Really excellent French food. Really good. The bacaloa was amazing. The pear salad was great. One of us had pork shank which was wonderful. My order got confused. (Ordered duck. Got beef bourignon). But the beef was exceptional. Very flavorful. Highly recommend. read more

I think I'm in love with this place. Everything about it is absolutely adorable. The cozy interior, the open kitchen, the cute little patio, the friendly servers...I don't know why I haven't been here before now, but I regret that so much time passed. I had the Ratatouille Crepe with buckwheat flower and a side of roasted potatoes, both of which were absolutely delicious. The flavors in the crepe were perfectly balanced and nothing overwhelmed or overpowered anything else. There was sauce on top but it wasn't soupy or overwhelming. I don't remember the French name, but my friend got the ham and cheese sandwich and was also very happy with his choice. There's also a fantastic cocktail menu with ample choices. I started with the St. Germain and Champagne cocktail which was delicious (and I don't even care for champagne all that much, but I wanted to try something different) and also got a glass of the Sangria, which was phenomenal as well. Without the drinks, the crepe and the side of potatoes were only $12, so not bad considering the decent portion size. Don't expect leftovers, but I didn't feel like I gorged either. It was just the right size. I'll be honest and say that I'm not at all familiar with French food so I can't speak to it's authenticity. But regardless, if you like tasty food in general this place is definitely worth checking out. The only warning is that it's on the small side, so I'd make reservations if you're going to go on a weekend. I'll definitely be back! read more

Really adorable place. You walk in and are instantly transported to a quaint little cafe in France. I like that the kitchen is completely open. Brunch was good, but not mind blowing. I did not get a crepe, which I regret after reading so many wonderful reviews about them. This is something they do very well. Next time I go, I will definitely get one. I had a nice salmon salad which was very tasty and my partner ordered the brunch filet, which came out over the temperature we requested. No matter, he still enjoyed it. Our server was extremely busy and we waited a while for menus, but I didn't mind. The atmosphere is very stimulating and great for people watching. When she did make it over, she was very sweet and we got our food quickly. I will be back. read more

Crépes are delish here. French press for 2 is a deal. Steak & eggs = great taste, great deal

All in all, we had a pretty good experience. I was craving good french food and the triangle did help with that craving. The only downside to the evening was our service. Our server wasn't very friendly, I'm unsure if he was having a bad night or what but, he just didn't seem like he wanted to be there. The food, drinks and atmosphere was great! We will definitely be back. I'm looking forward to it! read more

This place has good food. Not unbelievable though. And to be totally honest and kinda harsh - nothing compared to Lucky's. The stuffed french toast was good and not too sweet. Coffee was average. Service was good. The Croque Monsieur w the egg on top was good (there is a pic of it from someone else). It's worth going but I doubt I will go back. read more

Update: Le petit triangle dissappoints. Now I'm not one to pass quick judgement. . ok well I am but not on a place I have loved for so long as Le petit triangle, but I think at this juncture I have no choice. Recently while there I found my only thoughts to be Julia Child would be rolling in her grave were she to know about this disasterous french cuisine. First of all our service. . if you could call it service was insanely slow. It took 15 minutes for the waiter to get our drink order. . .and they were NOT that busy. 30 minutes after that they came for the food order. Then the food took nearly 45 MINUTES. I ordered a croque monsieur and the boy ordered the steak roquefert. Both plates were drenched in the beige creme sauce (aka gravy) and it was LUMPY EWW EWW EWW! There was way way way too much ham on my sandwich I had to remove more than half of it. Then the potatoes oh they made me sad. They were undercooked. . . and lacking any butter. and in french cooking you can never have too much butter, Right, Julia? The boy's steak which he ordered medium rare was gray. GRAY. yup that's right GRAY. It was medium well at best. And the Roquefert. Now the second cannon of french cuisine is bring on the stinky cheese not um whats that little lump on my steak? There was maybe 1gram of Roquefert. I don't know if this is now the exception or the norm but it will definitely make me think twice before dining at le petit triangle again :(. Who ever said you can't teach and old dog new tricks? Le Oui Oui Cafe is revamped Le Oui Oui Cafe recently changed ownership. The chef from Le Oui Oui bought it rom the previous owners and voila Le petit triangle cafe is born. This is one of the most impresive changes I have ever seen in a single restaurant. It's still the small cozy little eatery it always was. There are still the same 7-8 tables most of which only seat 2. It is still quiet, romantic and full of atmosphere but now I think the largest change was the feeling. Le Oui Cafe was a small french restaurant trying to be something it was not. Now Le Petit Triangle Cafe gives you the feeling you are in a small street cafe in Lyon. The service is definitely in the french tradition. They are very attentive and more knowledgable than average. The only thing that seems to be missing is the mural on the wall. The menu revamp upon the renaming was amazing. It is no longer a creperie that happens to serve fondue. This is now a true cafe. The flavors are better paired (no more rum raisin crepe with banana), clean, fresh, and crisp. A vast improvement over the old. What I recommend Ham and Brie Croissant Artichoke Mushroom Crepe ANY of the dessert crepes Coffee Wine Hit or Miss Larger groups Avoid Like the Plague hmm rum raisin crepes. they were gross. On a side note they do monthly wine tasting or beer tasting dinner . Always a good time. read more

