   Extremely disappointing. I have been to New Orleans on a number of occasions and have always wanted to try La Petite Grocery as I have heard how good the restaurant is, but whatever reputation it is living on is long in the past. The portions are ridiculously small for the prices - $15 for three small crab beignets, over $40 for two small lamb t-bones that were mostly bone and an inferior quality. I have had much better lamb from Costco that my husband has seasoned and prepared in our oven. I don't need huge portions, but I would expect tasty and thoughtfully prepared food with individual attention given to each item on the plate from supposedly one of the best French restaurants in N.O. My brother had the Red Fish which was fine but unremarkable (unless you count the remarkably undercooked eggplant in the dish). Against our better judgement we decided to try the butterscotch pudding and unfortunately our fears were confirmed. Like most of the dishes, not well-balanced; a little bit of the main attraction, the pudding (had much better) with too much whipped cream and a dried out pound cake 1/2 slice that was scavenged from the leftover bin and crumbled over the dish with a few peanuts. The service was not much better. No one was particularly friendly or inviting. Our dour server did warm up after we joked with her and tried to engage in conversation, but her basic knowledge of the menu was sorely lacking and did not enhance our experience in any way.

   We had a fabulous meal! Crab beignets are a must for anyone. Best meal at the table was the red fish, although everything was delicious. Service was awesome and meal was even better. Definitely will be back

    Our food was Luke warm at best. The lump crabmeat eggs Benedict was missing crabmeat. You had to search hard to find it . Also eggs Benedict usually has 2 poached eggs each on there own piece of corn bread. Well I was missing a piece of corn bread as well. The salad that came with it had a horrible dressing on it. My husbands burger was not hot as well. Service was so so. Won’t be returning for brunch anytime in the near future.

    Ricotta dumplings were amazing! The chicken breast was large and delightful. Mac and cheese was so dry and very disappointing. The host was friendly but the server was not. Never checked on our drinks nor food or else she would have known we were very disappointed in the mac and cheese. We were so excited about this place but left wishing we had gone elsewhere.

    Restaurant failed to bring out appetizers. Took very long to get any food. When entres came, one dish was luke warm to cold. Manager roiled his eyes and took it back to the kitchen. After waiting an extended time, waiter brought back food sizzling hot… had obviously been overcooked in microwave. Panne rabbit dish ended up tasting like mall Chinese food. When the manager grudgingly asked in a snarky tone about the dish, I told him in an honest, calm manner how it tasted. He rolled his eyes and shrugged his shoulders. We were calm and polite. No one in the restaurant apologized and the was no attempt to really repair the errors. This is not how local, New Orleans restaurants run there business.

    The visit was disappointing. It's very loud inside so I was glad there was only room outside, though it was hot. We ordered two different glasses of wine but once they got to the table they couldn't tell us which was which. The tuna tartare appetizer was warmish and a little smelly. The arugula and fig salad had no dressing on it, though the waitress explained it was a light dressing. We had to ask for dressing and when I tasted it, it confirmed the salad really had no dressing. The figs and toasted pecans on the salad were good. I got the steak, and asked for it medium but it was rare. It was almost burned on the outside and rare inside and pretty chewy. The shrimp and grits were not really that tasty, too much tang, and the shrimp were on the small side. Overall not such a great experience.

    Food was good and creative but not all was great. Burger came with burned reheated fries that were more like small pieces of fries. Service was definitely subpar. Waited 30’ for cocktails on a Monday night. Waitress disappeared midway through the meal and was suddenly replaced with a different one; no explanation. Ambiance was nice.

    The food was amazing. Pork belly was a Korean twist which was nice, great kimchi and pickled onions. Our entrees were outstanding, very unique shrimp and grits I could not stop eating. Chocolate chess pie was great, the smoked pecans were so incredible and it was the perfect not to sweet ending to a lovely meal. Great time catching up with old friends. I was a little disappointed with our service, took a while to get drinks and anything after the entrees were delivered. Had we not split the bill, we would have paid with the scan option and been gone in 5 minutes. It took more than 30 minutes to have our check picked up.
