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.

    Great food. We had the herb omelette, the American breakfast and the nutella crepes. We also ordered a side of baguette, it was perfect. I had a cafe latte with coconut syrup, it was the BEST!

    Amazing experience for my birthday celebration! Big shout out to the waitress who helped me surprise my husband that we were pregnant with our third. She also gave us plenty of dessert to celebrate with! She was very kind, bubbly, and generous. The managers were also sweet. Food is always delicious at Little Frenchie. We come every year from LA to enjoy it, about 8 years now. Can’t wait to come back as a family of 5 next year!

    Excellent menu, cozy restaurant. The food was very good and we will return. Our waiter had a great attitude but needs some training if he is to work at a restaurant such as this. We were not the only table to mention this.
    Little FrenchieResponded 4 days ago
    Merci for your thoughtful feedback. We’re so pleased to hear you enjoyed the menu and the cozy charm of Little Frenchie—it means the world to us. That said, we are truly sorry your experience was touched by a lack of polish in service. While we always appreciate a warm attitude, it is never our intention for guests to feel they are guiding our team. At a maison like ours, expertise and elegance should come standard. We’ll take your note to heart and ensure the proper refinement is in place. We look forward to welcoming you back for the seamless French experience you deserve.

    My friend and I sat outside to enjoy the nice weather and people watch. Our food was yummy and our food server was on top of refilling out water / iced tea. She said if our sandwich bread was to " crispy" she would have it remade . Always enjoy dining there. And love the remodel !

    The staff were all friendly and very attentive. We started with the Onion Soup Gratinee which was delicious. My husband ordered the Steak Frites and the steak was perfectly cooked. I had the Mt Lassen California Trout Veronique. The sauce was to die for! Ended with the Nutella crepe with just the right amount of sweetness. Highly recommend Little Frenchie!
    Little FrenchieResponded 4 days ago
    Merci beaucoup for your kind words! We’re delighted you enjoyed your evening à la française with us. From the comforting Onion Soup Gratinée to the perfectly cooked Steak Frites and delicate Trout Véronique—your choices were très classique. And of course, a sweet ending with the Nutella crêpe is always a good idea. We hope to welcome you back soon for another taste of French indulgence! À bientôt!
