La Crepe Bistro

My son was in the mood for crepe, so we found this small and cute place in South Miami. The place is eccentric, and the decor is simply charming. Stefan was very attentive and we were very pleased.

La Crepe Bistro was wonderful! The owner and staff were so friendly and warm. My cafe mocha was supremely chocolatey. We got two breakfast crepes: the marine and the caprese, both were amazing, tasted fresh and had a lovely little side salad with them. Highly recommend and will be back to taste the dessert crepes!!

La Crepe Bistro is the best. Every time we come here is definitely a treat. The service is always friendly and very attentive. Ambiance is cozy and casual, it has that fresh vibe and easy going spirit. Old pictures on the wall from back in the day when the owner was a boxer makes it like you are part of the family. Although service and ambiance are great here, the food takes the main stage every time. Usually, we order the french onion soup which is delicious... the broth is flavorful and light... very comforting. The crepes are light and thin, very tasty. I usually get the crepe Marine which has smoked salmon and a creamy sauce that takes it over the top. (It is a must-have) Also, the omelets are my wife and son favorite item. Either make it your way or pick from their menu, you can't go wrong. Everything is incredibly delicious. Thumbs up.

Picky eaters are here. I would highly recommend this cute spot. Yummy beef stew soup and crepe. Nice def will come back Oh they have hanger for bag☺️

Excellent French bistro, atmosphere took me back to Paris bistros. Great, attentive service. Variety of crepe options on the menu. Traditional French dishes. Beef bourgiugnon was very good and homey, comfort food and warm. Bread pudding was delicious! Cozy spot to come for lunch. Come early because it was full when we were leaving at 12:45 on a Sunday. Will come back.

What a cute creperie & Cafe! Nice Menu, great service, super prices! I was looking for a light lunch on this hot Tuesday afternoon. The soup & half-sandwich offer @ $16.95 was great. The Leek soup was very tasty. The 1/2 sandwich was more like a 9" baguette with ham & cheese toasted, outstanding! I topped off lunch with a capuchino! Great stop, very nice owners! Next time I will order a crepe!

Review for service as didnt even get to eat here although based on other reviews it sounds like the food is very good and the owner is the problem. Came here with my two kids for a party of 3. Not busy at all. Tables open inside and outside including a two top and four top outside. They asked inside or outside and i asked for outside which after reading reviews it sounds like that’s where he wants children anyway. They showed us to the two top which was very small for three people let alone three plates. I didn’t even argue but asked if they could move table over a little so we weren’t in the sun. 4 top was completely shaded. The owner came out aggressively to tell me they couldn’t adjust the umbrella and would we sit inside to which I asked why we couldn’t sit at the very available 4 top and he just shook his head no, so I just said we would leave then. Asking three people to sit at a bistro sized two top is pretty insane to begin with but I was willing to accommodate only to then be told we’d have to sit in the sun. After reading reviews it’s clear he’s a problem and while food sounds good, can’t be good enough to be worth being treated badly by the owner of the restaurant. Maybe he’ll change his tune when rents keep skyrocketing and he can’t afford to turn away customers just for the sake of being rude.

Our favorite place , homemade family cooking super tasty, feeling like at home, the beef stew, and tarte Tatin to dy 😋 .they have a very good beer ,la cadette.

When I think back to a trip to Paris, one of the things I miss was an authentic creperie. Not just those crepes with Nutella you can get at the fair (though they have those too and they're far better than the fair variety). I'm talking savory crepes with buckwheat and great fillings. Have you ever had a chicken Caesar crepe? This one was great. Fresh ingredients. They had lots more French food on the menu too which we enjoyed. Topped it off with a nice iced latte. Inside is small but quaint and we were served quickly. All in all, a true hidden gem. Loved it.

This is my grandmas favorite French bistro so I took her here for lunch. I had never been because they close early or I come when they're on vacation. We ordered two omelettes and it came with fruit, bread, and jam. I love a good omelette and that's exactly what they served. It wasn't too over cooked and it was lightly buttered (perfection). This place deserves 5 stars just for the service. The owner greeted us with open arms and was attentive throughout our whole visit.

