The menu is good. I can't say that the food is amazing value for money. The portion sizes are small which is fine if it tasted superb. Its just sort of average so I won't rate the food very highly. The staff are lovely and the atmosphere is decent. Good acoustics and lighting. Comfortable seating with good spacing

Having had a few dissapointing experiences at this Restaurant a while ago we thought it might have changed for the better.. Not so! We were warmly welcomed and shown to a window table.where menus awaited us. We then waited what seemed an age before being offered aperitifs. Fed up with waiting we called a waiter who were in sparse supply to take our drink order who duly obliged and took our order but offered no apology. Drinks were served and in short order our food oreder was taken.and indeed the starter was promptly and served very hot. There was a wait for the table to be cleared and our mains served. 1.In contrast to the starters our meals were tepid!1 2.My" Calves Liver "was in my strong submission was infact beef liver. 3.My Wife`s chicken was dry and rather tasteless.We tried to attract the attention of the staff but notwithstanding the fact that the restaurant was very quiet we were ignored!! 4.Again we had to wait an age for the table to be cleared.When eventually we were noticed by the Maitre D he cleared the table at which point we pointed out our dissatisfaction with our experience.He disputed that the Liver was not Calves Liver saying that they had a very reputable butchery supplier!! As to my Wife`s chicken he just shrugged his shoulders walking away and offering no gesture to compensate us fo their shortcomings and our dissapointment. 5.We ordered Crepes for our desserts.They were cold and leathery when served We wanted them replaced but no staff were within earshot. We ,when the table was cleared asked for the bill andpaid and promptly left never again to return

I was appalled at the service considering there were only two tables to serve. After finishing main course we were never offered dessert menu or coffee we were left while all attention was directed to one table! We were also paying customers and expected a serviceâŠâŠboycott comes to mind.

Been here many times for celebrating and itâs always been great but visited today for Motherâs Day and was surprised to see that management allowed a large wet dog into the restaurant brushing past people and wetting coats and scarves along the way. Seated in the middle of the restaurant making their way around diners, pretty disgusting for a restaurant and rather disappointing. We wonât rush back. The dog was not a guide dog but a large dog with young couple.

When we got there, first was greeted with Happy Faces, and then we ordered food. I was very disappointed with my food, if I'm honest. Then we decided to order a dessert, but the young waiter, which im thinking was greek, was very rude, and was arguing with me about creme brulee. Then he argued with my friend about paklava while I was in the toilet. Then we decided to get the bill, called him 3 times, looked in our faces & just ignored us until I shouted. Then he asked me about the creme brulee again. Beautiful restaurant but will not be going back sorry.

Been here few times, recent lunch trip al la carte menu was slightly disappointing. Portion size are small and seems overpriced for what you get . Ordered calamari (ÂŁ15) for 10-11 rings. Salmon gravelax was delicious but small - only slices. I think we will try elsewhere where there is more value for money. Maybe lunch set menu is worthwhile but not al la carte menu. Staff is good, good ambience and clean,but food is ok but very overpriced and not value for money for what you get. Know other restaurants with similar food but includes sides ie. Veg. Will not be in a hurry to come back.

I celebrated my 30th birthday family dinner here with 30 people...The staff at La Petite Auberge did an amazing job! Everyone received their food roughly around the same time, the waitresses and waiters were all very attentive and handled some difficult members of my family with so much professionalism. The food was good and they managed to have us all in the back area which meant we could all move around freely without disturbing too many other customers. The manager was a dream to communicate with and really did alleviate some of stress and the anxiety I had about having so many people! I cannot thank them enough. I will definitely be back, with a smaller group of people :)

Very good food but I would have liked to see more vegetables included in meals rather than having to be ordered extra. I had far too much calves liver but had to pay ÂŁ5.00 for a portion of broccoli which was too much for one person. They could do with reviewing their costings, I'm sure broccoli is much cheaper than calves liver.

We have been to this restaurant before it was recently refurbished. I have also been several times to its sister restaurant in Islington. Cockfosters has lots of Greek and Turkish restaurants so it is really nice to have a good French restaurant. I also think the restaurant is much improved by the refurbishment. Over again we all enjoyed our lunch.

I had an early supper here. I ordered off the a la carte menu, choosing the rabbit casserole. This was a well balanced, delicious and an excellent portion size. This was followed by a range of desserts: Apple crepes, a pistachio pastry, a mille-feuille and a tarte with raspberry. They were all absolutely scrumptious - the cream in the mille-feuille was heavenly. Thanks to the restaurant. Like T800 advised: I'll be back đ

The new waiter was extremely rude when I raised the concern about the desert , all I said (after we paid the full price with service charge ) was that the pastry is a bit sour today compared to how it normally is , not sure why he got so excited , but he was emotionally telling us â all the people ordered the same desert today said itâs the best desert they ever had in their life! â, word by word âŠno exaggerating , this was exactly what he said, how bloody silly. The manager came to us apologizing but commenting âthatâs just how French talk â LOL đ hopeless , and never again, for the record , this is the UK last time I checked. What make you think itâs okay to talk to a customer like that ?!

