I have been to Paris and eaten at cafes. Le Petit Triangle captures that atmosphere quite well. It’s painted brightly, lit warmly, and has several small rooms with dining tables rather than one large, open area. Their escargot was exactly like what I remember from Paris, and is served with a convenient shell holder. Likewise, their lamb, which I sampled from my partner’s plate was richly seasoned and cooked perfectly. My cod was buttery soft and perfectly cooked. The sauce was very bright and gave a very fresh flavor to both the fish and the cous cous. Great experience overall.

Escargot was really good. Our waitress was very sweet very friendly. I had a chocolate martini that was delicious.

Le Petite Triangle “Service: Insolence méprisante et aggressive. Les enfants terrible. Noise: A cacophony of dishes clattering, loud conversation from the manager with the server, an outside door left open with the cold wind blowing on our table then slammed shut, causing the entire storefront to shudder! Food: Bonne Quel dommage.

We arrived few minutes early and were happy to wait on the covered porch after we were warmly greeted by Angela P., who assured us it would only be a moment. Our Brunch was perfect from the service to the food! I ordered the beet salad which was the best version of a beet salad I have ever eaten! It was fresh, the beets were thinly sliced and a nice serving, the dressing was perfect, and the added touch of the lightly fried goat cheese was amazing. Also the house made lemon curd crepe is a must!! Thank you for a great start to our morning!

My fail safe restaurant when I’m in the area and want a meal that is guaranteed to be delicious, beautiful, and luxurious without feeling pretentious. I’ve been coming here for years and years and I don’t know why it took me so long to leave a review… but here I am now. All the stars.

The service was not good, the hostess made us feel less than welcome. Terribly cramped in the place. We basically sat on top of the table next to us. We had the Beef bourguignon and Shakshuka. The food was not good at all. We will not be back.

I have been eating here for years and the quality has never dropped. The food is incredibly tasty and perfectly made every time. I got the crepe ratatouille and it was delicious! My wife enjoyed her sandwich au poulet. The dessert crepes are a must. The strawberry nutella crepe is one of my favorite desserts in Cleveland.

Le Petite Triangle in Cleveland deserves 5 stars for nailing the cozy, authentic French bistro vibe. It’s not trying to be a fine dining spot, and it doesn’t need to. The food’s simple but so satisfying, better than a lot of the more upscale places in town.

I visited here on my birthday for brunch a few years ago but this was my first dinner here! Celebrated our monthaversary with my partner.
Food was delicious, we had the Magret de Canard (Duck) and the Steak and Boursin Sandwhich, with the Coquille St. Jacques (Scallops) appetizer. I had a mocktail and she had a cocktail. I would get the cocktail and duck again, and I definitely want to come back when I have more time and room in my stomach for the Chocolate Soufflé.
Air quality was above 1000, so I would recommend air filters especially due to the tight space.

I had high hopes for this place but I feel like it was honestly kind of just okay. I ordered the mango chutney crepe because I thought it was interesting. My chicken was slightly undercooked and it looked pretty white. I feel like the flavours did not really work together somehow, the sweet and the spice and the cheese somehow just didn't taste too good to me. My partner got the Benedict which I thought was also just okay. Maybe there are better items on the menu though (e.g. the sweet crepes)
Lovely atmosphere, food is good and service was great

We went right as it opened and were able to be seated without a reservation but I would recommend making one because it is very small and fills up quickly. The chocolate crepe was amazing. I highly recommend for a quick breakfast!

Went for brunch, place is very quaint; Food was great. Staff was kind. They are a bit liberal in their interpretation of the dishes, since the eggs Benedict were fried and the shakshuka was on the stewy side, but it tasted great!
A couple of big issues we had were firstly that it was really crowded and service was pretty slow, we didn’t even get our appetizers for over 30 minutes.
Second and more annoyingly, we had a reservation and came 5 minutes early, but got seated after our reserved time and had to fight for our table. You see there is this sign where you wait to be seated at the door, but with them being busy it takes a while for someone to show up; however, walking in and yo the bar will get you seating faster and ahead of everyone waiting… It made for a very off-putting start to the whole experience.

Quite literally my favorite place to eat in Northeast Ohio. Pictured is the chocolate lovers crepes, the smoked trout and lentils, the herb and cheese croissant, and the London fog latte (blue plate was with oatmilk). Everything is always amazing here. I’ve also tried and loved the bacalao Benedict, smoked salmon omelette, the beef bourguignon, and the poulet picatta. They also make a realllyyyy great dirty martini. You won’t be disappointed if you go to le petit.

We took our Granddaughter there to celebrate her 15th birthday and it did not disappoint... Everything was perfect, the food, the drinks, the service, the atmosphere... It made for a wonderful birthday!
