   Super nice staff! Good food for a Mothers’ day brunch! Nice outside space, maybe inside would have been too noisy!

   Came here for the first time today and the decor was lovely. Appreciated that they did not pack too many tables in so it did not get too loud. Our server was very kind and gave excellent recommendations. That being said, the service was very slow. It took more than 15 minutes for cocktails to be delivered. The portions were normal sizes and the flavors were excellent.  I really appreciate it. How spring flavors were reflected in the menu wild ramps were in the mussels!

   Lovely French bistro style setting with good food at a reasonable price. The menu included French classics with a modern twist and execution was good. Service was friendly but very slow. There were long gaps between our courses, we had to ask several times for drinks orders and bread to be delivered and it detracted from the experience.

   Delightful brunch items to choose from. All delicious. Service was great. A bit expensive, but this is DC...you can't really get eggs for less than $15 for an meal anymore. Highly recommend the Avocado Croast, delish!

   This wa our third visit to Petite Cerise. The food never disappoints! Fresh and seasonal dishes always make their marks. The service was a little slow, but not frustrating. It was a bit noisier than I remembered but we had a lovely dinner. Do not miss the foie gras! The trout was also amazing

   Disappointing. But maybe expectations were too high based on reviews from others. I think it’s probably best for brunch

    The meal and restaurant experience were excellent. However, a 20% fixed service charge was not indicated on the menu which I have found to be the norm at other restaurants that levy this charge.
