This is hands down the best French restaurant in philly. Everything tastes incredible. The service is great and the ambiance is adorable. This is the only place we’ve come back to multiple times in the city. This will be our favorite forever.
Th current holiday dinner is perfect, perfect wine pairs and service. A happy ambiance, always feels like coming home to best possible meal.
A snafu when patron seated next to us mid meal had most pungent cologne ever....server graciously reseated us saving my nose and therefore my dining experience. Thanks devoted staff 😘
Lovely little place. We had the escargot and tartare for apps and the rabbit and trout for dinner...all were delicious!
Superb dining experience during restaurant week, with no shortcuts taken. The specialty menu had a variety of options for a three course. We opted to add additional items as well. Dish ingredients were rich and savory, while served at a perfect pace. Dining staff went above and beyond.

My husband and I recently visited Bistrot La Minette in Philadelphia and had an absolutely fantastic experience. We started with the Escargots a la Bourguignonne, which were perfectly cooked and full of flavor. For our entrees, we ordered the Entrecôte et oeufs au plat and the Truite meunière, both of which were incredibly fresh and tasty. We couldn't have been more pleased with the quality of the food.
The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and charming, with a distinctly French feel that made us feel like we were dining in a bistro in Paris. We loved the cute decor and overall vibe of the place.
But perhaps the best part of our experience was the exceptional service we received. The staff was professional, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. Our server was helpful in making recommendations and ensuring that our dining experience was seamless from start to finish.
Overall, I would highly recommend Bistrot La Minette to anyone looking for an exceptional French dining experience in Philadelphia. The food, ambiance, and service were all top-notch, and we can't wait to come back again.
I dined here for the first time on a whim, and I'm happy I did. The service and food were both exceptional. I highly recommend trying the butternut squash soup! The wine and everything else were great too. Our server, Rachel, was also very friendly. I definitely recommend this place and plan to return soon!
I enjoyed this restaurant and the overall atmosphere. The waitstaff is lovely and add to the good time. A nice selection of wines, cocktails, and they even have some nice beers. The food was very good, the only critique would be maybe less foie gras terrine, as it's so rich you can feel full off of that itself. Not necessarily a bad thing to have. We got the Terrine de foie gras, Filet d'omble chevalier au champagne, Joue de porc façon cassoulet (which was in my opinion the best selection we got and perfect for a raining day), and Gâteau au fromage de style basque. To drink we had Vin à l'ancienne, Ecorce Sauvage, and Crème de Cassis Kir Royale.
The food and service here are great. Highly recommend the duck liver (the hot one). Not recommended rabbit. Duck breast and pork cheek are good choices, too.
Absolutely delicious! We went for restaurant week and got the poached egg & mussels, escargot, trout, rabbit tagliatelle, apple spice cake, and creme brulee. We also ordered the truffle mac & cheese a la carte, which was totally worth it because it was one of our favorites! Other favorites were the egg toast, rabbit, and creme brulee, but everything was fantastic!
I went with my 16 yr old son last night for restaurant week specials for the 1st time. We were greeted and vaccine checked at the door per city guidelines. He is taking French in school as I did and we both wanted to try escargots and have some pretty authentic french cuisine. It was absolutely fantastic. The platings were simple and clean. We started with the escargot and endive salad, our entrees were rabbit and trout and to finish we had THE BEST creme brulee I have had in years....yes almost everywhere offers it now, but most places serve it ice cold (I was taught that is actually wrong) and have hardly no sugar crust to them. This was full coverage and had the perfect "crack" and was beyond a beautiful finish to a wonderful meal. Will definitely be back for special occasions.
