- DDebsVIPLondon •49 reviews5.0Dined on Feb 25, 2025I've been coming here for about 15 years and love it. I follow a gluten free diet and was thrilled to see that their Fried Brie starter is now GF. I don't know what they now coat it in but it was so much better than the previous recipe. Very light & delicious! I also had the Filet de Poulet Farçi and it was such a generous portion that I couldn't quite finish it but it was fabulous. I highly recommend.More infoLa Petite AubergePrice: Moderate• French• Angel•4.4