We were very happy to find out the restaurant is dog friendly, we brought our little dog and the staff were so lovely with her. The food was fantastic, very authentic French dishes - we had the rabbit casserole and boeuf bourguignon, both delicious. Cocktails were fabulous, as good as youâd get at a nice cocktail bar.

Service itself was fine, staff are friendly and polite but the food was expensive for the quality of what was served and overall disappointing. Whilst some dishes were OK like the onion soup and salad (basic stuff), steak was cooked nicely but the peppercorn sauce was inedible, beef bourginon - the meat was dry (sauce was fine), mussels didnât taste fresh and came with hardly any sauce. We spent ÂŁ45 per head for a large group of us for a really underwhelming meal. Avoid unless they get a new chef.

Returned after revamp, am a regular. Nice new bar area, seats and tables. Also new flooring and now more even. However colours are uninspiring, white walls which are bare. The lighting was very bright and place seemed noisier. Xmas decorations give some colour for now. Choice on lunchtime menu reduced and prices up. Very little choice if you're a vegetarian. Omelette, pasta,. No salad main dish, Clearly trying to be more French but I reckon will lose a lot of lunchtime custom to other eateries in Cokfosterss. Let's hope the Spring menu has a wider more inspiring choice. I'll probably go once a month now instead of twice or three times.

The service was quick and friendly, the food was very tasty, my only issue is that the children's menu is not available after 5pm on a Saturday, so my little girl had a bowl of rice, I wasn't going to pay nearly 19 pounds for a plain burger for a 6 year old! Luckily there was ice cream for afters

It's a lovely place but.... Staff and restaurant were great, no complaints. However the food is below average and not filling enough due to such tiny servings. I had lamb shank, and if I'm honest it was cooked poorly and was expecting quilty, also you have to ask for veg separately. The chicken liver pate starter with 2 tiny triangle bits of toast, not even a whole slice was no different from grabbing a pate from tesco and a loaf of cheap bread. The food quality and the prices just don't do it justice. You'd expect more from a lovely looking place like that, especially in Cockfosters and for those prices. Adjust your menu, quality and quantity of food and perhaps a good chef and your winning!

Lovely food. We all ate from the set menu for lunch and the goats cheese starter and sea bass main course were excellent. Others had the calamari starter and the steak and everyone had a desert except me! Crepes and one had ice cream.

We have eaten at La Petite Auberge previously - mainly for brunch, but today we went for lunch with friends. I have not left a review for this restaurant before and was suprised to see on Tripadvisor the recent low star ratings. We were shown to our table by welcoming staff and shortly after the menus were brought to the table with drinks arriving promptly after ordering. We opted for the set lunch menu which provided enough choice. To start the chicken liver parfait with a good red onion marmalade was an excellent choice as was the mushroom with garlic butter and cheese. For the main course we were treated to grilled chicken breast which was (large) and full of flavour. The sea bass was also flavoursome and nicely presented, I had the entrecĂŽte steak, which was medium cooked to perfection and melted in my mouth (only ÂŁ1 supplement) with mustard to complete the dish. Our friend had a crĂȘpe for desert and commented it could have been a little better and thinner - after having devoured all of it! The staff were very polite, attentive and professional and we will be returning again.

Went to the restaurant because of the high reviews . The restaurant was beautiful and a good vibe but the food left us upset . Ordered the calamari and they had left the stringy bits of the squid on so it was so chewy . It was painful to eat as it was so chewy and a choking hazard . We also got steak however it was super undercooked . We ordered medium well done but it was hardly cooked . Itâs sad as place was lovely but the food was not nice at all . Staff didnât care much .

Very disappointing indeed. Went for a friend's Birthday brunch. Ordered sourdough toast with avocado and poached egg because that sounds like a safe option... If a restaurant can't even toast bread, then you know its bad. I literally had two thin slices of bread, not toast, with avocado, which anyone will know makes the bread wet and soggy if not toasted. And two hard boiled poached eggs on top. If you can't even do toast and egg then I dread to think what the rest of your food is like. So I will not be returning. The staff were not really friendly or attentive. I didn't bother to complain about the food as I didn't want to cause a scene at my friend's birthday gathering. I just pushed it around my plate pretending to eat it. But seriously, toast and eggs!!! How can they not even get that right...?? Sad really, they won't last with places like Marlo's just a min walk from there. In Marlo's you get friendly staff every time, actual toast, and perfectly cooked eggs...

