French Bistro Epice

Visitors recommend the roast duck breast and burdock-root soup at French Bistro Epice. They feature among the dishes praised by one diner who enjoyed a meal from starter through to dessert at lunch. For those considering a set menu, the range of flavours offers the chance to take your time over each course. Other menu options mentioned include salmon with cream cheese and amberjack prepared in a carpaccio style, making it possible to move from a seafood starter to a meat main.

For a fish dish, options include pan-fried sea bass and meunière-style sea bream, while beef fillet and lamb are possibilities for a more substantial main. One diner singled out the lobster parcel, saying it was rich in flavour for its size. Another noted that the lobster made its presence felt from the first bite, making this a dish to consider when choosing a seafood centrepiece.

At another meal, diners enjoyed milt in turnip soup, amberjack with celery sauce and a choice of main. The experience of a set menu may vary depending on whether you opt for a lighter progression centred on fish or choose a more filling dish such as duck or beef fillet. A lunch guest particularly enjoyed the Rossini, too, making it one possibility for a special occasion.

Some diners say they were helped to choose wines to go with their food, and the selection is described as extensive. The restaurant is presented as a small bistro with a relaxed atmosphere, suited to lingering over a meal and conversation. Reservations are recommended for both lunch and dinner, so it is worth planning ahead.