Very unwelcoming place! Rude owners sadly. We will never return The owner created a commotion unnecessarily, disturbing his clients and embarrassing us and our guest who's visiting Miami from MA. Miami and Coral Gables deserve civilized owners that know how to manage their anger, even the more when it's groundless

Was so good the first time we went back that same weekend for Sunday brunch with our kids & mother in law.Again, not disappointed! We were 6 & they were packed so we did have to sit separate but it was no biggie especially because our wait time did go down from an hour plus to 30 minutes. Staff made sure we were comfortable, all super attentive. I decided to go with the croque madame this time and absolutely amazing !!! They informed me they ran out of ham & did turkey instead ... phenomenal. Love this little gem. Was just telling my coworkers we need to do a post shift breakfast here. Love the freshness of the food, friendliness of the staff. I love that the owner chimes in & talks to you like family.

When you come into La Crepe Bistro, you feel as if you are home. The French owner treats everyone as if they are family. The homey decor fills one with a sense of comfort and warmth. The food is also delicious, comforting French food. I sampled the homemade zucchini soup. It was lovely and creamy. I don't how they do that and keep it dairy free. I also tried the salmon and brie omelette and mushroom quiche. These were all daily specials. I love that I can come here every day and have something different. This may become my new neighborhood spot.

I ordered a tuna sandwich. The tuna and the bread were hot. It wasn't what I was expecting. This is my second time in this place. The food is okay, nothing great. The service was very poor. I asked if I could get something different instead of hot tuna and the server told me I have to pay another sandwich and started to get an attitude telling me that is the way tuna sándwiches are.... Just disgusting and disrespectful. Not even questioning how he can make me happy or accommodate my needs, just an attitude like I hope he is the owner of the restaurant. Otherwise I don't understand.

La Crepe Bistro gave me the most pleasantly surprising AMAZING dining experience! It was exactly what we were looking for: a lovely lunch escape from a day of work with delicious food and great vibes. I ordered the fig, brie, and prosciutto tartine, while my boyfriend ordered the mozzarella sandwich with pesto and prosciutto :). Genuinely, this one was one of the best Miami lunches I've ever had -- I'd definitely consider this a top South Miami spot! Plus, the service was excellent, complete with kind and friendly waiters.

Charming, gracious, delicious, worth it! Just go ! The breakfasts, brunches and lunches are every time excellent! The owner is warm and welcoming! The wait staff is attentive! The Chef is truly French and runs a delightful business! We love the French onion soup, the fresh house salads, the oversized omelettes, all of the menu is truly French -you will be so glad you went ! We love this gem !

Rude owner who backs as waiter with mediocre food. For Mother's Day I took my wife for breakfast to this restaurant which was more than half empty. Owner who was our waiter poured a glass of water all over us by mistake but since we came here before it was not a big deal. Food was ok but nothing special like Gustavia in Coral Gables. When we finished the food with no more incidents or any conversation, we tipped 15% which it was more than appropriate for the quality of food and service. Owner asked, if something was wrong with the food or service, and if it was not, to not come back again. I said no problem we will not come back again. Rude owner then started to escalate in front of my wife and daughter and a 6 top table of people that were looking at him scared and making faces. This is an unprofessional and rude owner. Draw your on conclusion if you want to put up with somebody like that. All he had to do is service the table 18% or 20% not necessary to be rude to people. Previously we tipped his teenager waiter 30% feeling bad that he mistook our order and they replaced it. It's a shame that people like this are in service industry and that might work in a tourist trap in France but I hope people know and make their own informed opinion.

Hidden gem. Food was totally amazing. The service is friendly and quick. Also very authentic it was the Best croque monsieur in the city.

Worst experience I've ever had in a restaurant. Came to meet a work colleague for a coffee and the owner, extremely rudely told us that it was a "restaurant" and we need to order food or take our coffe to-go. He continued on loudly and rudely for several mintues and told us to order or pay the check and waited staring while we finished our coffees. It was so shocking. The restaurant was mostly empty, plenty of open tables and no one waiting. I've never been spoken to like that in any business and will never go back!

