Reviews Summary

La Petite Maison is lauded for its consistently amazing food quality, elegant ambiance, and friendly, professional staff. Diners rave about signature dishes and the overall chic atmosphere, making it a top choice for a sophisticated dining experience. While generally positive, one reviewer mentioned a very negative experience with staff rudeness and incompetence, highlighting a potential inconsistency in service.

"It was my first visit to the LPM Abu Dhabi branch, and I absolutely loved it. The space was bright and spacious, creating a very pleasant atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming — I had called last minute to make a reservation, and they were so accommodating and kind over the phone. Honestly, such a respectful and professional team!

As for the food, it was just as delicious as always. I ordered the fried calamari, snails, and the truffle rigatoni — each dish was perfectly prepared and full of flavor. I truly enjoyed the entire experience and will definitely be coming back again soon."

Maryam Alzaabi

"I visited LPM bar on a Tuesday night, and the bartender was incredibly genuine and welcoming, Mr Frederick. He offered me drinks that perfectly matched my preferences, and I highly recommend him and the team! On chilly nights, it's a great spot to enjoy and appreciate the beauty of the place. The flowers in the center were stunning, adding an artistic touch to the interior. Later, he even offered me a coffee liqueur shot!"

Annie Eurdekian

"Had a really lovely dinner at LPM! Big thanks to Ayman for going out of his way to find us a great table, it really made our night. And shoutout to Pailin for her amazing service and recommendation ! She was super friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Great food, great vibes, and such a welcoming team. Definitely coming back!"

La Petite Maison, or LPM as it was once called, is one of Abu Dhabi’s best restaurants.

We highly recommend the lamb cutlets and the rib-eye, as well as the astonishingly good pâté and, we give you fair warning: it’s very hard to resist desserts.
