We had reservations for Wednesday evening. The restaurant seems quite popular, as it was busy during dinner service. We were warmly greeted upon arrival and seated immediately in a comfortable booth. Our server was attentive, though very serious -- perhaps leaning into the French ambiance. For dinner, my friend and I both ordered the trout maison. It was okay -- simply a piece of trout served over some rice. The sauce was a bit unusual for my taste. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't particularly memorable either, and my friend felt the same. My husband ordered the pork chop and absolutely loved it. My friend's husband had the burger and fries, which he said were decent, though not outstanding. We also shared several starters: the crab cake, escargots, and French onion soup. My husband really enjoyed the soup (I didn't try it, as I'm not a fan of onions). The crab cake and escargots were good, but again, nothing that stood out. For dessert, we ordered the mille-feuille and the Valrhona chocolate mousse. Unfortunately, both desserts were disappointing. The chocolate mousse had a slightly gritty texture rather than being smooth and silky, and the mille-feuille just wasn't to our taste. Overall, the service was solid, the ambiance was lovely, and the food was decent -- but not particularly memorable.

Was able to try dishes and took pics and the cuisine and drinks here are amazing, the gnocchi is excellent, the bread with Normandy butter is great and their two mocktails are quite good. Stellar interior atmosphere that's very classy and excellent service. Highly recommended!

Love the vibe of this place! I've been twice during happy hour in the bar area and it's a great deal! The food is also really good and I love the location in midtown. Recommend the gnocchi!

Started off with the Kir Royale cocktail, which was great and refreshing. My table got the baguette and bread and the escargot for our appetizers. The escargot was very flavorful and buttery. My entree was the moules frites. There were so many mussels in the pot and the broth was nice. I had one mussel that did not taste right at all. The fries that came with it were soggy. I wish they would've served a baguette instead of the piece of bread with the mussels because that bread just got soggy when I tried to dip into the broth. Service was warm and welcoming. I got a dirty martini to end the night and it was great!! Ambiance was a 10/10!

Service & Atmosphere Le Parisien delivers a polished, high-aesthetic bistro atmosphere that feels both classic and contemporary--equally suited for date nights, business dinners, or celebratory gatherings. It's stylish without being stiff, energetic without being chaotic, pairing a lively dining room with attentive, warm service that elevates the experience beyond casual neighborhood fare. Service is above average and attentive. Water refreshed, napkins replaced promptly, and hospitality consistently warm. Escargot - Garlic herb butter, Harvey's Bakery Baguette ($20) The escargot was absolutely delightful. The right notes of butter, garlic, and herbs gave way to soft, succulent snails, finished with a subtle, surprising hint of nutmeg on the back end--an unmistakable nod to classic French technique. Harvey's baguette proved the perfect vessel for soaking up every last drop of butter. The opening course confidently set the tone for what was to follow. Crab & Leeks - The crab cake, bound with shrimp mousseline, reads more like a French galette than a traditional American cake. A well-caramelized top heightens the natural sweetness of both crab and shrimp, providing contrast to the soft, custard-like interior. The sherry vinaigrette is abundant, and its base seems to be crème fraîche which brings a pronounced sour edge; when used sparingly, the acidity rounds out the bite, but in excess it can easily overpower the delicate shellfish. French Onion Soup - caramelized onion, country toast, comté gratiné ($19) The French onion soup is crowned with a generous, bubbling layer of rich, nutty Comté. The broth was delicate yet familiar, carrying deep onion and stock flavor without becoming heavy. Chunks of bread, both soft and slightly firm, soaked up the savory liquid beautifully. It is a thoughtful, well-executed take on a French classic. Gnocchi à la Parisienne - chablisienne sauce, oyster mushroom, parmesan ($24) The French gnocchi elevated the evening to borderline transcendent, quite possibly the best gnocchi dish I have had in two years. The reduction of Chablis, butter, and cream moves across the palate with precision, giving way to deeply savory mushrooms and a surprising, perfectly judged note of tarragon on the finish. It is absolute perfection on a spoon. The gnocchi themselves resemble small pearls of pommes dauphine heaven, offering a delicate, almost caviar-like pop with each bite. Rich, decadent, and devilishly delicious, this is the kind of dish that defines a kitchen's capability. Canard à l'Orange - brioche brown butter, roots purée, frisée ($32) The final entrée was Canard à l'orange, described to me as cooked confit. It arrived topped with a large heap of greens dressed in vinaigrette, resting over the duck and finished with a notably sweet orange sauce. The combination of the tangy greens and the sweetness of the sauce created a dominant, lingering note at the back of the throat. The duck itself was tough and chewy, with the knife struggling to cut through the thigh. The root purée, was silky and beautifully balanced. Bread Pudding -- Apples, Spice, Ice Cream ($13 + $3 Ice Cream) Bread pudding was a surprising choice, especially with soufflé and mousse on the menu. Given its English origins, it felt out of place in a restaurant positioning itself around classic French tradition.The top featured nicely caramelized edges, giving way to soft, custard-soaked bread in the center. Notes of apple and cinnamon carried through each bite, with buttery caramel drizzled over the top. The ice cream was somewhat bland, though it did contribute added richness and a welcome temperature contrast that rounded out the dish. It was an average bread pudding. Mille-Feuille -- Puff Pastry & Crème Pâtissière ($13) The mille-feuille was classically structured, with a satisfying crunch from the puff pastry and a very thick layer of pastry cream in the center. The top was brûléed and partially dusted with powdered sugar. It is an average, take on a French staple.

