Do not like the outfits the wine tasters have. Not classy at all. Spend money on name tags instead.

Every time we dine at Petite Vie we have an amazing experience. Last night was no exception. The service was excellent and the food was absolutely delicious. We would highly recommend this restaurant and wish that we had something similar in Naperville! This is our go-to restaurant whenever we have the time to travel a little further for dinner.

I’ve eaten at a lot of 5 star restaurants and this experience was as good or even better. The attention to detail was next level. Folding the napkin and putting it next to my plate when I went to the bathroom was mind blowing. Some Michelin Restaurants don’t even do that! The only miss was then men’s bathroom was out of hand paper towels. Other than that it was an incredible experience! I will be back and I definitely recommend! Well done!

Ambience was appealing, attractive and intimate setting, service was acceptable. Appetizers were outstanding as were the drinks. As for the main course my partner relished in her lamb chops, my NY strip was not tender, rather a bit tough. Will pass on this item next time. Overall, awesome place for a dinner and a good conversation.
