My husband I dined here on a cold Friday night in December and it was magical! The atmosphere was cozy and romantic. If we dined here again, we would also consider sitting at the bar if we were looking for a more social experience. Everyone working was welcoming, friendly & professional. Our service was fantastic. They had many gluten-free options & some vegetarian options as well. Their wine list was excellent, notably their cab franc by the glass. Their cocktail list was also creative and had many options that caught my eye. We shared the kale caesar to start. It was crisp, well-dressed and fresh. We both had the steak au poivre and OMG, just yes. It was cooked to perfection, had a great crust, the peppercorn sauce was served on the side (brilliant) was a great compliment. It melted it our mouths. the side of pomme pave was decadent, but not overpowering. Their dessert menu looked enticing, but we decided to end with decaf coffee. If we come back to Telluride, this will be a must for us.

This French inspired bistrot is absolutely top. I have never tasted a juicier and more deliciously savory steak with frites! Tender to the point that there was no need for a knife. The touch of butter on top...just perfection! The whole meal was a balanced symphony of delicate flavors! We were perfectly happy at the bar, as this restaurant is not easy to book. Elegant design for this small venue. Highly recommended. We will be back!

French cuisine with the best twist. Friendly staff, impeccable food and a very strong cocktail menu. Diamond Dave never disappoints behind the bar. We had the Summer Holiday and their take on a margarita - 10/10 recommend. For dessert, we had a raspberry tart with lemon pie ice cream. I wish they sold the ice cream by the pint. It was THAT. GOOD. Make the reservation- you won’t regret it.

I visited with my partner and absolutely loved the food and service. Our lovely server Lolli was fantastic. She was very welcoming and had great recommendations (also speaks fantastic Spanish!). The manager Dee was also very attentive and warm. As for the food, we ordered the salade maison, onion soup, tarte flambee, and coq au vin. Every single dish was perfect - my favorite being the onion soup. I've tried it at over 20 restaurants and this is one of my favorites. The tarte flambee was delicious although a bit larger than we expected, so we were able to save it for later. Our only regret is not trying the baked camembert. We cannot wait to be back for another fantastic meal - thank you Lolli and Dee!

We had such a great diner experience! The place is small and intimate with a real sense of family. We were so welcomed and the service was personable and not forced. Our server, Steve, was the best! The food was also amazing - especially the pork chop and the short ribs. We will definitely be back!!

Really good food and such a cute spot! Small, cozy. 10 tables, 10 seats at the bar but the food was really good. The pappardelle was incredibly soft and the beef bourguinon was sooo tasty and deep and rich. Also their boulevardier had a cocoa liqueur in it that was really rich and different Would recommend this place - either a res or eating at the bar.

I loved this place when it was Little House, and I still love it as Petit Maison. The ambiance, the food, the service - everything is top notch. Come get bar seats if you can, because the bar steak special is not to be missed. And you can watch Adam whip up magical cocktails in front of you! Also don't skip out on the French onion soup. It's the absolute best I've ever had. Thanks Trevor and team for an exquisite dining experience every time!
