Experienced a small gathering here and ordered the Croque-Monsieur and oh my I don’t know if I was expecting what I received but it was perfection! I ordered with the egg on top! Delicious! Would order again!
La Belle Epoque always impresses. Their menu is excellent from top to bottom. Their consistency is something to which every restaurant should aspire. I have visited many times and I am always excited to return.
Sarah is a wonderful bartender! She is highly talented and by far the best bartender I’ve ever had. She is so creative with her drinks and is a great conversationalist.
Could be a little more welcoming. Service was ok. Once the food was delivered we didn't see our server again until the end.
Was hungry after early morning tennis yesterday so we tried a new place for brunch. Cute little french place in Media called La Belle Epoque Wine Bistro. French country decor. Small tables (however they gave the two of us a four person table so it was fine). Service was friendly and very attentive. Everything came out pretty quickly and was at all the right temperatures. They had a pineapple mimosa that l liked very much and things started off great with a potato and leek soup du jour! Evan enjoyed his french onion soup as well. After that...things got mediocre pretty fast. I tried the La Belle Steak and eggs which were fine except the steak was smothered in a barbecue-like sauce. I think just a drizzle of that sauce would have been more than enough. Evan's ham and cheese crepe was fine but seemed more like a pancake than a crepe (some level of refinement was missing). I had dessert which was chocolate mousse. Ummmm, anytime I am sure I have made something that tastes better than what I was served, it is likely a disappointment. As Ginny often says, this isn't my last meal so no big deal. But I have to admit I was expecting more!
I felt like Hemingway in 1920's Paris. This place is great.
