    Everything was lovely, however my braised short rib wasn’t juicy, so disappointing.

    As always, we love going to Petit Trois for the delectable selection of dishes, all prepared right in front of of you if you’re lucky enough to sit at the counter watching all the delicious magic taking place. We love the food, the enjoyable banter among all the staff, and the fact that it’s some of the best French cuisine in LA.

    L'APPART by Air Food is simply my favorite French restaurant in Los Angeles. I do also like Figaro Bistrot which I have been going for years... but Figarot offers a wider and broader French bistrot type dishes. Leaning more toward haunt cuisine, L'APPART offers more selected and finer French dishes at a reasonable price. For example, I ordered the Raclette last night which I've never had. It's essentially a Swiss / French dish of melted cheese on potatoes paired with charcuterie. If you like French food, I highly recommend you try L'APPART.

    Food was amazing. The special highlight of the night is the mochi dessert. If it’s not the best it’s definitely top 3 best dessert in LA
