[New York Weddings  Review] [Forbes Review] [New York Magazine Review] [Time Out Review 2008] [Zagat Survey] [Time Out Review 2009]

Review posted in New York Weddings Magazine - June 2004

For a quarter of a century, La Petite Auberge has quietly endured the ascendance of nouvelle cuisine, celebrity chefs, and health-consciousness, remaining remarkably immune to every hostile threat to its classic style of French cooking. For the price of an entrée almost everywhere else, the $23.95 four-course prix fixe features such high-fat, old-school fare as steak au poivre with buttery potatoes and spinach, filet of sole meunière, and an enormous, wonderfully crispy duck a l'orange (for a $2 supplement). The vinaigrette on the leeks is more cream than vinegar, the pâté is robust, and the service is that practiced blend of proper and friendly that makes this wood-beamed chalet in the heart of Curry Hill such a sentimental fave. If our arteries could take it, we'd be regulars.

Review One
Remembrence of France


As I walked through the door, I was transported back to France, from the decor & atmosphere, to the aromas, drifting from the kitchen and from table to table! Qu'elle joie.......This classic style of French cooking is what we Americans call "Good Home Cooking", like the steak au poivre, filet of sole meuniere, pate, etc.....Desserts are wonderfully french, the service as it should be, and all at moderate prices. Would definitely return and would highly recommend!

Review Two
GOOD FOOD AND COZY ATMOSPHERE


SWEETBREADS AND ESCARGOT ARE HARD TO FIND THESE DAYS BUT THEY ARE SERVED ON A DAILY BASES AS WELL AS MANY OTHER SPECIALTIES. I ENJOYED THIS CASUAL FRIENDLY PLACE.

Review Three
WONDERFUL for private parties


Besides the main restaurant, they also have a private room upstairs with a separate entrance and bathroom. A surprisingly pretty, warm, cozy, inviting place with a separate bar and audio setup. We had a bridal shower there - the food was FANTASTIC, the service was EXCEPTIONAL, and the value with their prix fixe menu was unbeatable for Manhattan! Highly recommendable for those on a budget.