If you are a masochist and like to be mistreated, this is the perfect place for you! The owner was rude and did not want to serve coffee at 11am. He said: Lunch is the only thing he would consider to serve. Literally kicked us out and dare me to leave a review... the "breakfast" place was half empty, the service was terrible and the owner a true SOB. Zero stars if I could.

First time I went there, it was closed. This time it's open. Ordered five crepes: crepe marine, crepe vegetarian, crepe parisiennne, crepe fromager and crepe yummy yummy. Crepe yummy yummy is too sweet for my liking. Disappointed with crepe Parisienne and crepe fromager. They are similar. Can't tell the difference between them. Crepe fromager supposed to have more cheese but there is hardly any cheese in it. Crepe marine is my favorite. Very creamy with lots of sauce and salmon. Thumbs up to this one. Crepe Vegetarian is also good. Lots of mushrooms. The service is really good.

Great little spot. I love interacting with the owners. They're very kind, and welcoming. The crepes are great! I inhale them before getting to take a picture, but I did remember to snap a pic of the amazing French Onion soup and chicken sandwich combo. Amazing café au lait too.

On Saturday, January 21, my husband, my 1 year-old son and I visited La Crepe Bistro for breakfast. What we thought would be a wonderful experience became one of the worst dining experiences we have ever had. To give some context, my son was born 4 months premature, and was intubated for a long time. Because of that he has a sensitive gag reflex. We have had experiences in the past where, if something "goes down the wrong pipe" he gags and vomits. You might know where this is going. As he ate the fruit parfait at La Crepe, tragedy struck. Either a piece of granola or a banana must have gone too far back and my son began to gag. An incredibly kind gentleman sitting at the table next to us immediately got up to see if he was choking and if he could help. What came after was a vomit, and the usual anxiety and overwhelm that comes from a parent who has experienced this before. While this has not happened often recently, I can tell you that every single other time that it has happened, the restaurant we have been at has immediately sprung to action-- to help clean up, or offer a rag or even to offer a napkin, to check in on us and see if everyone is OK. That was NOT the case at this restaurant. From that moment on, we were treated like a nuisance, like pariahs. As we cleaned up our son, the table, his chair, his bib, we were ignored. Nobody from the restaurant offered us an ounce of help or even checked on us for that matter. It went from bad to worse as my husband walked inside to rinse off my sons bib in the bathroom. He was stopped by a woman (the female owner?) before he could enter and told "not to walk in with THAT" (referring to anything that had vomit on it). He was asked to walk back out and figure out how to clean it elsewhere. As we cleaned the table, not one person came with a mere rag to help things along. When I finished wiping down the table, I walked inside to ask for a bad or to help me throw away the pile of napkins I had (napkins that I had gotten from the entrance area and from our neighboring table who offered to help). Just like my husband, I was immediately stopped at the door (this time by the male owner) who very aggressively asked "What is THAT?!". He refused to let me inside the door and asked me to walk to the end of the strip mall to dispose of it at another garbage can. I truly felt like just throwing the pile of napkins on his floor and walking away crying but I instead did as he asked. You'd think it wouldn't get worse, but it did. I asked for the check and, for the first time since the incident, the owner approached the table-- not to ask if we were ok, but to toss napkins at me and demand that I "clean the floor". At this point, I was indignant. I heard someone from a nearby table say "that is ridiculous " and that gave me the fuel I needed to stand up and say "no". I tried to explain to the owner how disrespectful he was and how he could have taken a moment of anxiety for parents and made it much better with some help, some rags or even a kind word. Instead he made us feel like we were criminals for having a baby that does something as HORRENDOUS as throw up. He could have shown an ounce of empathy and instead he chose antipathy and venom. To top it off, when I was handed the machine to pay, a tip had already been selected for me and the screen was on the signature page. I canceled the transaction, which infuriated the owner. After that action and my words, the owner was irate. He called me every name under the sun and I did my best not to cry and kept emphasizing how he could have just shown an ounce of empathy. He was so bothered by my words that he screamed "Leave and never come again" among other "friendly" phrases. I will never visit that place again, and, if you have children, or anyoneee who might mistakenly make a mess, I'd advise that you rethink visiting this establishment as well.

