Must have been an off night. Certainly was for the Canard aux Pommes. It was cooked beyond perfection to a dry leathery consistency. Good for chewing exercise but not what I expected. Duck was consistent with another at our table which was also pretty tough and overcooked. My wifes fish was also overcooked. All the ambience in the world doesn't... More

Chauby, Igor and staff go way out of their way to ensure that the experience you have while dinning at The Petite Snail is as close to actually dinning in France a possible The Food, wine, atmosphere and dé·cor match any found in a small family restaurant anywhere in Paris. Chauby even offered to have a staff member go to... More

The hostess's eyes rolled and she kept repeating incredulously "you have not booked"! She then inspected her book and seemed genuinely delighted that she could accommodate us. All the seating is outside on the pavement, though it is enclosed in canvas and plastic, but it was a very chilly night. After more patrons arrived the heaters high up on the... More

My family recently dined at the Petit Snail and we were delighted with the service, the food and the intimate, no-fuss ambience.

The accompanying vegetables were plentiful, flavoursome and presented at no extra... More

My fiancé and I happened by this restaurant early on a Friday and made a booking for the Saturday night. The staff were very helpful and appear to stagger patrons' arrival times to ensure the best service, which we can certainly attest to.

We were greeted by the chef's lovely wife, who just had the most intense passion and love of what she does it radiates from the place. All of the staff were attentive, friendly and added to the fantastic atmosphere. It made me feel like I was back in Paris. The food was sensational. Snails- delicious. Duck- amazing. Creme brûlée- perfection.... More

On a romantic get away I was wined and dined at the petite snail. The service was above and beyond (I even got a seat for my handbag). I chose the pork belly with rum and raisens & my partner got the steak. The steak was lovely but the pork belly was to die for! We finished off the meal... More

my wife and I traveled to Byron Bay for our 5th wedding anniversary and because of the reviews on trip adviser decided on the Petit Snail for our special dinner. We made the right choice. I had never before experienced French dinning and found the whole experience mouth watering and delightful. We found all the staff to be helpful and... More
