WHOA! HOW COME I NEVER HEARD OR BEEN HERE EARLIER? I decided to come here a random day when I was around the neighborhood and happen to see the restaurant. I remember hearing a lot of friends recommending it so even though i was grabbing dinner in a couple hours, I figure i had to come in and check out this cute little place. Located on the corner in a triangular spot, Le Petit Triangle Cafe is so cute and welcoming. I love the chill atmosphere! Anyhow I ordered hot choloate and crepe with avacado, swiss cheese and egg. The hot chocolate i loved-- not too sweet and not too bland. The crepe i loveddd!!! The only thing was, I wish they would recommend us a cheese. I asked what type of cheese the waitress thinks is best and her answer was "i dont know. up to you." so we got swiss... and the swiss cheese was just wayy too much for the crepe. It was a bit overpowering. Either way, i'm coming back here! I love the atmosphere and i love the options! read more

Not sure what I can say about this adorable little cafe that hasn't already been said. So, I'll keep it short to five points. 1) It's cozy. You'll want to take off your coat carefully so you don't inadvertently smack another diner in the face. 2) The Pomegranate Iced Tea is all sorts of awesome. Get it. 3) The menu is nice and diverse from sweet crepes to plenty of savory options. There's something to satisfy anyone. 4) The Chicken & Chutney crepe was a fantastic consistency and filled hunks of bird and topped with a flavorful but almost too sweet chutney. There's a large pool of the sweet stuff on the side - go easy. 5) Service was efficient but not overly friendly. This didn't rub me the wrong way per se, but if you're seeking that super welcoming neighborhood spot, I didn't get that vibe from Le Petit Triangle. In terms of crepes, Le Petit serves 'em up right. read more

Came for brunch on a Saturday. Excellent service, great food, comfortably socially distanced from other diners. Had the poulet cordon bleu sandwich with a side of ratatouille (mixed veggies) - would definitely order again, delicious, cooked to perfection. Also shared a crepe with the table which was perhaps the best crepe I've ever had! Will be back! read more

Food was great. The service was OK but I see everybody was running around working hard so maybe they were short staffed. All friendly. The food was yummy. They have things for ( really yummy things) grandmother to little kids. A lot of selection and it was so hard to only pick one dish. I hope to go back and try the others I cannot eat. read more

If you really want an authentic French bistro dining experience come to La Petit Triangle. Also, you should make reservations if possible because this place is so popular if we didn't make brunch reservations we heard people saying walk ins were an hour or more wait. It is so worth it. An open kitchen let's you watch the crepe magic happening. Friendly and knowledgeable wait staff! There are also some vegan and GF options uf your guests need it but we loved the simple, French style bistro food, very down to earth like you stopped in for a bite while walking around Paris. I think for the food quality and service price is exceptional! Do yourself a favor and try. I think this would also make a really classy and romantic first date. read more

Wow. Food is French and fantastic. Friendly staff Good music. Perfect little place with lots of character. read more

Food is always amazing. I was looking for a place that services crepes and they are definitely delicious and worth the price.

Wow!!! We loved this restaurant- excellent, friendly service, nice ambiance, great food and the BEST crepes I have ever had! Thank you, Yelp, for helping us find this gem of a cafe! Most important things first- I had the chocolate lovers crepe made with French dark chocolate, and added strawberries. Wow. This is how crepes should be made. I couldn't believe how delicious it was- so much chocolate but not too much, if that's possible. :) My husband had the peanut butter crepe with bananas and French dark chocolate and loved it too. We each ate every bite even though we had dinner too. I had a Limota, which is San Pellegrino, and I know it's not unique to this restaurant but I really liked it- sparkling lemonade. My husband had a Black Jack Porter beer from Left Hand Brewing Company and thought it was good. We were a little disappointed that they didn't offer bread as you waited for your meal, but in the end we were glad because then we had room for dessert! I had the garlic braised pork shoulder which is served over buttermilk mashed potatoes and perfectly cooked green beans. It was really good but pretty plain. My husband had the steak and boursin and enjoyed it. This is a small (petite) restaurant that seems very popular- we were glad we made reservations. I enjoyed getting to see the open kitchen and watch everything happen. If we lived in Ohio we would definitely make this a regular spot. I'm going to try to convince my husband to come back again in the next day and a half before we return to Illinois from vacation! :) read more

I was in the area and looking for some dessert. This was first time here. I have to say the high level of customer service I received for just grabbing dessert to go was fabulous. I was offered a table to sip at while I waited for my order. Each team member that came in my vicinity, acknowledged me. This cozy little of spot felt some welcoming. And the lemon and berries crapes was outstanding! I will be back for a full meal and dessert! read more