Amazing petite French bistro! The food, attention, music, and cleanliness are 10 out of 10. Ordered crepes Forestiere, Rocky Road, and Bistro on a cloudy Sunday, and they were delicious! We will come back to try other dishes, for sure.

This is a very special place. Authentic, delicious, cozy, and quite heavenly. The service is phenomenal. If you are looking for an escape from the typical every day, Miami life, I highly recommend this little gem.

Their soups are the best!!! Ofcourse their eggs, crepes, and croissants are delicious too. Love this neighborhood gem.

La Crepe Bistro never disappoints! The service, ambiance and food are always top notch. French Onion Soup, Tartines and Coffee are a must have when you visit. Excellent menu, many options to choose from for breakfast, brunch, lunch or simply a dessert. Miami's best French Bistro

I ordered the Omelette of the Day which had ham and Swiss cheese, a baguette, and a side of fresh fruit. Omelette was a very decent size and tasty! The restaurant is super cozy and small. The owner and staff treat you like family.

This place is a gem in South Miami. The owner is a retired French professional boxer who decided to move to Miami and open up a cafe. Amazing French food, I take clients and other work related meetings here all the time. Phenomenal service, phenomenal food, can't say enough good things about this place!

Best french toasts and the crepes in the entire state. Friendly owners. Clean and tidy place. Amazing breakfasts are here. For the ones that want taste the real taste

We went for coffee on a Thursday morning but the owner kicked us out because we didn't want to order food. He is very rude and very disrespectful!! I'm never coming back to La Crepe Bistro!!

Cute little authentic French spot in an unsuspecting South Miami strip mall. Service was very kind and attentive. I ordered tea from a large assortment of choices and a salmon crepe, no cream cheese. The side salad was good, and the smoked salmon combined with the crepe and capers was delicious! The portion didn't really fill me up too much but the prices are very good. I love the outdoor atmosphere and I will definitely be back!

Ordered a croissant and cortado to go, with my wife and two year old this AM. Two tables were taken and the other 10+ were empty. We decided to sit down at one of the tables instead, to allow my wife to enjoy her coffee and our two year old to enjoy her croissant. The rude, abrasive male owner didn't have the respect or courtesy to address me, and instead directed his arrogant comment to my wife and daughter, "you know you can't do that right. If it's to go, you must go." I can understand if the place was slammed, but he was being rude for no real reason, even admitting had we ordered the same thing and sat down instead of asking to go it would've been fine. To say the least, it was an unpleasant experience. And they use Nesquik for their mocha drinks. The container is next to the espresso machine. Authentic.

Never even made it in the door. Stood at door no tables avail owner comes out says next table is yours. There was no one else waiting . Within 2 minutes of our brief conversation a 4 spot table with three get up and leave. Owner then says next table for two is yours . Still nobody else waiting for a table. Walks away from us leaves us standing there with a clean table and nobody there i gesture over to him if we can sit and he ignored me. If it were a reservation issue a simple explanation of that would have sufficed but he was super arrogant. Rather than lose my temper I just walked away. I've never felt discriminated at a restaurant but today felt that way.. wound up at Cracked by Chef Adrian and the food was great. Your loss

Do yourself a favor give this place a shot. The food is fantastic as is the service. The onion soup is one of the best I've ever had. Good portions and fair pricing. The place is small and clean. If you get there early you can get a table outside.

Wanted to have breakfast there with a friend. A French man was setting up the tables outside. I ask: hi! What time do you open? He responds very seriously: not now. (And continues setting up) This is how you talk to customers? Without us, you don't have a restaurant. And I'm sorry, but being French doesn't mean you can use our language in a rude way. I will never come back.

This place is terrific!!!! We stopped in for lunch. We have been to France a few times and this food is also amazing. I am a croque madame super fan and I feel this bistro cooked the best I have tried in the usa and France. Our service matched the quality of food which was fantastic!

A friend of mine recommended this place and I went with her this week. We all had a wonderful time thanks to: Their great service and how helpful they were with the five of us. We had a baby and they tried their best and accommodate our needs in order for us to enjoy our lunch. Their coffee late was delicious. The crepe I had with chicken, melted delicious cheese, and lots of the mushrooms, was sensational. Their prices were great for the quality they offered. They have a seating area inside and outside. Thank you and I can't wait to try your breakfast. PS: they have breakfast at any time!!!

