Fort Lauderdale, Florida
String-lit French patio bistro just off Wilton Drive since 2008.
Le Patio is a French and European comfort food restaurant in Wilton Manors, open since 2008. Chefs Jean Dottery and Veronique Leroux run a compact menu — French onion soup, baked brie, stuffed artichoke bottoms, house-made lasagna, shepherd's pie — served almost entirely outdoors on a secluded, string-lit patio. The interior seats just one table and four bar stools. The restaurant sits just off Wilton Drive in one of the most LGBTQ+-concentrated neighborhoods in the country. Dinner runs Tuesday through Sunday; lunch Tuesday through Saturday. Rated 8.2/10 by The Infatuation.
