It was awful from the beginning to end. Two of us went for Sunday Brunch last week. Service slow EVEN though we were the first ones in the place. Our table was on top of the one next to us so it felt like a foursome...no place to move. Food atrocious. We both ordered Crepes. Mine was with cheese & fresh veggies; hold the tomatoes. I got an overdone egg on top; a hard, cold crepe; canned mushrooms with a few stringy "carmalized onions. Our other crepe was cheese & bacon...same cold, overdone egg & crepe. Dessert was a chocolate covered stale eclair with a fruity filling. The only possibly ok part of the meal was a Caesar salad but the dressing was in globs on top of lettuce & crotons. This is the second really bad meal I have had at this restaurant...sorry, would not try again.

Pros: - great location and view - lovely décor and atmosphere - friendly and knowledgeable staff - good selection of wine and beer and delicious cocktails - most tender and flavorful chicken Ive ever ordered anywhere Cons: - fork and knife wrapped in a cloth that resembles a dish rag/baby diaper - use of paper instead of a table cloth – looks a little cheap for a place like this - bread and butter served on table without plates - most boring salad Ive ever had – literally just leaves with minimal drizzle of olive oil and red wine vinegar , nothing else - for a French restaurant I expected world class macarons but Ive had better at Whole Foods. Even my mom and coworkers make them better I still give it 4 stars, now I just know what to expect and avoid.

I cannot speak French, so lets get that out of the way, but I do love tasty food. This place was fantastic! We ordered a 3-course meal including salad, an entree and dessert as well as a separate entree and didnt regret a single bite. The service was wonderful and friendly, and the price was very agreeable. I would love to return to this restaurant!

We loved the crepes and drinks, although a bit on the pricey side. Not sure if bones are a thing with eating duck, but there were a few large chunks that surprised us. The French onion soup was delightful.

Great food and great service. We had the local mussles, salade lyonnaise, fish of the day (fluke), and profiteroles. Egg and lardons were perfect on the salad and the fish and mussles were fresh.

The place has been nicely updated, but the lunch was terrible - warmed over quiche and crepe. We had an excellent lunch here several years ago. Not sure what happened???

We had a great experience at Petite Jacqueline! The staff is obviously very passionate about what they do and it shows. We love this place!

Had a lovely salmon crepe, with fresh olives and the greatest flourless torte of my life. Youll get what you pay for.