I love this place . Everything on the menu is delicious. The place is cozy and clean it feels like I'm in a cafe in Paris . The best French

Love this place so much! Their soups are the best I've ever had. Food & crepes are so delicious. I also love their lemonade. Service is excellent the owner is super nice and attentive, even on a busy day. I totally recommend this place. Super clean. Always a excellent lunch when I come! :)

Stopped by La Crepe Bistro for a small breakfast on Saturday morning. Shared the Crepe Normandie along with a side of Bacon. Quality La Crepe Bistro has a large selection of all sorts of different crepes to choose from. Whether sweet or savory there is an option regardless of what you would want. I was in the mood for sweet so ordered the Crepe Normandie, which is filled with apple chunks and caramel, covered in powdered sugar and then vanilla ice cream is poured on top. Basically a nice apple pie contained within the crepe. It was good, but nothing crazy. The crepe was very soft and it came with a fair portion of each ingredient. My girlfriend insisted on getting some sort of salty side and we ordered the Bacon, which was fine, but considering it really isn't really even on the menu it was fine. Honestly it was another situation where if I was a bigger coffee fan I probably would have enjoyed it more. Quantity Both the Crepe Normandie and the side of Bacon were very fairly sized. Since the Bacon is not offered as a side on the menu we probably got lucky as they really loaded up a plate. Value Maybe a bit pricey for crepes as the one we ordered was nearly $11. But it is a small place so I understand the need for some up sale. Ambiance La Crepe Bistro is located in South Miami in a small strip mall. It is a strip mall that contains three different French spots each of a slightly different nature. La Crepe Bistro has a small outside area on the walkway with about four tables and shade provided from an overhang. Inside you will find several more tables, but it is a relatively small shop. The majority of the space is taken up by the kitchen and preparation area. The restaurant is decorated with some French posters and pictures, but it is pretty bare. In the background you will find light jazz and classical music. It is a very casual and calming spot to enjoy a light breakfast. Crowd There were a bunch of people enjoying some food and coffee on a Saturday morning. Several had newspaper while others were with family and friends. It is a very casual vibe and seemed like a locals spot. Service The service was a bit slow, but nothing crazy. Considering it is at a cafe where no one really should be in a rush it is nothing to worry about. I did not love that almost all the empty tables were dirty, probably need to be a bit quicker about wiping and clearing for the next customers that walk in. Parking There is a small lot right in front for patrons of any of the strip mall stores. Be warned they have a security guard constantly watching so don't try and go anyone else. You can also opt to street park as there are lots of meters in the area. Extra Although nothing special, La Crepe Bistro is a quaint little cafe and breakfast spot to enjoy in the morning. The food is decent and the ambiance is nice, and while there are ways to improve it still is not a bad place to grab something light to eat.

For a small " ma an pa" shop these guys really pull a heavy work load. The owner was on site. Knee deep in the thick with his employees in a pandemic as a kitchen guy myself, that is something I genuinely appreciate. The bathroom was clean. The food was good. It's small off the beaten path , but definitely worth more than one visit. They know their stuff and do it well. Poc friendly. Definitely a spot for a quick breakfast or coffee if you want to avoid the mainstream bustle.

The food here was absolutley delicous. I tried the vegetarian crepe and it was great. Big fan of the goat cheese. We also got to meet the owner who was very attentive that we were enjoying ourselves. Great breakfast spot near UM campus. Will definetly be coming back here!

Excellent French food. This place is always busy ... but it's worth the wait. The owner is very attentive and friendly.

Such a sweet breakfast spot! When we arrived we immediately were sat down on a Saturday morning which is great. I ordered a cappuccino and it was so delicious! I enjoy the cinnamon sprinkled on top. I ordered the two egg breakfast with the French bread and it was great! Everything came out quickly and it was very tasty! I also enjoyed the fresh fruits on the side. I'd love to come back for another time besides breakfast because I love the French vibes.