Fell in love with this place the first time I walked in. I went back last night around 8pm with a great friend and we had an amazing dinner. This petit french cafe is one-of-a-kind here in Cleveland. A great date-spot with amazing food and the most authentically french menu I've seen since moving back from New York. The ambiance is cozy, francais, cafe with seating for about 20 in the main dining room. There is also a banquet area in the back. The kitchen is open and right in front of you as you walk through the door! The chef and hostess are incredibly friendly, giving the cafe a neighborly feel to it. Soft cafe jazz plays in the background, with some french folk tunes accompanying. Food-wise, absolutely delicious. I had braised lamb shank, she had escargos' and frommage bleu salad. We ended with creme brulee and bananas foster. I accompanied my meal with a delicious treat, leftover Christmas Ale that was hiding in the cooler. She had a delicious Hot Rum Apple Cider. If you can't decide what to eat, go with a crepe, any crepe will do. They are all incredibly delicious. We were the only two in the restaurant for a while. Single patrons came in for a quick dinner and drink sporadically throughout the night. I HIGHLY recommend Le Petit for any kind of cozy time with amazing food and equally amazing service. read more

We found this place on accident. On a trip to Ohio city for some brunch, our original destination was jam packed with a line out the door. So we drove around and happened upon this wonderful little cafe. This is the cutest breakfast place I have ever been to. It's very small and runs to a point in the back, hence the name "triangle" cafe. There is only about 15 places to sit and a couple more outside. I'm assuming the earlier you get here the better. The kitchen is right in the middle of everything which I thought was pretty cool. They sat us in the back and there was some very nice French music playing in the background. Perfect ambiance for a brunch. I then ordered and ate almost all of what I will describe as the best crepe I have ever had. Hands down, period, goodnight. It was stuffed with Nutella, strawberries, and bananas then topped with whipped cream. Just delightful. My boyfriend had the quiche special and raved! Especially about the cinnamon raisin toast it was served with. The service was wonderful. It was just the perfect start to our jam packed day and I'm so glad we found this little place. I will be recommending it to anyone who will listen to me! read more

Oh yeah, this will most likely become one of my favorite restaurants in Cleveland. Managed to stave off my hunger this morning until 10 AM when they finally opened and boy am I glad I waited! A small, well-appointed cafe with the kitchen in full view of all patrons. I love this aspect because you can watch your food being prepared from fresh ingredients right in front of you, mad kudos to the chefs here for that... I was seated right away by a very friendly waitress who I look forward to seeing again. However, be warned, come early or make reservations, as I was enjoying breakfast the place filled up fast! Since it was breakfast, I only skimmed the drink menu but it look like they have a nice variety and will be sure to come back for dinner. Now, this hooked me...."pumpkin steamer", anyone who know me at all will be able to tell you that all things pumpkin-related are pretty much my favorite things to eat so I had to ask the waitress about it. They make their own pumpkin purée with spices and then steam it with milk, what the?? This is insane! It was heavenly, it was the closest thing I could think of to drinking pumpkin pie....I don't even want to know how many calories was in this because I will be coming back for more pumpkin-y goodness. But really, in a French restaurant, who really pays attention to calories? Since I was in the mood for French toast this morning that's what I got, the stuffed version....so yes, quelle horreur, I skipped on the crepes, but I will be back for them, and my mission will be to try every savory and sweet crepe on that menu! The French toast was phenomenal and exactly what I was looking for this morning, spot on. And did I mention they have a giant jar of Nutella as big as my head on the counter?? Bonus! read more

Le Petit Triangle Cafe - French Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Celebrated a family birthday this past Saturday evening, ten of us ranging from 75 to 6. The food was superb. Not surprisingly, everyone enjoyed his or her meal even after polishing off two charcuterie boards. Four of the five grandchildren experienced their first taste of French cooking and loved it. Everything, from lamb shank to the duck to the steak to the crepes, was delicious. Our personable server, Hannah, never rushed us and made recommendations that were spot on. I heartily recommend this restaurant. I know my wife and I will return. Tom Donovan Bedford read more

my absolute favorite brunch place in Cleveland! have been there a couple of times and it just gets better ever time I go. I usually opt for the croque madam or monsieur and try to split something sweet (best of both). At my most recent visit I got a blueberry French toast and while it was delicious, the cream cheese wasn't very sweet so adding some sweetness to that would have made it even better! read more

Torn between a 3 and 4 rating. The food was definitely a four. Croque Provençal with fried egg, pictures shown, and smoked salmon omelette were so very well presented and thought out. Delicious! Ditto for the pumpkin steamer. Wait staff are SO nice... Really the sweetest girls... But the wait for coffee, or a refill on coffee, will drive you nuts. Same with the bill. Tough to get out of this place. If you have all day and just want to linger, this would be a four star for sure. If you have someplace to be, this is not your stop today. read more

