" Had a wonderful dinner at La Piquette! I came with a few friends, and we were all impressed with the quality of food and attentive service. The ravioli dish I ordered was exquisite, and I was especially impressed by the portions; they don’t skimp on serving sizes! The ambiance felt upscale yet welcoming, making it a lovely choice for a special evening. I would definitely return to explore more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely outstanding meal at La Piquette. The charcuterie platter was enough to share between us three, and I had the trout which was cooked superbly. The ambiance made it feel like we had traveled to France for the night, and the staff provided excellent service, making us feel right at home. I thoroughly enjoyed our experience and hope to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a long-time patron of La Piquette, I can confidently say it never disappoints! Their seasonal menu always has something innovative while staying true to French cooking standards. My dining companions joined me to celebrate my promotion, and we enjoyed a fabulous selection of wines along with our entrees. From duck breast to cheesecakes, the whole evening was memorable. They continue to impress me with their consistency! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited La Piquette last weekend, and the experience was everything I hoped for! The wine list was extensive, and we enjoyed a couple of great French wines. The paté was delicious, and all of us enjoyed our main courses, especially the seafood dishes. However, the noise level made it a bit difficult to converse. I would recommend it for a casual night out with friends or a date. I do plan to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing rave reviews about La Piquette, I decided to treat my partner to dinner. Overall, we had a lovely time, but my dish lacked the wow factor I anticipated. The salmon was fresh and appealing, but it could have used a kick of flavor. My friend's duck, however, was scrumptious and perfectly tender! Our server was very attentive and made us feel welcomed. The ambience had a cozy feel, perfect for date night. Perhaps I will try another dish next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Piquette resembles the charm and elegance found in small French bistros. My wife and I enjoyed a delightful meal there last night. The calamari was perfectly cooked, and I've never tasted such a rich chocolate ganache. I appreciated the subtle level of noise; it was lively enough to feel aglow, yet intimate enough for us to talk freely. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the bread's pairing with olive oil; a butter option would have elevated the experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful little gem! La Piquette captures the soul of France impeccably. Our table shared some escargots as an appetizer, which were incredible. I made a special request for my steak to be cooked medium-rare, and they nailed it! The combination of flavors left me and my friends raving. The service was also great. I highly recommend this spot for anyone craving authentic French comfort food. " (*Curated Review*)