If you are craving crepes you should come get some here. They are really good. However, the breakfast items are overpriced and they lack flavor or a reason for me to choose it as a breakfast spot. Their sandwich items are just not worth the try, maybe an omelet would have been a better option but we all ordered different types of sandwiches and they were all lacking in flavor. One had a really runny egg that was pretty much raw (you could see through the egg white) so my friend had a hard time eating it. The service on a Saturday morning was really slow but it was full so I understand, however we were all just a little disappointed that we waited that long for a just ok breakfast. read more

This is the most adorable little cafe. It feels like an escape from Cleveland right into a little side street in Paris. My friend refuses to eat breakfast anywhere else when she visits. She swears by the lemon curd crepes. I am more of a savory gal and go for the tomato, spinach and chèvre omelet. read more

My little sister used to wash dishes here. She invited me for a lunch one day and it was fantastic! I remember she said you have to make a reservation, so keep that in mind. It's a tiny place! But the food is amazing! I had the Croque Monsieur and it was divine. Great for a date night or maybe a brunch for two. Don't miss this hidden gem! read more

Was looking forward to eating here, got there and they were busy and waited 10 minutes for a table which was fine. Ordered coffee which was great and our breakfast, it took over an hour to get our food. I don't mind waiting but over an hour for breakfast food is not good. The food when we got it was very good and I would have given 5 stars but that's just too long to wait for an order. read more

After making reservations and being sat on time, it took 45 minutes to get our drink order. Only after I had to ask the waiter where they were. He came back and said he lost the drink order and "what was it again"? Although he said the kitchen has the food order. Another 15 minutes later, I asked for him to check on the food. He never came back. Finally, my daughter got his attention and he proceeded to tell us the kitchen lost the order. Complete BS - this guy had several opportunities to get it right and he thought avoiding the table and waiting for us to walk out was the appropriate way to service customers. After and hour and twenty minutes we let. The guy should be fired. If that was my restaurant, I'd be mortified! read more

I liked the atmosphere at Le Petit, but each time I have gone back the food has gotten more and more average. Its not bad, but there are plenty of better restaurants that have similar atmospheres. What really threw me off was when I saw the cook (Since the kitchen in in the main dining room) heat up my meal in the microwave. Sorry but I dont think Ill be back anytime soon. read more

Apparently they do not take walk ins even though they have open tables. It looked like the staff just didn't know how to handle it. Get a reservation or stay home. read more

SUMMARY: Food was ok; service was iffy. Not a place I'm running back to. FULL STORY: Came here for lunch with a friend recently. The place is small -- maybe 12 or so tables. I guess the atmosphere fits with the neighborhood cafe idea... it's definitely an old building with tight seating, so I would come in expecting that. It didn't seem busy the day we went -- there were 4 other occupied tables. Our orders were simple -- a salad and a crepe... but it took over 20 minutes for drinks and almost 45 minutes for any food, without an update. That was surprising given the staff-to-customer ratio that afternoon. I thought the food was alright... nothing bad, but nothing outstanding. I was at least expecting some great bread, but it seemed pretty average. The coffee was good (Rising Star apparently)! What detracted most from the experience was the negative attitude from staff members... it came off kind of passive-aggressive for no clear reason, which hasn't been typical of my experience at other local restaurants around Cleveland. That was a bummer. If you're ever around DC and love French food, check out Bistrot du Coin! That place is amazing and very authentic! Note: street parking read more

Cold and dreary out...but warm and comforting in La Petit. After working up an appetite at a 5K in the rain, my pal and I were in the mood for a cozy breakfast. La Petit did not disappoint. I had the Croque Monsieur and my friend had a dish with the chicken sausage and eggs with a mustard sauce. Each was served with a side of potatoes with fresh herbs. Cleveland needs more of these chef driven dining venues and I hope this one thrives. read more

Cute little French Cafe. Great Service, Friendly Staff, Delicious Crepes, Coffee and Egg Dishes!

