Was given a gift certificate to L'Epicerie Market for Christmas last year by my sister-in-law. We were very excited to use the certificate, but were saving it for a "special occasion." We finally went in for breakfast and enjoyed a small but tasty breakfast. However, when we tried to use our gift certificate, we were told that the gift certificate... More

Date of Review 10/19/2012 Review Of: L’Epicerie Market Location: 9900 culver Blvd. Culver Ciy , CA 90232 L’ EPICERIE: THE THIRD REICH CAFÉ L’Epicerie’s décor portrays itself as a French theme restaurant; however it more accurately embodies a Third Reich Concentration Camp and Café staffed with black uniformed Gestapos posing as baristas. In the one month I have patronized L’Epicerie... More

I have eaten here three times: twice for lunch and once for drinks and light bar fare. The two lunches were disappointing in that items that should be authentically French were not.

Had lunch with a friend; I had wanted to try this marketplace/restaurant. Food prepared with care - I had the hamburger which was excellent. We also tried the smoked salmon croissant, also very good. Desserts and coffee also very good. Can be busy at lunch time and parking a challenge, but worth it.

I have eaten here for breakfast and dinner and was pleased with both visits. The decor is simple and clean and the service is good but slow. The food is excellent for the price. I was served with the lightest and most flavorful waffle I ever had. However, eggs were not available a la carte. A French cook was busy... More

www.lepiceriemarket.com PARKING on Dusquesne (short walk) or in city parking lot (walk a few blocks). DECOR contemporary, minimalistic, reminiscent of current Paris eateries; a little noisy because the place echoes a bit; the welcomeblackboard (inside) has arrows pointing to the different areas, such as go-left-to-dine-in, go-right-for-coffee-only. MENU short BREAKFAST egg dishes, stuffed croissants, cereals - field mushroom and swiss cheese... More