There is nothing I hate more than over-priced bad food. If you're not like me, and you like that then this is the place to go. I paid ÂŁ12 for two pieces of wet toast, topped with crispy, perhaps deep-fried? Over-cooked salmon. This was the salmon tartine. My friend had avocado on toast. The toast was not toasted, so was also soggy. The poached eggs were hard boiled. Again, unimpressed. My mum has the steak, which was in fairness cooked perfectly. It however had absolutely no seasoning. My son had a kids meal. It wasn't until the end of the meal when I went to pay that I realised that it should've come with a drink and a crepe. I raised this, no apology was made and I was given a soggy crepe in a plastic Tupperware and some orange juice in a coffee cup...for my 2 year old. I would have expressed my complaints there and then to the wait staff but at no point during the 2 hours we were there were we asked how our meal was. Terrible food and awful staff. Do not eat here or be fooled by the professional pictures on their Instagram or website. While the decor and the setting of the place is lovely and looks promising, the food is bland, mediocre and overpriced. Oh forgot to mention, they slapped on 12% service charge.

Staff are polite and helpful but donât know much about the menu. Average food and alcohol drinks. I had lamb shank which didnât taste fresh. Surprisingly not much of French wine in the menu. Malbec tasted like a very cheap supermarket wine and the Sauternes dessert wine tasted like a sweet alcohol with no flavour. Maybe their wine storage or temperature is not right! Grilled goat cheese salad was good though. No value for money. Their branch in Upper street offers much better quantities.

I'm a huge fan of spicy margs and I was surprised to see it on the menu but this one did not disappoint! The staff are all really nice.

Had my Iphone stolen INSIDE Le Petite Auberge in Cockfosters this evening around 9.30pm. Daughter and I were having a meal and two guys just casually walked in. One walked over to our table holding a newspaper and in a foreign language started pointing to a picture on the front page whilst holding the paper over my phone that was on the table. At the time I didn't think anything of it. We were sitting well inside the restaurant. My daughter and I kicked up a fuss with the staff asking/shouting across the restaurant why these guys were let in and before we could do anything they both ran off, with the guy with the newspaper taking my phone. We chased them out but they ran around the corner and someone observed them get into a waiting vehicle. Shocking! Staff should have challenged the thieves when they came in. And then they just stood by as they ran out.

The bread was burnt bits of crust if you could even call it that! And then they charged us individually for all of these items. Disgusting service and food. Will never return!

We still effectively had to pay the full bill and only had ÂŁ30 off which technically covered the 'complimentary drinks'. Further to this, the manager and staff were all apologetic and quickly mopped the floor, tidied the table and my mother's chair was changed. It is a shame we were not offered somewhere else to sit despite the floor and my chair still being wet. We didn't want to cause a scene, ruin the my little sister's birthday and understood it was an accident. As a result, my mother had to go to the toilet to dry off but a small toilet dryer did not work and she was still completely soaked - trousers, lingerie and one of her shoe. We choose not to go home because it would take to long to drive back and forth to the restaurant and it was already an hour into our dining experience and still had not ordered the mains. My mother requested to change tables as she was still completely drenched and could not bare to sit at a table where the floor was still drying off after the mopping. Again as part of the customer service, this should have been asked to us whether we wanted to change tables. The waiter who accidently knocked the drink took responsibility for his actions and I am grateful he apologised and staff were very helpful in assisting to move our drinks and starters to the new table. My sister and I could not have our starters immediately which was left on the new table because we had to go to the toilets to wash and dry my mothers bag as there was a puddle of liquid inside and her purse, money, items were drenched. At this point the waitress did not realise we still had to order the mains. My family went to the effort to order a custom hand-made birthday cake but when it arrived there were no serving plates or cutlery. My little sister just sat there staring at the cake after she blew the candles, at which point we had to request for plates and cutlery. We were offered 4x complimentary non-alcoholic drinks as we had to drive back home but only received around ÂŁ30 off the bill. and paid over ÂŁ100 for our dishes and drinks that we had ordered. Clearly the ÂŁ30 was to cover the 'complimentary drinks' and so we effectively paid for our full bill despite the table, my mother, the birthday gift was soaked with drink, broken glass on my mother and in the gift bag, my mother had to sit in her wet trousers, lingerie and shoes for the evening, no plates and cutlery given after the birthday cake was at the table. My sister (birthday girl) did not want to kick up a fuss as she was so upset the evening was ruined. All she wanted to do is pay and GET OUT! Once we left I discussed the evening with her and explained she should not have paid for the birthday meals, and she expressed that she just did not want to be in that place any longer as it was ruined from start to the end. I am not expecting a michelin star customer service but the way the situation was handled was extremely poor and we effectively still paid our full bill which should not have happened after receiving a service like that. If we had to stay in the same place and there were small fragments of glass on our table where there would be a higher chance we got injured whilst dining, I would have not been so light on this review.

The food was so delicious. My favorite two dishes were the duck with cranberry sauce and the egg sandwich with sweet potato fries. Starters were just okay. Desserts were nice especially the fondant.