I have been there before & the service is amazing...the owner Stefan makes sure you enjoy your meal. Checks in with a cheery demeanor. Crepes delicious & omelette too. Ambiance is quaint & soft music to relax & enjoy your meal. Definitely going back!! Try them out

Amazing little known gem.... Everything in there menu is amazing... you'll fall in love with this place and soon become a regular!

When I thought I had tried the best French breakfast in Miami, BAM! I come across La Crepe Bistro! Divine croqueta Madame. Very tasty and with lots of Bechamel sauce (unlike other places where you have to request it!). I tried from my siblings' plates. They ordered different types of crepes and it was not disappointing at all. The sweet crepes are also divine, although I would've like more fruits in the banana-strawberry-Nutella crepe. Onion soup, one of the best I've tried, and what's even better, IT IS NOT SALTY! It is perfectly balanced and with a very rich flavor! They can work a little more in the decor. But over all, is great. Service is awesome, very attentive and event with a full house we never felt left behind. Coming back to try more of your menu! Please, my fellow yelpers and readers, tip your servers! @francescaMusica

My husband and I went to crepe bistro on 4/21/19 for the first time... this place is very small with the option to sit outside. The food was tasty, fruits were fresh, waitress very nice and attentive. I would go again. thank you.

The owner asked us to change to another table as we just ordered a cup of coffee and a croissant. With a really bad attitude. We decided to go as his attitude was really bad. We told us we does not care at all.

Excellent, authentic, quaint and very friendly. Can't say enough good things about this place. Get there early or you will be waiting a while to sit. And even then, it's worth the wait. The owner is on hand and is always around should you have a question.

Don't know if the food is great or not but do yourself a favor and don't even bother. My mom, son in a stroller and I sat outside to not bother inside since the place is very small. Owner who has no manners came outside after being there for 15 mins. To tell us that was a table of 3 that we were only two and had to go inside. I told him I have a stroller we won't fit he said yes yes. So We went inside, once inside he made someone get up from his table to make us sit in that table screaming at us and other customers. We decided to leave won't ever be back.

Wow. Can't believe it took so long to come here. The food is terrific. Some of the best crepes I've had. I had the crepe madame and French onion soup. You cannot go wrong with either of those. The whom I assume is owner or manager is the real deal, a handsome French man who will bend over backwards to make you comfortable and happy. We'll be back

Oh my! This place exceeded my expectations! Food is authentically French, in this mom and pop hole in the wall little place!! Beautiful, quiet, clean and delicious! Their cappuccino is brewed to perfection and served just like it is at the little street cafes in Paris. The tartines will melt in your mouth and the quiche is sooo yummy too: from texture to taste, 5+ stars. The Miami Lemon Crepe is so so so good - I loved that they dont overdo the sweetness like most other places and I wanted to order 10 more. Honestly, this is my new favorite spot and can't wait to come back again and again and be transported to my days in Paris

Love it! Something a little different, very good! We sat out side on a beautiful day! The service was outstanding. The food was delicious. We got some coffee drinks, Fred got an iced mocha and I got a latte. Fred's drink was awesome. We did pay around 50 bucks for breakfast with two meals and two drinks each(fred had two iced mochas and I had 2 lattes). I suppose that is par for Miami. We will be back!

OH MY GOD i love this place. The food is excellent and the owner and his wife are the best. Recommend this place 100

Wow, what a big surprise this place turned out to be, located in a strip mall close to Sunset place, you find one of three French establishments. The exterior is very small but homey and the waitress seated us right away upon our arrival. We decided to order the sunny side up with a baguette and fresh fruits and a pesto crepe with slices of prosciutto. The baguettes was perfect the closest you will find this side of Paris, nice crispy on the outside and nice moist in the inside. The baguette went super well with the strawberry jam and the fruit were very fresh and sweet. The pesto crepe was amazing with a good portion of nicely sliced prosciutto, with the delicious home made pesto sauce. I am already planning for the next visit for brunch!!

We tried this place for the first time today. We liked it, and would go back again. You can have a decent a Good breakfast. I had the Spinach Quiche and liked it. It was light and fluffy, but it was a little watery. My boyfriend had the complete breakfast, and the scrambled eggs were great! We were a little disappointed with the French bread and the almond croissant. They wet just not that authentic French bread or croissant.
