Petite Jacqueline

The fine folks at the much praised Five Fifty Five have done it again with Petite Jacqueline, their newest entry into Portland's vibrant restaurant scene. Think fun French when it comes to this exciting eatery. The atmosphere is relaxed, casual, a classic bistro environment. The menu is reasonably priced with light fare that is both tantalizing and savory. Each dish is prepared with an eye toward the attractive but with equal emphasis on delighting the palate with fresh and tasty foods. Among menu standouts are Seared Local Fluke with capers and butter; Boeuf Bourguignon, a French classic featuring Burgundian Beef Stew, mushrooms and fresh Maine potatoes; and Saumon A La Poele with pan-seared salmon, mustard creme fraiche, and crushed fingerling potatoes. Gourmet desserts include Creme Brulee, Petite Gateau Chocolat, and ice cream are not to be missed under any circumstances. Whether a casual night out or something more foodie focused, be sure to visit Petite Jacqueline.
