It was my first time and I had such a great experience! The food was fantastic and the wine added such a nice touch to the evening. I loved all the variety of wines available as it allowed me to explore and try something I couldn’t elsewhere. The food menu is also quite varied and has something for everyone! The service was great and quick, even though it was fairly busy. Will definitely be returning!

The food was delicious, especially the foie gras appetizer and the dessert soufflé. Service was attentive, and the ambience resembled a delightful French bistro.

Dining experience at The Little Gem was excellent. Service was smooth and appetizers and entrees were spaced nicely. We were a party of six and everything was seamless. Good menu choices and excellent preparation.
