The food was great. Katheryn, our server, was very nice and attentive. They had live music around 6p, which was okay but made it where we had to yell across the table and repeat ourselves to hear one another. Also, there is a lack of central A/C. There are fans on but you cannot feel them on the first floor. Definitely not enough on a mid-summer afternoon. We were very uncomfortable and perspired the entire time.

All three entrees were overly rich. Steak quality was poor. Service was polite but nonexistent once the plates were brought. Should have known since the place was mostly empty on a Friday evening. Save yourself a somewhat expensive, definitely below average dining experience and go elsewhere.

We ordered 2 different entrees and got 2 of the same. The food was meh. Nothing great. The server was attentive at the beginning but then forgot about us but improved at the end. The dessert looked like a mess and had too many competing flavors. I would not go back nor recommend

We ordered breakfast crepes and sweet crepes for dessert. We were a party of 4 and all of us really enjoyed the meal. We all plan to return. The food and the service were excellent.
David
The savory crepes were delicious and filling. We didn't have room for dessert! And the gluten free crepes were perfect!

I found out about this place from @thevafoodies on instagram. We went on Sunday afternoon around 2pm and there were only a couple diners inside. Most people were sitting on the patio and we were sat immediately inside. We ordered the Seafood and Cowboy crepes. They were good portion sizes and the Seafood crepe was the star! It has a perfect lobster bisque sauce that's made in-house. I give it a 10/10 and I will order again. The Cowboy was also really good....steak was cooked perfectly mid-rare. I give it an 8/10. We also ordered the crème brûlée crepe and it was really pretty but kind of hard to eat in the original shape it came in. It tasted fine but I was a little underwhelmed. The portion was fine and it's enough to share. This is kinda nit-picky but there were also whole peach and I think apple slices. If they were chopped it would've been easier to eat. I give it a 6/10. The service and ambience were great. My husband got a Moscow mule and he said it was perfect. The bathrooms were clean and one of them did have a broken deadbolt lock but the handle lock works fine. Only mentioning this because I saw it mentioned in other reviews. Parking may be tricky on weekends but if you drive around the block a few times you'll find something. Overall, I'd definitely go back and recommend to others.

good food and good service and good ambiance. Did not like that Les Crepes added the tip in the bill. Prefer that a restaurant does not include the tip and if they do, it would be good if the wait person mentions it. I paid the included tip but deleted the tip I was going to add, which was more than what was included.

Excellent crepes. Delicious and nice presentation. Enjoyed the outdoor seating. Will be a repeat customer.

Excellent food and a fun place for brunch and lunch. Table service was also very good. There were two issues, however, that Les Crepes Carytown management should address and remedy. One was the restroom situation. The restaurant is quite large, and there are only two unisex restrooms in the entire place. On the day we were there, one of the restroom's door was locked because it was apparently out of service, which left only one available restroom. That restroom was not only a unkempt but, the door's lock has apparently been broken for some time as there is a small handwritten note INSIDE the door that reads, "lock does not work." There is no sign to that effect outside the restroom. I waited at my table for the restroom line to finally dissipate, but when I opened the bathroom door to enter, a woman was sitting on the toilet. We were both embarrassed by the incident, and I quickly pulled the door closed. How difficult can it be to repair the broken lock? The second issue that management should remedy is that, even though there were only two of us dining that day, they automatically added a 20% "gratuity" onto the check. Service was good, so I probably would have left that much or nearly that much anyway, but I was very surprised to see that after I gave my credit card to the waiter and he brought back the final bill for signature, it no longer displayed the additional amount as an added 20%, but simply showed the total amount due (which already included the tip of 20%), and then beneath that amount it had a line for me to enter a tip and a schedule that tells how much tip to enter for 18%, 20%, and 25%. My guess is that diners that are busy or do not look closely at their checks would think they had not already paid a "gratuity" in the original bill where it was included, so they would again add another 15-25% when the final bill was presented, thus making the tip some 35-45%. I believe this is intentional by Les Crepes Carytown, and it is deceptive and wrong.

Great Mother's Day Brunch! Everything was very good - food, service, and the weather was wonderful for outdoor seating! My only suggestion is that Les Crepes offer a smaller portion (half size) on the crepes - so you can order one with all the protein / vegetables, and then treat yourself to one of the sweet ones! I would love a half / half combo so I could enjoy both without overeating!
I enjoy visiting Les Crepes for solo and group dining. I typically get the GFO Salmon crepe and tried out adding crab to it as well. It wasn't bad but I think I'll stick to the salmon in the future. I was saddened to see one of the menu items that I'd had at previous visits no longer on the menu, but the overall visit was good.

Had a great time. We were sat right away, service was great, and everything tasted delicious.

As soon as we walked in for our 8:30 PM reservation, we were told that we likely wouldn't have enough time to eat before they closed and the hostess turned us away. Not sure why we were not contacted ahead of time with that information (reservation was made almost a week in advance) or why they even have reservations available that late if they're just gonna turn us around at the door...
Rachael
The food was tasty but cold and all the crepes were a little mushy. I feel the food is over priced for what they are serving. I've been twice now and not sure I'd go back.
