La Petite Maison (LPM) London

I enjoyed the drink menu. It was like a French magazine. I enjoyed reading it. The famous French actors in 60’s such as B.B and Jane Birkin are on it. So entertaining 🎶The carpaccio was delicious. The sea bass was also tasty. We ordered Crème Brûlée for dessert, whose taste was different from what I had ever had. It was great.

Never disappoints. We were there just now after they refurbished the Riviera Room, which is our favourite for now ( if you prefer more quiet and intimate space ) Staff is great and welcoming. All time favourites: lentil salad, warm prawn, lamb and beef, and of course the crème brulee & fondant!

Le Petit Maison blends lively atmosphere with refined French-Med cooking. The burrata and roast chicken shine, service stays sharp, and prices remind you it’s Mayfair. Tight tables, great energy, solid flavours. Quietly rated: worth stopping.

Been a few times but tonight was on another level. Food was exceptional.. Wagu Sirlion Steak, Lamb Chops and the Dover Sole was banging. Pictures do not do it justice.

This was a very trendy place a few years back, but it seems to have fallen into obscurity recently - and the vibe reflects that. We were seated immediately and given a decent table, even though I had only booked the day before. The menu selection is solid, and they do cater well to a dairy-free diet, for example. This place is being heavily promoted on social media by many influencers, so hopefully this review helps you make a more informed choice. The service was underwhelming. The waiting staff were slow, and our waitress spoke very quietly, almost as if she couldn’t be bothered, so we had to ask her to repeat herself during nearly every interaction. As for the food, I didn’t have high expectations (best not to in Mayfair), so it was pretty much as expected - perfectly decent but forgettable. The prawns in olive oil were delicious, though oddly sliced in half, which is something you’d expect with crudo, not cooked prawns. The bean salad was also decent. For the main, I had charred sea bass, which was pleasant, but the courgette noodles on top didn’t complement it and had a raw, unpleasant texture. The rosemary fries were disappointing - hard and overcooked inside, more like basic takeaway chips. My mocktail wasn’t particularly memorable either. When it came to dessert, the waitress asked if we wanted a menu, but when we asked whether there would be anything suitable for our dietary requirements, she said no. So I’m not sure why offer it at all. The bill came to just under £200 (including tip) for two starters, one side, two mains, one mocktail, and a glass of wine. They also added a £1 “charitable” donation, like many places in London do now, which feels a bit forced and lacks transparency. The atmosphere deserves a separate mention, as it was quite bizarre. Many guests were dressed in tracksuits, gym shorts, and casual trainers. There were also several strollers and young children. It’s perfectly normal to accommodate families with young children, especially at lunchtime, but the space already felt cramped, and full-sized buggies made it difficult to move around. There was also quite a lot of intrusive people-watching - tables are close together, and everyone seems to be looking around who is who - so it’s definitely not the place for an intimate meal or conversation. Overall, as expected: forgettable, overpriced, with cold and distant service. 3/5
