So delicious! The highlight of the visit was the incredible food and the chef who came out to personally thank me. He was so kind and accommodating! The Chilean sea bass was to die for as was the bread, which was made in house! I enjoyed each course.

This place is Phenomenal!! They currently have a preset 5 course ‘Chef Tasting’ Menu that was to Die for! From beginning to end this place did Not disappoint! The environment was cozy yet elegant. Every table around us was there for their Wives birthday so I’m guessing this is the place to go to impress your wife 1 thing I feel should be mentioned is that the sitting was 2 and a 1/2 hours, so Plan Ahead! It does Not feel like it at all. The corse are very well timed. And the staff was wonderful! I’d love to come back and see this place on full effect one day!

What a wonderful place! As a Belgian I felt right at home here. They make delicious bread that’s authentic to the Fench recipe and their food is true to the French cuisine as well. It’s a fixed 4 course menu with different choices for appertizer, entree and dessert. It’s a great place for a date or cozy meal!

All 3 of us were very happy with every course! How often does that happen? Not only was the service excellent but the chef/owner came out to say hello and happy birthday to my dad. Wouldn’t have changed a thing, really a terrific meal.

The prefix menu was fabulous many choices for each of our four courses. We started with our appetizer the cauliflower soup and the escargot both which were fabulous as shown in the picture. The bread was organic, homemade each day and warmed when it came to the table.It was excellent, both in texture and taste. For our main course I had the rack of lamb and my girlfriend had the New York strip steak both which were cooked to perfection, excellent flavor and medium rare as requested buy both of us. Our dessert was homemade and excellent as shown in the second picture. I highly recommend this restaurant it was our first time there and the Romantic atmosphere was awesome. We had great service and they were very attentive to our needs,I plan on returning on a regular basis.

Chef Roy is so incredibly kind and talented. My family moved away from CT years ago, but we still always talk about how much we missing coming here! The service, food, and atmosphere are incomparable. You will never ever regret dining at Le Petit.

Excellent from the start to the finish. The fixed menu has only a few but excellent options (which we prefer over a menu with 100s of options). Everything is fresh and made at the premises. The wine list is so short, but just right and excellent. Good service and a very correct price. We will be back for sure!

Such high expectations….so disappointing. The portions are NOT French portions (not particularly good either) expecting a palate pleasing experience …you will be sorely disappointed. Listening to the surrounding tables it seemed to be more of a status symbol to say you ate at “le petit cafe” in my world I wanted to tell everyone about the most amazing meal. Unfortunately that was not to be.

REALLY spectacular food, atmosphere, and staff! Chef Roy and his team have really created a sensational menu that is truly timeless and fresh. The sea bass is by far one of the best fish dishes that I have ever had in my life!! Though it’s a fixed price menu, for less than $60 per person, not including wine and tip, you get 4 incredible courses, which leave you feeling full and satisfied. If you are looking for that perfect spot to have a romantic night out, or you are just looking for an excellent splurge meal, this is the place to go.
