Le Petit Chef - San Diego

My husband & I enjoyed the show. It was entertaining & fun to watch. The dishes were quite good albeit a couple of minor details: The bread for tomato bread salad was a bit chewy, bordering on either soft or crispy, so the texture was a bit confusing. The truffle ravioli would have been my top dish except that i don't think i have the shimeji mushrooms on mine and my husband did not have the "bacon bits" so there was some inconsistency on the ingredients. Might be i got the wrong dish or they ran out of mushrooms? (we got the Classic dish so i should have the mushrooms on the ravioli. Mushrooms are one of my favorite ingredients so i would remember eating them). The steak dish was delicious, but it got a little salty on the last few bites so a little extra steak sauce on the side would ha

Great service and a really nice, immersive atmosphere. Parking wasn’t bad, and valet is available if you prefer. The bar outside the restaurant is very nice with good drinks—one of us had the In the Woods cocktail, and I had coconut water rum on the rocks. They also give you a small glass of champagne before you go in, which was a nice touch. Food-wise, the salad and main entrée lacked some flavor for me, but the truffle ravioli and dessert were really good and stood out. Overall, it’s a fun, unique, and kid-friendly experience worth trying at least once.

I loved the show and our server Melissa was great. I rated the food/full experience as four stars for a couple reasons. The first reason was due to the menu itself. The Spanish course was ok in my book because I don’t like raw tomatoes. The Italian course was surprisingly good even though I’m not a huge mushroom fan. The French course was my favorite but by the time we got to the French and Japanese courses I was already pretty full. So it was just a lot of food by the time we got to end of it. I personally would have preferred smaller sized portions so I could have ate all four meals instead of wasting a good portion of them once we reached the French and Japanese chef’s meals. The other reason why I rated the food/experience as four stars is because the Italian and French dishes

Disappointed this was not as great. Did not get a table for two but sat at a table with other people and the room had no remarkable ambiance. Service was pretty good and food was not bad but not near what I would call remarkable. I prefer a nicer venue with better food for a date night but perhaps if you have kids or go with a group this would work better. Not worth the money.

I booked Le Petit Chef for my best friend's birthday. It was an amazing experience. You couldn't wipe the smile of our faces. They even provided a extra desert as a special birthday gift. It was a beautiful experience and the food and drinks were delicious.
