Le Petit Bistro

Very charming French bistro! Service is one of the best in the Mountain View area. I recommend getting their French onion soup, duck liver and pork chop.

Super cute French bistro. We come several times a year. Request sweets breads! They only stock if we have enough people ask.

Consistently good. Underrated probably because they are low key and don't do social media.

Their audience skews older so they recently went low sodium. Good for bringing parents! And you can always add salt.

Magnificent! A gem in Mountain View!

Sssshhhhh don’t tell anyone! It will be harder to get reservations!

I love this place because of Michael the owner chef! The food is fantastic but the place isn’t pretentious. This place doesn’t need to pretend it’s great. It is!

Have been there twice so far. Going back tomorrow with our daughter this time to share it with her. We just got back from Paris. And need another French food fix!

This place is an awesome Bistro even by Paris standards (IMHO), but there is room between the tables! ❤

We had our 10th anniversary with take out dinner order. We were very satisfied with beautiful and tasty French cuisines. We ordered one appetizer, two entrees and one dessert.
They all came with big portion, perfect for us with 2 young kids.

I noticed they had reopened for take out. Authentic French cuisine. More home style than haute cuisine. Beautiful plated given the constraints of takeout. The steak was tender, cooked perfectly. My salmon was juicy with just a hint of seasoning.

The owner is what makes this place amazing. She is so sweet and attentive and seems to treat everyone who walks through the door like family. Not your typical stuffy French restaurant at all. The food is acceptable nothing we ate blew us away but the entire staff was so warm and friendly it is worth going and we're definitely going back again.

You must go to this place as soon as possible, because the chef may retire. This is amazing food. I like the duck, lamb, muscles, escargot, and onion soup most.

Best French food is l have ever had outside of France. Limited choice on the menu, but everything there is great, and if you have any "special offers for the day" they'll be superb. Great valentine fixed price menu today, too!

Three entrees, three appetizers, one dessert. Every single bite of every single item was superb. Excellent food, excellent service. Authentic but not pretentious. Please don't tell anybody else, we keep it or little secret. "I like it, I love it, I want some more of it. " 💯

If you are looking for fresh, authentic, and delicious french food- this is absolutely the place you'll want to check out!! It is so obvious that the owner Chef Jean Michel pours his heart out into his food & everything was absolutely exquisite. He uses farm-to-table meats and all fresh ingredients- no cans! This place fully exceeded my expectations & I am so happy I found this little gem. If you're in the area def check them out, you will not be disappointed! The restaurant has such a cozy and intimate vibe and Chef Jean and the team make you feel right at home like you're enjoying a delightful dinner at a friend's house.

I have known this place for over 25 years and the quality of the food, the warmth of the chef/owner and his staff is still A+

Fantastic as always. Great service and the food is marvelous. I am so glad they survived the pandemic - we got their food to go a few times in the past 3 years. It's special actually being there after all this time.

I was so happy to have found a French restaurant that's family owned for many years. We tried it last night and I'm so glad we did. I had the Coq Au Vin De Chanturge, a chicken dish that was to die for. Cooked just right, juicy and so flavourful .My husband had Filet De Boeuf Au Poivre De Madagascar. It melted in his mouth he said. The flavors were outstanding.
My father was a chef in Europe and French food is my favorite. Not too spicy and not too flat. Just right, and that's how we found this restaurant to be. We will be back for more!

Low-key restaurant that serves traditional French food with warm service.

French family run. As close to the real deal as you will find in California

Great place! Very authentic and the staff seem very down to earth. The staff are also very attentive and the service is great. I got the pork medallions and my wife got the salmon. Both were excellent.
Definitely recommended!

Great food, great service, great ambiance

Check out Le Petit Bistro's Steak of the Week - the most delicious way I know to get good protein. Their house-made bread is amazing. Come with an appetite, leave with a wonderful experience to remember.

This is my favorite restaurant for special occasions! I've gone here for birthday and anniversary celebrations. The atmosphere is quiet (good for hearing conversations), cozy, and friendly. Went there again last night and owner Jean Michel greeted us at the door, made recommendations and helped with my menu questions, and talked with us at the end of our meal. They gave us a complementary birthday dessert complete with a candle, and when I asked for a to-go box for my entree, the server added in extra side veggies to the box!

I always get the chocolate mousse and love it -- dark and rich. :)
