THE CURRENT NAME IS LEMON AVE CAFE. After wandering around trying to figure out where we were, we saw the La Creperie Cafe sign on the inside of the dining area. This post is mostly for that info. We ate Nutella banana French toast and Hawaiian French toast (made out of Hawaiian bread). They tasted a teeny bit burned, but they had a good consistency and they looked perfect. It could just be my taste buds. Good location, parking on the street and right next-door. Very nice servers. Clean restroom. Will go again. A lot of food looked excellent.
Food, service and ambiance are All delightful. I had the eggs benedict with side of potatoes-delicious. The service was good and pleasant. There are many selections and the ambiance is sweet. Good stuff!
My husband and I came here for lunch. It's in our neighborhood and we've never eaten here before. 5/5 French onion soup SO MUCH GOOEY GOODNESS 5/5 hot filling cinnamon sugar crepe So light and fluffy and perfection 2/5 steak, ham and turkey burrito My husband ordered the steak, ham and bacon burrito, but asked for no ham or bacon since he doesn't eat pork. We were hoping the burrito would have a bit more steak, as it was mostly egg white and tiny but if potatoes. He was very disappointed. I felt bad, but at least he got some of my great food. Service was great. She was very friendly And helpful.
Always a good spot for breakfast, Brunch, Lunch or dinner. Delicious food as always and George is always taking care of everyone with his great character. I had the steak omelette with extra beef, the other dish is Crepe Carbonara and for dessert we had the Martinique. Highly highly recommended! For the ambiance they have a French Bohemian style decor with French music in the background. Nice wine list as well. We sat outside because it was a beautiful day!
Well this is our second time here at this restaurant. To be honest with you, the first time was questionable, and usually, we don't go a 2nd round. However, I talked to my husband to try it again. We are both happy we did. The pictures below says it all. This meal and service were right on point. The reason I did t give the a 5 star was the first time we felt rushed because they were closing in 1.5 after we arrived. Please note: this time we arrived earlier and no customers were at the restaurant but us. I would say call prior because they close when they want to. Meaning we witnessed 2 couples,were told by the establishment they were closing at 2pm when the clearly website states 3pm,yet the sign on the door is blank.lol. This Foodie blog person will continue to keep you posted on this establishment.
AMAZING!! the service is top notch, and the food is delicious and filling! prices are good... wonderful sunday brunch. natalie was wonderful! checking up on us often and always being accommodating. the food was immaculate! i got the to your health crepe and my mom got the crepe madame. our food came out quick and was delicious! we wanted to go to broken yolk but the wait was long so we found this wonderful crepe place on yelp! there's a ton of yummy brunch places in the area. the service definitely shines here. really, do come! it's so great in many ways. our server natalie suggested us either a strawberry or dragonfruit mimosa since they're seasonal and not on the menu... amazing!! loved my dragonfruit mimosa. defintely stop in for breakfast, it's a delight!
I have now been to La Creperie Cafe twice, so it is time to review! I am so happy about this establishment having opened because I really like them! I love the crepes, and am happy I won't have to drive to Sierra Madre for good crepes now that I have them here. For the savory crepes, I have ordered the Zorba both times I have been there, and have tried the Curry because someone else ordered it. I absolutely loved both! The Zorba has an amazing tomato sauce that I really want to have on a pasta or something, lol. The Curry crepe is also fantastic, but unfortunately, I won't be ordering that because I am trying to eat vegetarian... actually, I wish they had a tofu or veggie version of this! For the sweet crepes, I have only had the napoleon, and it was great! I loved that creme brulee they put in it, such a nice touch! The service is also great! The people working there are so nice, and the gentleman that has helped me twice even calls us "family," not necessary, but a nice touch! Anyway, I hope they do well because I really want them to stick around. I think they opened during the pandemic, so that has to be hard. Keep up the good work though!