Other than the always amazing food and croissants I like this place because it's open all day long so no matter what time of day even the odd hours of 2-4PM when all good food places are closed this place is still serving amazing food. I also like this place because the prices for the plates are the same for lunch and dinner. They don't put a little more food on your plate and charge you more just because it's dark outside. With roughly 10 tables this pace is very charming is romantic. read more

This is such an adorable little restaurant. Even more importantly - the food is good!! The croque Monsieur is delicious, as is the French toast. If you go for something savory, definitely save room for a sweet crepe to split! I've been here several times, and have loved everything I've had. I can't wait for it to warm up so I can sit outside on their sidewalk patio! read more

I came here with high expectations and a recommendation from my friends. The first thing I noticed was that the server was friendly but due to the busy environment of the restaurant, the service was rather slow. The food came out after an hour of ordering. I ordered the steak and eggs brunch item. The potatoes were way too burnt and over cooked. The steak was similar to a USDA Select cut. It wasn't that bad. However beware when you plan to go here with a group of more than 6 people. They will not take separate checks like other restaurants. The waiter was rather reluctant and unwilling to give her best service to us. This place was honestly not worth the hassle and 3 hour wait time for the mediocre food and choice of service. I would recommend this place for someone willing to try an upscale mom and pop diner. read more

We have eaten here many times and it is always great! Food and service! The specials are really tasty but if they don't sound good they're regular menu items - from salads to simple French entrées are great too. During busy times, call ahead for a table. read more

What a terrible experience my girlfriend and I had on 1/23/2016 for dinner. We had reservations for 6:00pm. It took some time to get our order in but it was no problem because we were not in any hurry. My friends dinner was very disappointing she claimed it was cooked to long with a burnt taste to it a seafood crepe dish. The crepe was terrible she claimed. My duck dish was ok nothing to write home about, the only problem was the vegetables that were on top of the casserole duck was cold. We nicely explained to the waiter/ manager about our meals and he just brushed it off, truly didn't care less. My friend never even ate half her dinner. We had to flag down the waiter for another drink and order dessert. It took some time, but again we were not in a hurry and the crepes were worth waiting for. The crepes were very good. Soon as we finished our crepes and still had more then half a drink left for both of us, the manager asked if we liked the crepes, we said yes and then told us we need to pay our bill because they need the table because 2 people waiting for it. I was so insulted, my friend and I stated we still had our drinks. Didn't seem to matter. I have never been asked to leave any restaurant before because they have someone waiting for a table. We left pretty upset and disgusted. When I went to get my coat in the other room the booths were open and I did not see anyone waiting to be seated. I will never recommend or go back to Le Petit again. I called on Monday to speak to the manager and stated that I had some concerns, never received a phone call from the manager. Thanks Ryan L and whoever the manager was that evening for a terrible experience. Melinda read more

They have good food but there are a lot of changes in the recent past. 1. They stopped serving savory crepes for dinner (hence why I will never eat dinner there again). 2. I saw a cook drink on the job. 3. My friend had a raw shrimp in his meal (even I know how to cook shrimp-not that hard) Overall, something fishy is going on with the place and that's a shame because it was one of my go-to spots. read more

Food was incredible but took an extremely long time to be brought out to us. Ordered the French toast and a salmon omelette, so nothing that should have taken more than 20 minutes. Waited maybe at least a half hour for it. Was also told they needed our table at a certain time which was sort of uncomfortable. But,the atmosphere is very nice and the food did taste very good so 4 stars!! read more

I love coming here with my mom or my friend Kirsten! We have the best time when we go. We feel like we are on vacation when we go. It is just so different. The food is awesome. The croissants are amazing along with the Beouff Bourgonion (incredible). The service is sometimes slow because they don't have many servers on. But other than that I go probably once or twice a month....I love it here ( i already said that). :) Enjoy! read more

Experience a wonderful brunch here with my family. Great menu, service, and atmosphere for that perfect little unique cafe.

I love it! It has a great intimate French bistro feeling, and wonderful food as well. The service was a little slow, but the food and drinks made up for it. I'd definitely recommend it for a good brunch spot. read more

I visit Petit regularly. Having lived in Paris for a couple of years, I am always nostalgic for comfort foods such as theirs. Everything from the crêpe to the niçoise to the rickety chairs and occasional cold breeze from the front door are perfectly reminiscent of my time in Paris, being dragged by my partner into little random bistros. The service is polite, very traditional in that it is not smothering. The kitchen staff always thank me for coming in, which I appreciate. The place is small, they are busy, but they remember you and add a nice personal touch whether you eat there daily or simply once a month. Don't be afraid to try something you wouldn't usually choose. Everything is well-executed and lovely! read more

Atmosphere was cute, but the food was mediocre. Would not recommend ordering any of their omelettes because they were sub-par and not worth the price I paid. read more