I got shakshuka here and it was just okay. I was here with friends I hadn't seen in a while, and normally that makes me like restaurants more for sentimental reasons, but this place just wasn't that much of a standout for me. Maybe they'd do better with a crepe or omelette, but the Shakshuka wasn't blowing me away. The service was pretty slow for the size of the restaurant, but it was Saturday brunch which is understandably a busy time. read more

What an adorable place! I absolutely love brunch. This place has a few unique options, as well as the standard brunch fare. I ordered the spinach, tomato and chevre omelet with egg whites. It was good, a standard omelet. I actually had a little accident during the meal, in which the entire pepper grinder exploded on my plate. It was quite embarrassing. Luckily, the majority landed on an empty part of the plate. When the waitress saw it, she was more than happy to bring me a new dish, but I had already finished most of the meal. My friend got the stuffed french toast. It was delicious! Not overpoweringly sweet, and the tang of the chevre with the sweetness of the raisin walnut bread and maple syrup was amazing. Dessert was a chocolate lover's crepe with nutella, strawberries, bananas and pecans. Delicious! My one thing with the place is that it's pretty small. We were seated in a corner of the restaurant, which really should have only had one table instead of the three or four that it held. I accidentally nudged the table next to me walking out as well. I would like to think it was because the place was cramped, rather than my hips. I shall go with the former. Anyway, good brunch with some unique options. Try it out! read more

Le Petit Triangle Cafe - Turtle crepe - French Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

After a long night out in Cleveland, I was ready for a filling, yet delicious breakfast. After some Yelping, I found this gem and was very glad I did. The place is quite charming, and reminds me of a small French cafe. They asked if we had reservations, which we clearly did not, and the wait for inside was about 45min on a Sunday at noon. Luckily, the outdoor seating was first come first serve, and with it being such a nice day we lucked out and grabbed a spot. My boyfriend and I ordered cappuccinos, but we were a bit overwhelmed with them since they actually came in a soup bowl - with two handles and all. It seemed to taste more like a latte since it was predominantly milk. I think I should have just gotten a coffee with a side of cream at that point. We split a fresh pain au chocolat and that was delicious; fresh out of the oven and the chocolate was still warm inside. For my entree, I ordered the croque norvegian which was basically a croque monsieur except it came with smoked salmon on it instead of ham. This was very delicious and rather large. It came with a side of potatoes but I subbed it with fruit, and was really impressed with the mixed fruit array. My boyfriend got the meatball sandwich and it wasn't bad. The meatballs themselves were a little dry, but overall it was good. I was pretty happy we found this gem in Cleveland, and it is located next to a quiet park. I liked that it wasn't exactly in a busy area, which gave it all the more charm. read more

This was a great place for dinner. We came across the restaurant while walking in the area. Originally thinking it was a coffee shop. The menu has a wide range of selections, many we couldn't pronounce, at reasonable prices. The staff was helpful and provided great input on the various options we were looking at. My duck was made perfectly. My husband was impressed with his salmon salad. The flavors were matched and each mouthful was a delicious experience. I don't rave much about restaurants as I expect them to be good. This place went beyond good. read more

Placed a very large to-go order only to be told they were "not doing" certain entrees for carry-out. When questioned why, the reply was "they only had 4 more of the duck and lamb left and they were saving them for the in house dining". Apparently my carry-out money spends differently? Ridiculous customer "service"! I will be happy to spend my money elsewhere. read more

Thank you for your angle on our petite triangle dining experience. You are totally correct we arrived at 7:30 and imposed on you wrapping up your night at 9 pm . Accept apologies to inconvenience you and your short hand kitchen staff . It would have been better to let us know you had a busy night and were short handed instead of taking our money with all due respect . As for the social distance requirements we understand your concerns not having the server frequent the table. It's unfortunate your lighting was too dark where we were seated and she missed a water glass . Thank you for your reply. Appreciated! read more

Stopped here for brunch on Monday right after opening. The experience was excellent! Our waitress was polite and prompt with taking our drink order and answering questions. Ordered the croque Norvegien, pumpkin steamer and split the Nutella crepe with my brunch buddy. Everything was tasty and fresh. This was my third trip here and I'll definitely be back! Never had a bad dish. If your pick doesn't come with them, I recommend adding the side of roasted potatoes-- so delicious! One tip; if you visit in the winter, bring a light jacket or sweater. If you're seated in the smaller, front section, it can get a little chilly when the door opens and closes. read more

The food gets 5 stars and its amazing but the service wow was it bad. It took a long time to get my food and my drink refillls were well non existent... I may try this place again but if the service is bad I'm not coming back. Bedt menu item was the escargot and the madam croquet. read more

Best brunch spot in Cleveland for authentic French Food. Make a reservation cause the dining rooms is petit.

