Review from Dan B.

Before I retired, i travelled on business and was able to dine at a lot of good restaurants all over the United States. Petit Paree happens to be in my hometown, but it honestly ranks up there with the very best I've had.
It's been in the same family for over 50 years, and as far as I can tell the high standards haven't changed a bit. Their prime steaks are still hand cut and cooked on a charbroiler that's almost as old as I am. They get a wonderful char to go along with their great taste and tenderness. The sirloin or filet matches up to any of the big steakhouses but their bone in rib eye is the best I've had anywhere.
One of the keys to this place is that they still do most everything in house. Their sides are whatever the chef has found to be in season, and the croutons, soups, and salad dressings are made right there. You'll find the best coconut cream pie you've ever had, made earlier that day.
Festus is a small town but you can apply big city standards to this place and still be impressed. -

My sister just had her rehearsal dinner here the other night and it was DELICIOUS! The steak was made exactly how I asked for it to be made, the twice baked potato was delicious. And the staff did an amazing job accommodating our large group. I ate too many of the rolls; which were fresh and warm. Good place for fine dining in Festus.

There isn't a whole lot of fine dining down in Jefferson County, but Petit Paree is delicious no matter where it's located. Petit Paree has been in business for over 45 years, so you know they know what they're doing. The mood here is elegant but unpretentious, and the wait staff is very friendly. When I come here, I usually get the frog's legs (which I can't get anywhere else, it seems). I'm dying to try their escargot (which they were out of when we came). If you're in the Festus area already and haven't taken advantage of this gem, you're crazy. If you're not living in Festus and haven't been to Petit Paree, you need to remedy that quickly.

I challenge anyone to find a better restaurant in a 25 mile radius. I probably would give it 4 stars in a major metro area but I'll give them an extra star for bringing a taste of gourmet to a culinary wasteland and for making my Grandma so happy. Grandma loves their lobster and talks about it all the time. I have to say I was surprised how tender and delicious the lobster tasted despite it's previously frosty state. Everything else we had also did not disappoint. For a real meal and break from the smorgasbord of fast food places and smorgasbords, Petit Paree

5 stars on their chicken wings. If you go there, no matter what you gotta get these as an appetizer. They are probably the best wings I have ever had and I have tried hundreds of places.