Food, Service, and Ambiance all good. We went for happy hour (Tuesday-Friday 4-6pm). We ordered everything on the happy hour menu except the fries. They have $6 wines and cocktails along with $5 beers. We also ordered the beet salad, gnocchi, and the porkchop. Would recommend!!!

Leeks
Krystle K.

Stunned is an understatement. Our experience here was wonderful! We started with the leeks, a great light option and full of delicious vinaigrette flavor. I had the salmon(they were out of trout) and my boyfriend had the steak. Both were superb. My boyfriend said his steak was the best he EVER had. I don't eat red meat so I'll take his word for it! Service was fast and attentive. The atmosphere was my favorite part of the restaurant. There are outside tables fully equipped with ash trays, of course. I see is a French home vibe and I absolutely loved the music, made the atmosphere fun and uplifting. Very impressed and will definitely be back!

Gnocchi and croque madame

Great ambiance, friendly staff and even more wonderful food. Would dine here again! I loved the parisien cocktail, great twist on a French 75

Now, I've been out to eat A LOT but when I tell you this was top 3 meals in my lifetime I mean it. We had a reservation for 6 and traffic was tee getting up to the city so I called and the owner of the restaurant answered the phone telling us to take our time. We got there at 6:02 and were seated in the bar area. A cute booth for two with a cozy intimate date night vibe. The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful and it doesn't feel like you are in Oklahoma City. Our waiter was also one of the bartenders and he did a wonderful job taking care of us. We started with the escargot and just wow. The butter, the favor, the side hot baguette was just perfect. We then got our mains (the French dip is a bar exclusive so I don't think you can get it in the dining room). We tried the French dip first and O MY GOD it was amazing literally just melts in your mouth. I wanted to try the crab cake because I have heard mixed reviews. As a Maryland girl, I know what a good crab cake tastes like. Now this crab cake is very different from the ones I am used to but I don't care because it was AMAZING the flavor and the brown butter was perfection. I am three cosmopolitans in at this point so I told our waiter to bring over his favorite dessert and I was a hazelnut pastry and it was so light and clean after a heavy meal. I will also will note the owner talked with us for a while educating us about himself and the food prepared which was honestly so special. Le Parisien has become my favorite restaurant in all of Oklahoma and it's not even close and we will 1000% be back!!

Wow. Wow. Wow. Food: Not only is this place NAILING the French cuisine and flavor profile, it's also putting brilliant french-spins on feel good classics. If the hamburger was invented in Paris it would taste like this. But, trust the process and order the omelet for the table, it'll expand your sense of reality. love. Service: The owner is legit Parisian. Fees like you're being transported to some kinda chill hot spot in Paris. they nailed it. Staff is super cool and respectful. I was there first night and it was SLAMMED. They went out of there way to keep everyone happy, even though some things were delayed Ambiance: It's a whole vibe. I came with friends, but i'd be a champ if i came back with a date.

I got to try out this great new location this weekend, and I'm so excited to continue visiting here. The ambience of the entire restaurant is very welcoming and a total breath of fresh air for this area. I tried several dishes, including the leeks, which I will absolutely be ordering every single time I go back! I did not get a picture of the rice pudding I had for dessert because it was so delicious I completely forgot, but it was the perfect mix of texture and flavor. The staff here are very friendly and more than happy to recommend a wine pairing for your dish.

Wow! What a wonderful addition to the OKC food scene. To begin our party of four shared the escargot, baguette, French onion soup and breakfast radish. All were so delicious and personally I have a hard time picking a favorite. For our main my husband and I split the steak and frites. The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and the sauce was sublime. My sister chose the crab cake and it too was amazing. BIL had the mussels and said they were delicious. Service was fantastic. Attentive but not overbearing. Prices are also reasonable. We will definitely be back.

Great place for weekend breakfast!…read more I went here with my breakfast group for our monthly meetup on a March Saturday morning. I am grateful to OKC food writer Greg Horton for mentioning La Baguette as a good breakfast spot in a piece that I read recently. Our server recommended the crepes as a standout breakfast item, and they delivered. My companions ordered the crepes normandie, while I ordered the crepes parisienne. What a delight! I hesitate to order some breakfast items because I prefer mildly sweet things. I like pancakes and French toast with just a drizzle of syrup, and I only need a thin layer of jelly on my toast. This strawberry crepe was delicious! They put strawberries and whipped cream inside a crepe, folded it over a few times, and then mounded some more strawberries and whipped cream on top. No other toppings needed! I tried the crepe by itself and was delighted to find that it had a mild taste. The strawberries were surprisingly ripe for March. Kudos to them for finding a great supplier of late winter/early spring strawberries! Also, the whipped cream tasted great mixed in with my hot tea. Definitely need to come back for more breakfasts!

I also had broccoli soup as the soup of the day but forgot to take a photo…read more This restaurant is an old classic. It's a nice place for a lunch date solo, paired, or in a group. The servers were quite attentive and patient. The food was pretty good. I was impressed with the pecan crusted Brie. Vegetarian options are limited, unfortunately.

I actually crave these things, sometimes. Lunch specials come with one, along with your choice of hot and sour or egg drop soup. My favorite is the delicious hot and sour soup.

The pork fried rice is the best in the city, I think. And the menu gives you so many delightful options to choose from. And their veggies are SO fresh and perfectly cooked. They even put the classic onions, carrots, and bell pepper in their sweet and sour (if your waistline can handle a splurge, it's also one of my favorites).
