Their Saturday breakfast window is a great way to start your weekend. Everything is homemade and tastes great. If you're hungry I'm recommend getting a few items. The owners are so friendly!! If you like cheese you must get the croque monsieur

Today we ventured out for our April (a little late, oops) restaurant pick. A threecourse brunch at Le Petit Café ! Only $35 for 2 people - nuts ! The service was fantastic. The owners seemed to be the only two working - the husband serving / bussing / hosting / and checking out. The wife was the one cooking and also serving on occasion. The teamwork between the two was absolutely amazing. It was also adorable to watch them work together, speaking in French, and being oh so charming. On Sundays they do not have a menu. They ask you if there is any food you don't eat / are allergic to and then they bring out the food. I'm not really sure what any of the things I ate were - but I didn't taste anything that wasn't scrumptious. My favorite was the phyllo pastry during the first course. It was buttery and rich and melted in your mouth. I believe it was filled with cheese. The inside is decorated with cute, French posters and artwork. As you walk in, you can see the kitchen in the back. It would be nice to have a board during brunch that says what is contained in each course - mainly because I would love to know what the phyllo dish was called ! Would definitely go back - every Sunday if I could !

This is such a beautiful little restaurant that's family owned. It may be hard if you have dietary restrictions as it seemed that they only had one chef in the back. She was the owner and was super friendly. At the time of our visit it was run by the couple that owned it and it was a beautiful experience if you gave them patience. Do not come here if you're in a rush or have lots of limitations. The menu is small but very well executed. I do wish they had more hours but it's understandable why they have the limited hours. I had steak, cheesy bread, and dessert cake. It was all very fantastic. I don't usually write reviews but this place is fantastic.

This is my first time going to a French cafe and let me tell you the food is worth the wait, and affordable as well. I came in around 7:00pm and saw that it was booked, while I was waiting the owner handed me a piece of paper asking me to watch the video which I did, and for a restaurant that has lasted for more then 44 years, either the lord blessed them or their food has to be out of the world. I was then seated by the owner as I peaked in the kitchen theirs only one person in there it's his wife, the way she cooked while I was waiting was just so elegant and lovely, it felt like she didn't have any worried and just cooked with every dish with love and her heart out. For appetizer I had the Chicken liver Pate, now normally in the Vietnamese culture it's usually served as pork and with baguettes, this chicken pate tasted so fresh and clean and just smooth, I was just tempting to pay just for the recipe for it. Next came a light French onion soup no bread, no cheese, just onions and broth and it tasted like whoever put cheese and bread basically hides or "enhances the flavor of the soup." This soup was so, good I cleaned the bowl out, lastly came out my entree a oyster Rockefeller pasta dish which is ravioli covered in oysters in a Rockefeller sauce, im a big fan of oysters and knowing it is sacrilegious I got pasta and at a French restaurant, let me tell you something when a French can cook a ravioli dish better then an Italian, theirs a reason why they been opened for almost 44 years, even if it's just two people the hospitality and atmosphere is just so smooth even seeing people going here on dates made me smile, I will be coming back until the two owners have a happy retirement

I knew as soon as I walked in that I would love this quirky little place. The decor is bohemian, the owners - a French couple - sweet and friendly. We had a great dinner - started out with the cheese appetizer, a simple and delicious pastry filled with gooey, messy cheese. My partner had the steak entree, I tried the salmon with creamy tarragon sauce - it was fantastic. We got two sides to share - sliced fried potatoes and sautéed asparagus. For dessert, the lemon pudding cake was a bit of a disappointment - I'd definitely try something else next time. I love the fact that they make up the menu daily based on fresh ingredients. We will definitely be back here next time we come to Bloomington!