Very nice but disappointed. Still, planning on returning because I think this restaurant has some potential. Our waiter Tom, was such a delight, friendly and knowledgeable. However, the chef did not live up to professional standards. The Cassoulet I would rate a solid D. Not just because it was served cold and way over salted. Rather because, it lacked the LOVE this dish is supposed to bring with tender hunks of meat, sausages, duck, and a creamy texture of confee layered beans with a toasted bread crumb topping. Instead the dish served, was a disaster. It was so bad, the Cassoulet police should force them to improve or cite them and threaten and never to allow them to serve this classic again unless they are on a penal colony island. To describe our Cassoulet, think Risotto only with decayed beans, mixed with tiny, incey-mincey silvers of meat served, in a plain white bowl lacking everything from taste and presentation to something akin to what you would find in the back of a refrigerator of an office lunch room. 2nd. Entrée: Saumon au Pernod: Rated C= Pernod, (an anis-flavored liquer) is a layer of flavor to be expected in this dish. Who knows maybe the chef who over salted our Cassoulet forgot to add this note to the dish? The Salmon was broiled, a little over cooked, and served on a small bed of lentils with baby asparagus crying for a Pernod sauce the chef decided to abandon. The menu looks impressive and for this reason, I will give this restaurant two more chances. Planning to try the Brunch and a Dinner this summer. Hopefully, the Chef will be on with an A=Game. read more

I am amazed by the good reviews here. I've been to Paris at least 15 times; summered in the South of France. Lived in NY for 20 years. This was hands down the worse "French"food I have ever tasted. We went here for brunch - I had the Smoked Salmon Omelette. The fish was clearly from a pack because it was quite salty. They added cheese to the eggs - d'affinois - and the cheese had the rind on it. It was inedible. My boyfriend - who has a flat in Paris - couldn't choke down his crepe. The waitress made an error with our wine order. The homemade bloody mary was flavorless. And the pièce de résistance? The chef with the braided beard wiped his nose twice as he was plating food. If you don't know french food, run to this place because you won't know the difference. read more

Great brunch spot. Ohio city has a wealth of brunch places but the majority of them are a bit overpriced for what you get. This place however is as good or not better than the other options and also modestly priced. It's a little on the small side as far as room but we had no problem getting a spot and it fits the French cafe style pretty well. read more

Came for lunch last week and got french onion soup and crock provencal with fried egg. Both delicious. Cute outdoor seating area but small. Took a star away because this drunk guy wouldn't put his cigarette down the entire meal. Would come back. read more

AMAZING CROISSANTS, best in the city. It's small so expect a wait but very good brunch spot. The smoked salmon omelette is incredible!

Went to brunch here last weekend. I was looking for a place that had a great Saturday brunch, most places have a smaller/simpler menu for Saturdays and that is so disappointing. But not at Le Petit! I'd heard great things and they were all so true!!! The coffee was excellent. And they had a full brunch menu. Very french inspired. We had the house sausage and lemon crepes to share. The crepes were AMAZING. The challah french toast, croque norvegien, croque provencal were all very good too. I'm more of a savoury person but the crepes are what I will come back for! Can't wait to fall in love with more items on their menu! read more

Best brunch spot in Ohio city. Friendly servers and great food. Make a reservation or you will have to wait over an hour. This place is extremely popular with the luxury foodie crowd. read more

I tried this restaurant for the 1st time after shopping at the West Side Market. I sat outside and ordered the apple and blue cheese salad with balsamic dressing, which was one of the best salads I've ever had. Lots of blue cheese, which I love. I'd never had a bellini before so I figured, what the heck...and discovered that I love those too! The only negative was that the service was on the slow side. However, that won't stop me from coming back; I'll just bring something to read. read more

This was a little early in my foodie education and thank you to the great friends who took us. It was a great intro to French cuisine.

Our kids took us to Sunday brunch a couple of weeks ago. The atmosphere was ruined by the not so background music which was as far from French as it can be! The food was so-so, I even forgot what I had (just looked it up on their menu and it was BACCALAHAU "BENEDICT" which was OK but a strange combination of potato pancakes with roasted potatoes!) but my wife had the quiche which she did not like at all. We ordered crepes for desert and they were so-so also except for the Lemon Curd Crepe which was excellent; my wife makes much better crepes! As a side note, one of my grandsons wanted chicken wings and they did not have them! Ha! Ha! The service was very good and friendly even though it was extremely busy. read more

Stopped in for lunch. The service was prompt and friendly, and the food was fabulous and inexpensive. We had the quiche and the chicken cheddar crepe with peach chutney. Good variety on the menu and nice selection of drinks. We will definitely be back! read more
