We were charged $27 for an omelette at lunch, which is listed in the brunch menu for $14. It is not on the lunch menu, but the server said fine. Didn't appreciate being held up like that.

Our dinner last night was not our first visit to Bistro Lepic. As always we were warmly welcomed and later were rewarded with the delicious French dishes they cook so well. Suggestions for wine to go with the food were appropriate and well priced. We will be back again and again.

This has been a reliable classic French bistro over the years. We returned for the first time since the pandemic and everything was off. The duck foie gras was expensive and bland. The waiter failed to bring the onion tart appetizer until after the main course had arrived (and failed to bring the espresso, ordered with dessert, at all). The veal cheeks seemed glutenous and heavy, making the noodles the star of the dish. The waiter spilled the remaining third of our 2015 bottle of Pomerol onto a customer at the next table; fortunately for us the wine was also disappointing so our loss was not great. Overall, an off night for Bistrot Lepec but the outdoor seating was a plus.

The food at Bistrot Lepic never disappoints. The trout almondine is so delicious that I could eat it every day and never tire of it. My dining companions had veal dishes and loved them as well. Even the bread and butter is special. For dessert, I highly recommend the almond pastry and warm chocolate tart. The setting is charming and the restaurant staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome.

Good place to take an elderly family member. Quiet, nice ambience, good service. Many restaurants amp up the food experience with rich foods (translation - "fat," or should we say "lipids"), salt, sugar and maybe other substances that enhance each fork full but afterwards leaves you feeling yuch. The foods I ordered were very rich - maybe I just mis-ordered. The glass of red wine was warmer (73 degrees?) than what I would have preferred.

Had a super great brunch at Bistrot Lepic! Was getting together with old friends and the round table at the back of the first floor was just perfect! Great cosmos, and loved the French onion soup and duck confit. The rest of my party loved what they had, too! We ended staying and hour and a half, we were having such a great time!