Absolutely one of my favorite restaurants in all of Cleveland. The food is authentic, delicious, and fresh - you can see the chef right when you walk in the front door preparing food. This place somehow manages to feel fancy and relaxed at the same time - you can show up in jeans or a ball gown and feel comfortable in either one. I ordered the smoked trout and lentil salad which is easily a 10/10. I've had other dishes here as well I'd rate just as high. Everyone here is friendly and genuinely wants you to relax and enjoy a lovely meal. read more

A Sunday afternoon brunch was outside at this wonderful restaurant in Ohio City. Selections include everything you would expect from croissants to crepes, even gluten free crepes and other selections. I have celiac disease and they address it with care. My friend had no diet restrictions and enjoyed the vegetarian gazpacho and croissant breakfast sandwich. I had the delicious bolinhos de bacalao, like a crab cake but made with cod and gluten free and an vegetarian omelette. Excellent. read more

Absolutely charming place. The homemade lemon curd was delicious. Crepe it was on was maybe a bit "eggy" for my tastes- but not enough to dock a star. Staff was very friendly. read more

After seeing pictures of the menu and the food, and feeling a little nostalgic about my Switzerland trip ages ago, I decided to come here for some French-inspired food. There are tons of seating inside and outside, not to mention that the wait staff really pays attention to giving customers some intimacy while dining here. I ordered the ratatouille crepe with buckwheat flour and extra ham. Honestly, I had pretty high expectations, because the crepes looked amazing. However, on m first bite, I was a little disappointed by how bitter the crepe was. I appreciate that they used all buckwheat flour (as opposed to mixing it with all-purpose flour), but I've never had a buckwheat crepe before that tasted quite as sour. On the bright side, the ham was pretty good. However, I didn't think there was much taste to the ratatouille portion of my crepe filling. Overall, for $11, I thought the food wasn't too bad, but I have definitely had better-tasting buckwheat crepes before. read more

We 4 arrived during a slamming lunch crowd and we waited a bit to be seated. Totally worth the wait.

Charming staff and small-town service. Easy street parking. Recommended. read more

Le Petit Triangle is one of my favorite places for brunch on the weekends. The Chevre Strawberry crepes are definitely worth a try, and so is the Croque Norvegien. If it's a particularly hot day, you're probably better off sitting outside because the air conditioning inside is kind of weak. read more

The menu looked awesome, but the food was disappointingly bland. The breakfast options that included brie had very little brie on them and the crepe dishes were very dry. Again, I'm hoping that we caught it just on an off day, because I liked what I saw on the menu. But I probably wouldn't go back for breakfast. read more

Such a cute and intimate spot!! Drinks A1, food was delicious, service was friendly perfect for a brunch date!!

Favorite brunch spot in Cleveland. Such a cute little spot. The lattes are amazing. I almost always croque Monsieur and split a chocolate croissant with my husband. Such a perfect combo. Make sure to call ahead and put your name in. It's small inside and busy on the weekends. read more

I liked this little French creperie in Ohio City. My friends and I went on a relaxed, August evening to this little corner cafe. My favorite was the chicken chutney crepe with a regular crepe (not impressed with the buckwheat.) It came with delicious lentils and a good amount of mango chutney. Their mojitos are really refreshing as well! Mmmmm. read more

I'm totally in love with the vibe: Cozy, unpretentious, classic French bistro. The food is always simple, but well-made. It has a tendency to be super busy during brunch, so if you think of it, try to make a reservation beforehand. If you have to wait for a table, you might be stuck in an awkwardly cramped entry-way. I actually prefer coming here for a weeknight dinner, as it's less crowded but still romantic. Try the salmon salad if you're looking for a light bite. The duck is also fantastic. Finish it off with a dark chocolate strawberry crepe to get more of a balanced meal. ;) read more

It was alright. Kind of a fancy ish place. Food was good. It's really dark inside the restaurant. The service was slow. They couldn't split the check for 6 or more people. There was an automatic gratuity also that was 30%. I got the Pâté which was alright. Probably wouldn't go there again except for the crepes. And definitely not with a big group. read more

Le Petit Triangle Cafe serves excellent crepes. Their crepes are large, well folded, and stuffed full of goodness. First, I had the Mushroom Roquefort Crepe. The creminis paired very well with the Roquefort cheese, and best of all, the crepe was stuffed full of creminis and cheese. Next, I had a sweet crepe, which was filled with lemon tart. Once again, I got a hefty amount of filling, which paired very well with the bland crepe. Service, however, was a bit slow. Despite the restaurant being only a quarter full, it took a bit of waiting for my friend and I to get our crepes. Other than that, this place is a solid choice for French food! read more
