    Everything was nice. The only thing that I must say is that the cheese plate was very small and the service a little bit too long. Otherwise, the food was really good and the decoration of the restaurant was pretty.

    Admittedly, going to this restaurant for dinner on Bastille Day may not have been the best idea. Lots of others had the same idea. As a result, service was very slow that evening. Food was delicious. Wine was lovely, too. A live accordionist in the restaurant added to the French ambience. Our waiter thanked us for our patience and apologized for the slow service that evening. The menu is limited, focused and done well. Both entrees and the appetizer were delicious.

    Never got in since they did not honor my reservation. But since there was a loud accordion player who would have made it impossible to hear each other, I am glad we had to find somewhere else.

    They did not get the open table reservation so I had to show them email. It was Bastille day and they were unprepated- took 2 hours to get food. If they had not had music it would have been a disaster. Owner Pascal needs to sand and varnish the tables and upgrade the food.

    We have loved this little restaurant over the years, but lately have had worse and worse experiences here, mostly involving slow service. Bastille Day was the straw that broke the camel's back. First, apparently they have difficulty with Open Table reservations. I made a reservation through Open Table, but when we got there we weren't on the list. Luckily (or not, you decide) there were tables available outside, and the weather was ok, so we got a table. We saw that it was busy, so made our selections quickly and ordered. The server brought our drinks (note: the wine was pretty terrible, like it had been opened for a long time - if you order wine here, go for a bottle and just take the extra home), and that was the last we saw of her for the next 45 minutes until our food came. We had ordered the pomme frittes to share, but she hadn't brought them, so I asked if the fries were on their way (they normally bring them before the entrees), and she replied "I only have two hands". Well. I hadn't asked in a nasty way, but her reply indicated that she certainly took it like I had. In any case, the fries arrived. Normally our favorite part of the meal because they are so good. I bit into one, and it was like biting into a pretzel. Upon inspection, the whole bucket was like that. When the server finally came back (at this point we were done with our entrees), I asked if they were supposed to be so crunchy, since they were never like that in the past, and she said that they were supposed to be thin, that she couldn't control what happened in the kitchen, and that they were very busy. Um, yes, obviously! Didn't offer to replace the fries or substitute them for something else. Given the decrease in quality of the food and service, I'm not sure we will be back.

    I have been coming to Creperie ever since I randomly bought a groupon for this place and it's been consistently delicious. It feels very homey here and the prices aren't crazy. You do get the feeling that you might be elsewhere in the world - France - while dining here. The savory crepes are my favourite: Amish chicken, sausage, ratatouille, steak - all delicious. I always get the escargot. Recently tried their sweet banana crepe - delicious! I recommend for an intimate date during the week, the ambiance is great, laid back. Be prepared to take your time here.

    The food was tasty, but service was so slow. I'm not sure if they were understaffed or what, but the two servers could barely keep up. Go at an off hour and it's probably lovely. Sunday lunch was just annoying.

    Friendly, prompt service without being intrusive. Creative mix of salads and fish, but we come for the crepes with all their various ingredients to chose from.
