DTLA｜Stunning French Restaurant — Le Petit Paris 🇫🇷

Choosing this spot for my New Year’s dinner was one of the best decisions of 2024! A beautiful French-American fusion restaurant—great food and amazing vibes. Perfect for birthdays, dates, gatherings, or any celebration 🍴 1️⃣ Appetizers: 🦑 Fried Calamari — Light, crispy batter (not like heavy breaded versions). Small recommend 🌟 🧅 Onion Soup — Rich and flavorful (might be salty for some Chinese palates). Still worth it—onion lovers go for it 🥹 🐌 Escargots — Buttery, herby, with just a hint of garlic. Surprisingly comforting and delicious 🫶 2️⃣ Mains: 🐙 Grilled Octopus — HIGHLY RECOMMEND 💯 Smoky, tender, packed with flavor 🌟🌟🌟 🐟 Roasted Cod — Light and refreshing with lemon (didn’t try but family loved it) 🌟 🥩 Steak Frites & Filet Mignon — Solid, reliable, well-cooked. 3️⃣ Desserts: 🍋 Lemon Tart — Bright, creamy, just sweet enough. Loved it 😭🌟🌟🌟 ☕ Moka French Cheesecake — Mousse-like, not too heavy, coffee bitterness balances the sweetness. Would order again 🌟🌟🌟 🍫 Lava Cake / 🍓 Strawberry Gelato / 🍮 Vanilla Crème Brûlée — All good but standard. 4️⃣ Truffle Fries — Thin, crispy, stayed crunchy. So good! 🎆 Sweet surprise: When we mentioned we were celebrating Chinese New Year, our server brought out sparklers and complimentary non-alcoholic shots (usually reserved for birthdays). So touching and kind! 😭🫶 💰 ~$100 per person with 20% service charge included (no extra tip needed, though generous souls can add more ✨). 🧧 Happy Chinese New Year, everyone! 🧧 #ChineseNewYearFeast #FrenchCuisine #AmericanFusion#LosAngeles #DateNightLA #BirthdayDiningLA
