What it lacks in space it more than makes up for in sumptuous French cuisine, artisanal cocktails, and Europop classics. Additionally It's location makes it a frequent stop for free range celebrities.

Much more than just a simple cheese fry plate, Petit Trois’ mornay frites brings French decadence in the form of béchamel and gruyere over what may be some of the city’s best fries. Read more

Having chef Ludo Lefebvre behind the bar, whipping up a decadent true French omelette, cooked slow using salty French butter and lots of movement, certainly helps makes Petit Trois so sought after.

Eater '16 BEST BURGER: Big Mec - Bordelaise & garlic aioli, caramelized onions, & Am cheese do not overwhelm the 2steak-strength, prime beef patties that demand knife/fork; brioche bun mops up sauces

Ludo Lefebvre’s runs this tiny, open-all-day, card-only, walk-in-only spot. In his hands classics like rolled omelets, butter-drenched burgundy escargot, and croque monsieurs have refinement and moxie Read more

Petit Trois has already become the most talked about French restaurant in the city. Try the omelette, steak frites, escargot; pretty much everything on the tight menu is worth ordering. Read more

Petit Trois serves the best omelet in the known universe, but it also serves escargot and croque monsieur and steak frites that are simply stunning in their decadence and perfection. Read more

Delicious Bar Restaurant!! You can see your food being prepared! It's a little bit over priced but it worth!! The Shrimp Avocado appetizer was AMAZING. THe meat with poivre (pepper)

One of the best places I've eaten ever!Low key location & small. The escargot & sole w rice were beyond delicious.Mornay frites was good.Chocolate mouse & salted caramel rice pudding were to die for.

This restaurant is worth all of the hype. Get the Omelet, the Steak au Poivre and the Big Mec. But there's really nothing not incredible on the menu. LUDO!

Unpretentious and very solid French spot right next door to its older brother Trois Mec. The decor and the atmosphere are exactly what they need to be. The cheese plate is extra dope, so is the music.

Not a bad wait if you have 3 or less people. The food is delicious - on the sweet side for the French onion soup and the mussels. Escargot was delicious and service is great
Ben K.December 28, 2015
Great French bistro food from Ludo Lefebvre in a strip mall. Try the perfect omelette and burger. But it's all good.
Andrew GaldiDecember 8, 2017
Delightful French bistro with amazing food, great wine selection, and delicious cocktails. The menu is limited (and leans a bit more toward lunch) but you can't go wrong!
Tasting TableAugust 5, 2014
The theme is classic French, with options like croque monsieurs, escargots, steak tartare and crème caramel. The look? That of a brasserie outfitted with an open kitchen counter, checkered floors. Read more

The steak is so tender they don't even give you a steak knife! Garlicky escargot butter is perfect for dipping bread! Can't wait to go back!

Escargot is a must, as is the chocolate mousse. The French Onion Soup looked amazing and is next on list to try.
Abhishek KonaFebruary 10, 2017
The cocktails are great. The endive salad and the bread were outstanding. The Americano was stiff and better than most fancy coffee stores

This tiny spot lives up to its name. Great food though. Try a French dessert like a Paris brest.
Robert AshkenazeApril 2, 2017
Big Mec burger was incredible! Loved the Chanterelle Tart.
Abu Aya KDJuly 8, 2016
Small restaurant, good food, and they dont make any modifications or take reservations...

Most amazing dishes here, make sure you ask for their specials of the day!

This place is a total gem. Everything we ordered was delicious. The crab cake was the best I have ever had.

The classic omelet shows you how good perfectly cooked eggs can be.
Connie ChiuOctober 13, 2017
Big mec! It’s good but so heavy. I ended up only eating a quarter of it. The steak tartare is interesting, not a big fan. The flambé pasta is surprisingly refreshing and zesty. Fries were meh.
Karen HuangNovember 5, 2017
The chicken confit was good and the omelette is popular. Cocktails are good too.

The burger was good & moist loved it
Iaroslava GrynkoMay 30, 2017
They put a bunch of things we didn't have on our check. The food was good but not great-way too fatty. Even if you don't mind lots of butter in your food-too much.
Jean MarieJuly 25, 2016
EVERYTHING is good here. Best burger in all of LA!

Great food, rude line cook, bar seating only, no cash, and they add on an 18% service charge but don't tell you. Not worth the hype – we won't be back.
