week in advance and requested a specific table, which they graciously accommodated.
Upon arrival, we took advantage of their convenient valet service for $13, eliminating any parking worries. As we entered, the hostess warmly greeted us, already aware of our special occasion.
The restaurant's cozy ambiance resembled a rustic French country kitchen, adding to the overall charm.
We opted for a delightful 6-course meal to fully immerse ourselves in French cuisine. Our culinary journey began with the Bigeye Ahi Tuna Tartare, a perfect blend of fatty and lean tuna topped with creamy avocado.
The second course, Black Mussels Poulette in a rich white wine reduction with shallot sauce, was generously portioned and could easily suffice as a main dish at $16.95. To cleanse our palates, we enjoyed a Caesar salad before delving into the main courses.
Our knowledgeable waiter expertly guided us through wine pairings and recommended a bottle of 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape, perfectly complementing each dish. After the appetizers, we indulged in the main courses.
The fifth course featured a delectable Crispy Duck paired with wild rice, haricots verts, baby carrots, and a delightful fusion of orange and Grand Marnier priced at $39.95.
Following that, we savored a 16oz Creekstone USDA Prime Angus Ribeye Steak as our next entrée, accompanied by a cognac black peppercorn sauce and pommes frites for $54.95. As we approached the final course, we were treated to a heavenly Soufflé au Chocolat, served with vanilla bean ice cream, chocolate and vanilla sauces, and a dollop of whipped cream.
This decadent dessert provided a fitting conclusion to our exquisite dining experience at Le Petit Restaurant, leaving us thoroughly satisfied and impressed by the culinary artistry on display. In addition to the à la carte menu, Le Petit Restaurant offers specials and set 3-course meals, as well as daily specials for those seeking a more streamlined dining experience.
While opting for these options can simplify your visit, I highly recommend stepping out of your comfort zone and exploring the diverse flavors and offerings on the menu.
Embracing the opportunity to try new and unique dishes can truly elevate your culinary experience and introduce you to a world of delightful flavors and textures.
Don't hesitate to embark on a culinary adventure and savor the full range of offerings that Le Petit Restaurant has to offer. Overall, Le Petit Restaurant provided an unforgettable gastronomic experience, offering authentic French flavors in a delightful setting.
I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to savor exquisite French cuisine in a cozy and welcoming atmosphere.
