We went to Le Petit Cafe for a special occasion. We decided not to go away for this occasion but to try Le Petit Cafe, which is more local to us- we hadn't been there in five years but continue to read rave reviews about it.

If someone said to me, "Take me to the best restaurant in the Shoreline area!" (that isn't fried seafood!), I would, without reservation, say Le petit café in Branford. I started coming here back when they opened in the early 1990s and there *also* used to be an authentic Breton crêperie on the Branford Green, which has long since closed.... more
