About this restaurant

  • Romantic

Petit Marlowe is a Parisian-inspired restaurant, wine bar and oysterette from Big Night restaurateurs Anna Weinberg, James Nicholas and chef Jennifer Puccio. Located in SoMa just around the corner from sister property Marlowe, the intimate neighborhood restaurant has been designed by Weinberg and interiors guru Ken Fulk to instantly transport guests to a bistro along the Seine, complete with vintage French decor, an iron-streaked marble bar, refined-yet-satisfying plates, and of course, a fabulous wine selection.

    Made a confirmed booking at Petit Marlowe. Arrived on time and was told that there's a private event so my booking is cancelled. They said OpenTable should not have been taking reservations. Petit Marlowe claims to have called everyone to inform them but I didn't receive any calls (in fact, I got a text asking me to confirm my booking which I did). The restaurant employee said we can go to Marlow so I asked if a table there is confirmed for us and if so, at what time. He reluctantly agreed to call Marlowe then told me to stand outside while he called them bec I couldn't be inside! Stand outside? Really? Treated so rudely when this mess up was completely on them and OpenTable!

    The restaurant cancelled all reservations without notifying their customers because of a corporate booking. We watched 4 other couples get turned away without any assistance. They blamed Open Table stating that date was supposed to have blocked out. Open Table appears to be oblivious to this debacle. I will never book at Petit Marlowe again and I will no longer use Open Table.

    Despite receiving emails confirming the reservation, when we got to the restaurant, we were informed they were closed for a private event. No explanation provided.

    Arrived for my 5pm reservation only to be told that the restaurant was closed for a private event!! No notification whatsoever. Will never ever patronize this restaurant in the future.

    We had a dinner reservation for 5:00 pm on a recent Thursday evening, confirmed through OpenTable. When we arrived there was a sign on the door stating the restaurant was closed for a private party. No correspondence about our reservation, no attention from the wait staff clearly visible through the front door, NOTHING. We'll never go back and I'll tell anyone who asks to stay FAR away from this LOUSY establishment.
