Nice place and plenty of dishes to choose from. Nice decor with touch of history and time . Very nice gentry. Full of energy but the service is full of English rather than French style . Waitresses have troubles pronouncing French dish by name . Food is good but not up to 5 star . Silverware were obsolete and not very shiny. Overall I am satisfied and recommend to everyone and families with mature children.
Fantastic experience at Petit LB today. Great service. Great food. Their coffee is SOOOOOO good. Held a business meeting here today and will definitely be back again! GREAT PLACE ALL AROUND.
Old school Baltimore restaurant which gets everything right from the food to service. Went for brunch at each had a French Onion Soup then split the Croquet Monsieur. Yum!
Amazing food and service. I love french food and I was very satisfied with my dinner. Can't wait to go back!

The food was fantastic. The duck breast, the lamb steak, and escargot were flavorful and cooked perfectly. The staff are attentive and all work together to ensure you're taken care of. They have an extensive wine list broken down by region which is lovely. The restaurant is loud with everyone talking so keep that in mind.
I had a great experience at Petit Louis Bistro. My partner and I booked a table in the patio to celebrate her birthday. The food was amazing, from the appetizer (we ordered the crunchy eggplant) to desert (profiteroles). The magret was perfect, I highly recommend it! Service is also a high, and they even gifted us two glasses of sparkling wine to pair with profiteroles. We could not have chosen a better place to celebrate!
Crowded inside/outside for dinner! Parking will be rough!
Dishes were made with care, medium size portions and generally top tier! (we had house shrimp bisque, duck, chicken salad) What made this place amazing was their WAIT STAFF. No drink unfilled, no table unattended. You had like 3 waiters at all times... 11/10 for service
With an unmatched wine list this is apparently date night land. Would absolutely reccomend you guys carpool or taking an Uber!
Delicious birthday dinner for my spouse.
Not the place to go if you are vegan

The magret de canard was outstanding. Service was superb also. I70
Petit Louis is one of the gems of Baltimore.
Every appetizer and entree I've had here absolutely slaps and can hold its own against some of the best restaurants in the country. Dishes are not overly complicated and every component had purpose on the plate and is executed with perfection. Duck confit, beet salad, and braised veal are some of the best hitting dishes to our palates that we've ever had. 🤯 I lick my plates here with little to no shame, it's honestly that good. Only caveat is that I haven't been as blown away by the desserts as much as the appetizers, so I skew towards indulging in their apps.
If you haven't been to Petit Louis, you need to fix that A đź‘Ź S đź‘Ź A đź‘Ź P đź‘Ź.
Edit: I really love how flavorful yet refreshing their vichyssoise is as well. Sweetbreads are really well done, but the plate was very, very rich on the palate. My tongue needed acid or something to brighten the bites.
Everything was fantastic. The service was great, the appetizers were delicious, entrees were amazing, but the desserts were the highlight for me. Best crème brûlée I’ve had yet and the pot de crème is a must try! Some may be scared of escargot, but I highly recommend you give it a chance if you like seafood, butter, and garlic! Everything was cooked pretty much to perfection.
Things we tried:
Appetizers - French onion soup, pate
Entrees - duck breast, duck leg confit, shrimp with beurre blanc, New York strip, and coq au vin (chicken)
Desserts - lemon meringue tart, chocolate pot de crème, crème brûlée, and mousse au chocolat
Sorry for the dark pictures, the lighting in there is dim so these don’t really do the food justice!
Such lovely, flavorful cuisine! Delicious champagne - many different options! And friendly, attentive staff. They were happy to answer all my questions. Wonderful place for a nice date night, or classy occasion! Will be back for sure :)
After hearing wonderful things about this restaurant from a friend, my wife and I decided to check it out. Petit Louis Bistro has absolutely amazing food and staff, very clean and attentive. They even went above and beyond for our anniversary and gave us a dessert with candles. I'd recommend giving them a try.
Very beautiful place, very French.
I have food allergies, I contacted the restaurant ahead of time and was told they could accommodate. However I was disappointed that most items couldn't be adjusted for me. My food tasted good but everyone else was able to have elegant or unique selections and I had something basic that I could make myself.
The dessert was amazing.
Staff was very courteous and attentive.
Overall a bit pricey for what I got but it was a wonderful evening with friends so I am glad we went.
Absolutely delicious French cuisine. Our server was a polite and attentive, the atmosphere is cozy and romantic and everything felt authentic. The butternut squash soup was perfect, the chicken was so tender and juicy, with perfectly caramelized onion and carrots and the fries were salty, crispy and soft.
Been to restaurants all over the country and this is quite possibly the best meal I have ever had. Came for restaurant week and did the wine pairing. Absolutely incredible. Food is a little pricey but in my opinion is 100% worth it for the quality and service you’re getting. Will definitely be back for special occasions
I took my partner here during Restaurant Week for her birthday, and it was absolutely wonderful. We were immediately shown to our seats, and the atmosphere is so joyful– everyone is laughing and having a good time. The servers were incredibly attentive and friendly, the food came pretty quickly, and we never had to wait long before our empty plates were cleared. And the food was delicious! The aubergine and passionfruit cheesecake were our favorite.
