A delightful meal at Bistro Lepic!! Great service and ambience, as always. My only slight complaint is that the Jazz trio seemed to always be on break! 1/2 the time we were there between 7-9, they were not performing.

Simply the best French restaurant in Washington, a hidden gem that reminds of Camille’s in Le Marais. Everything done with care, respect for tradition, and a little subtle flair. For those with European tastes, it does superb rognons and liver. But everything is delightful and the specials change often. From the first plate of warm bread to the desserts, a perennial favorite.

The service was lacking. After the appetizer server did not come back to check on us, never asked about refilling our wine. The food quality was also subpar from what I expect from Bistro Lepic.

We went to the wine bar upstairs bk of jazz night. We were seated next to the band, the upstairs wine bar is a tight space and the level of conversation loud. Still, the entire atmosphere and vibe were wonderful. The jazz band was excellent, our service people skillful in navigating the mildly crowded and noisy environment. The food was excellent french cuisine, service great, music wonderful and the entire Wednesday night jazz fixe price menu is not to be missed!

We had a very nice pre-concert meal at this intimate, unpretentious French restaurant. The food was excellent, without all the heavy sauces that sometimes dominate French cuisine. Service was outstanding: responsive but not intrusive. They should drop the slightly too loud pop music. Would definitely go again!

Bistrot Lepic is as good or better than ever, with classic French fare and a terrific selection of French wines by the glass, priced sensibly. They changed what was once the upstairs lounge, and it is now another intimate floor to the restaurant, also decorated with wall murals. It was a short vacation to France in February.

From warm, freshly- baked bread to a fabulous chocolate ganache cake - and in between a very tough menu to decide on, but chestnut soup, goat cheese pastry, venison, and crabmeat-stuffed flounder over asparagus with forbidden rice - it was just a terrific Valentine's Day dinner

Went for a date and had a great time, only thing was it was very expensive. This small piece of steak and French fries was 52$ which I think is extremely expensive for the size of the steak. Otherwise we had an amazing time and the waitstaff was so nice and attentive.
