    This was our 35th wedding anniversary and my wife enjoyed this more than ever. We had a great meal which was a perfect portion and all was superbly presented. The service staff was very attentive and ensured our drinks were hot (coffee) or filled upon questioning (water). The surprise anniversary sorbet was a delightful surprise and closed out the dining experience on a high note. Highly recommend Bistro L'Ermitage to all who want excellent food, service, and atmosphere in one location.

    Everything was fantastic with the exception of the children at the table next to us. The parents were not that involved and the one little girl, maybe about 8 years old, kept intermittently screaming.

    This is one of my favorite French restaurants in the area, and the food are always been good, but this time half of the dishes with fish were just not good. The Seabass was mushy and somewhat fishy and then the anchovies with the Caesar salad was extremely fishy that I couldn’t even eat the anchovies in the past the fish has been amazing here the Vlogger was still really good, but this was the first time where I’ve gotten dinner and I wished I had chosen something else.
