Chic and cosy at the same time, you will leave La Petite Bouffe feeling very full (be sure to come fairly hungry/starving) but very happy. 20 eu fixed menu for dinner included an appetizer (salad with foie gras was amazing, would also recommend the duck pate), a main course (GET THE DUCK, or the lamb), a side of cheese+bread, a dessert (note, the tiramisu actually has fruits not coffee, you should only get profiteroles if you like almonds/almond liquer, and the vanilla creme brulee was warm and perfect), and also tea/coffee. Though they give you a lot of food, they do not compromise on quality. Place gets packed ~9 pm, so if you're an American take advantage and eat earlier (~6:30/7 when it's not peak eating hours)

I almost wondered if they were associated w/ the bakery Paul that I so much adore. I don't think…read morethey are, but the food here is top in this region for serving authentic Normandy dishes. You'll find Normandy beef tartare, Normandy Chicken, Camembert souflee, and a Normandy steak. The set lunch is about 25$ euroes but you get the side, main entree, and the dessert. The dessert list is monstrous btw, and I coulnd't understand most of it, but there are a few key things to get. Sides: Mom got the foie gras with smoked duck slices on top of apple salad (highly recommend for those who want to check off foie gras off your list but have a balanced veggie plate). The apple and duck balanced each other nicely. I had the camembert tart soaked in melted camembert. Not for those who can't handle stronger and soft cheeses, but the melted gooeyness alongside such flakey tart was absolutely delicious. There is something light despite the heavy creams/cheeses/breads that the French people use. If you're afraid of greasiness, this dish does not have that. You don't see a puddle of oil on anything which you would easily see in the US. That is the beauty of any food I find in france. Rich ingredients but don't pile a large pile of oil, an art I think we can learn from. Main entree: We ordered the Normandy steak, the Normandy chicken, and my sister had the Entree du jour which is the salmon with the red wine sauce. Most french cooking will taste "bland" to people who are from Asian countries or nations with heavier spices. french food however is complexly layered with wines and stews and separate parts that must be made in the right order to achieve such fluffiness, butteriness, etc. If you are someone who has keen tastebuds, you will appreciate that the blandness itself is an art that makes you want to finish your meal! I don't recommend salt/peppering your food until you've taken a bite and appreciate the complex wines and refined tastes. Normandy steak came with caramelized onions. The chicken was a thigh, but compared to American chicken, this was not some fat thick thigh you find at Popeyes but a tougher almost rooster version. The sauce was mildly strong in terms of odor like a sweet cheese/wine smell but went nicely with the chicken. Beef- anything grass fed is always going to have a stronger taste. I thought it was fine, but French beef is clearly different from American beef, so if you're used to a milder tasting steak, well marinated, then this dish may be a little strong for you. Dessert: Chocolate mousse was WAY too sweet. I was surprised b/c most French desserts are not that sugary. If there's a 3 chocolate cake layer, get that. It was outstanding. It was mouse, real dark chocolate, and multiple layers that were none too sweet and had disparate textures/tastes/sweetness to it that was delightlful on the tastebuds and made you feel satisfied (hits the right spot). Creme brulee can't go wrong, but this one was a sweeter verson of what I've had so far in France. There are other choices, and you can't go wrong with any of them, but if I would say, for people who love sweet, go with mousse, people who love choclate do the 3 chocolate cake. Service was excellent. Think starch stiff white long sleeve shirts, black ties, and old school French waiter vibe amid an old school up scale setting. Great experience. Highly recommend

Although the menu had a lot of delicious option we opted to go with them 6 service tasting menu which included three appetizers, two main dishes and one dessert (70 euro per per. We though that the tasting menu will be based on the menu but almost all of the dishes were not on the menu! We started with foie gras, followed by blue lobster and then mussels with beans. All of the appetizers were delicious. For the main dishes we did blue lobster (again) and another fish dish. The cream that came with the blue lobster was delicious. Finally for dessert we were served with dark chocolate mint flavor. Surprising the mint flavor didn't ruin the sweetness of chocolate. Overall a must dine in if you are in Rouen.

It's not a tourist trap, just a place that attracts Julia Child fans. We dined there for lunch one afternoon. They offer a 3-course Normandy menu for 29 Euros that changes; a 4-course menu for 45 Euros, and a la carte selections. We selected the Normandy menu and enjoyed a salmon pastry appetizer, a delicious red fish entree, a rib of veal entree, a browned clementines dessert, and a plate of small desserts with coffee. We also enjoyed a glass of wine with our meal. The food and wine were very good. Service was a little slow -- even early in the afternoon before the dining room filled up. The vibe in the restaurant is cute French traditional. Very cozy and comfortable. Julia Child is represented with a large photo on the wall that she signed. Make a reservation as they get busy.

It's also true that it was in the Michelin Guide, including having 3 stars in the 1930's. It isn't in the guide any longer, and I can see why.

Our server was quite nice but often spoke a but too fast for me sometimes. The food was lacking. We ordered the pressed duck which was not good. It required salt to impart flavor. The friend legs portion of the dish was better. They have a decent wine selection, but were missing several bottles listed. I ultimately ordered one that was not on the menu that had just arrived. I enjoyed our experience for the most part, but the relatively poor food quality justifies a 3-star review. It's too bad such a historic restaurant can't live up to its storied past.
