What we celebrate at L'Épicurieux is simple, good food and drink. The idea behind the seasonal cuisine is the promise that every bite will please your taste buds in the most basic way - by its freshness. With this frame of mind, we try our best to use products from local merchants. We want each fruit, vegetable and meat to be at the peak of their flavors. We are committed to always offering you the best.
Reviews highlight L'Epicurieux for exceptional flavors, colors and presentations and note a tasting-menu-only approach that many find smart and cohesive, with dishes that lead gracefully from one to the next. The kitchen is praised as highly skilled, capable of reimagining seasonal produce and delivering memorable courses, including standout preparations of cauliflower and seafood, while the wine pairings are generally well matched, though some guests suggest updating the glassware between courses. The ambiance is described as relaxed yet sophisticated, with attentive service and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes diners feel at home, almost like a gathering at a friend's kitchen. Observers also point out the emphasis on local seasonal ingredients and careful attention to allergies, recognizing that the experience carries a premium price. The menu evolves with the seasons and the restaurant is moving to a new location later in the year, with a temporary closure; the concept is widely regarded as a hidden gem and well worth a visit, though not considered suitable for children.
Les plats étaient tous savoureux & vraiment très bien présentés. Les associations d'ingrédients étaient très imaginatives, & le résultat réussi!
Nous avons adoré la formule (petits plats à partager), & le vin suggéré était sublime. Le service est impeccable, le personnel est accueillant & très attentif. L'ambiance dans la terrasse à l'abri des moustiques est géniale. Nous y retournerons sans doute très bientôt!

Merci à l'équipe de l'Épicurieux d'avoir tout mis en place pour nous faire oublier l'instant d'un merveilleux repas, les 3 mois de COVID que nous venons de traverser !!!
