Le Petit Marcel

Le Petit Marcel is a French bistro in Chicago’s Lakeview East neighborhood, designed to evoke 19th-century Paris. The restaurant operates with two distinct spaces: a cocktail lounge with a piano bar and an elegant dining room for sit-down meals. Owned/operated by a French team and led in the kitchen by Chef Megan Macias (with a background in French techniques), the venue offers an evolving menu centered on classic and traditional French cuisine. Hours vary by day, with brunch and designated happy/piano bar times.
