Diners can enjoy some of the most authentic French food in the valley when they visit Le Petit Restaurant. With the air of a bistro that has come straight from a Paris street, Le Petit serves French fare and adds its own California twist. The look and feel make it a great date spot that is conveniently open for late night dining. The interior is masked in an Art Deco decor, framed by high ceilings and filled with candle-lit and linen-covered tables, framed art adorning the colorful walls, white curved booths, and hardwood floors. The menu runs through a range of creative dishes, like the blackened salmon, grilled entrecote (rib-eye steak), escargot, herb-roasted chicken, and more, including daily specials. On Monday and Tuesday nights Le Petit offers a special 1.5 pound live Maine lobster, with soup or salad for $45.95. A notable wine list and full bar give diners ample drink choices. Le Petit Restaurant is available for private parties

We had a reservation and was seated immediately. After a few minutes the server came over and asked us what we wanted to drink. It was all down hill after that. She had an attitude. She was curt & not friendly. She just said I want your appetizer & food order at the same time. The food was very tasty except for one item. We ordered the mussels & about half of them were missing from the shells or wouldn’t open. We flagged down the server & told her about them and she stated that’s the way it is and did not apologize. We had to keep asking for our water glasses to be filled.NO ONE ever refilled our glasses without asking.

Ambience was lovely. Our seating for three in a comfy booth was perfect . The waitress and the maître d’ attentive and friendly . Unfortunately, we were all disappointed in the quality of our food. My fish was rather gamey. My husband‘s lamb shank dish was a bit bland. My son’s filet mignon was not very thick and seemed a little tough to cut. I had seen such wonderful reviews and looked forward to my husbands birthday here…But we were very disappointed. HOWEVER! The onion soup and desserts (crème brûlée, and Apple tart ) were very good.

Le Petite is always consistently good. My sole complaint last night was that my husband snarfed the wonderful grand mariner soufflé so fast my friend and I only got one bite! Love this place!

Hadn’t dined here for a while. Large number of choices. Two entrees were disappointing. The steak ordered was tough and chewy and the mussels were all very small and overcooked. These two orders were disappointing. Service was not very attentive. No one checked on us during the meal and we needed to get their attention to fill water glasses. I expected better attention.
