La Petite Parisienne’s wide menu also includes pizza such as the Seafood Pizza which was very juicy despite its thin crust because of the fresh tomato and rich melted cheese.
Their Portobello Pasta is a perfect pairing for wines as most have the distinct taste of wild mushrooms, complementing the portabella. Lastly, their Rib Eye Steak was tender, juicy, and full flavored with a visually appealing marbling.
