About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
Little Frenchie is a chef-driven approachable bistro modeled after Parisian neighborhood cafes. Enjoy our rotating menu of Provencal classics, our immense selection of unique cheeses imported from France and our extensive wine collection from both France and California. We take pride in the imported and local ingredients we use; our produce is sourced from regional farmers, and our seafood from local area fisherman.

From the OpenTable editors: It could be the red leather banquettes, cheese counter, or silver buckets of wine, but everything about Little Frenchie screams Paris. Fuel your idyllic getaway with bistro classics like crepes and moules frites, very drinkable glasses of French and Californian wines, and a breathtaking seven-layer chocolate cake with Chantilly cream.

    We did not expect such delicious food! The short rib was so amazing, one of the best we ever had and we’ve had a lot! Also ordered the prawn salad- very light but delicious flavors. Omg the bread and butter is a must. Another couple we sat next to was raving as well. He said it was the best duck ever!

    We went for Happy Hour and it was wonderful! I had the French onion soup and a lovely glass of Savignon Blanc and my husband had the Burger and Fries and his burger was the best I have ever tasted. Love love this place!

    Food was excellent. The main reason we chose this place was because they use beef tallow to fry. No seed oils. French fries were delicious. Service was slow. Our waitress explained that they had new inexperienced staff and she was the only veteran. that would be my only complaint.

    We came here to celebrate our anniversary while staying in town at the Hotel Del and what an amazing experience it was. The food and service was exceptional and they made us feel so special during our dinner. The service was by far one of the best we have ever had and we will definitely be back! What a delicious and unforgettable experience!

    We had made reservations for our anniversary, so I'll begin by giving the restaurant kudos for welcoming us with complimentary bubbly, and finishing our visit with a delicious, complimentary Creme Brulee. In between, unfortunately, the food (we ordered, so...) was mediocre. We have been to the restaurant in the past, but this time the entrees were just disappointing. My wife said her duck didn't seem fresh, and I had the same reaction to the scollops. Maybe it was just what we picked midweek, but we'll probably try a different French restaurant the next time we are on the island.
