perfect! simple comfortable atmosphere, great wine! Friendly attentive wait staff. My friend and I shared a house salad - which was just greens with a light viniagrette dressing.. it was lightly chilled , luscious and so fresh that I could have had that alone for dinner. My entree was perfectly prepared. I had Grilled Norwegian Salmon with pomme puree and spinach with garlic. The potatoes were hot and creamy with a lovely presentation. The salmon was grilled perfectly, still sizzling When it arrived at the table ( crispy edges and warm in the middle). The spinach was cooked but still crisp. The tomato/ basil garnish was crisp and cold a perfect contrast to the piping hot entree. All in all this was one of the most perfect meals I have had out in a long time. Thank you for a lovely experience

Ive been here twice. I live a block away. Its good. Better than I expected. French food in a somehow French environment. If you like the pace of eating in Paris, you will like it here. The waitstaff keeps a comfortable distance, but knows what to do, like you like it. Everything is thoughtfully prepared. The bread is particularly good. Ive been to more than a few Washingtonian Top 100 that dont compare to this place. I wonder if they dont get attention because they are doing it effortlessly.

Love the place. Excellent food, good service, convivial atmosphere... Having spent a fair amount of time in France, our Bistro standards are high, and la Piquette more than meets them. Wonderful cassoulet in season, excellent fish dishes, fine steak frites. Good wine selections and prices. Thinking of buying a condo nearby in order to eat here more often. One of our favorite restaurants in the DC region.

This is the crown jewel of French Bistro cooking in DC. The Chef/Owner Francis Layrle works over every authentic detail of this bistrot. Make time to enjoy your meal. Let your mind take you away like you are eating in France. Order your French food memories and you will be transported by the food and hospitality of food and staff. La Piquette needs to be on your DC area foodie bucket list!

Too pricey and quality for the price was not worth the visit. If you want good french thats well price look elsewhere. Cute location. Praised as a must visit for brunch was disappointing. Prix fix brunch with limited menu and not much for variety.

I came here on a friends recommendation. I was expecting some exceptional food but was disappointed the roast duck breast was ordinary and nothing to brag about. The service was slow and the ambience was lacking. No need to return alright.

Superb restaurant with excellent chef and staff. Reasonably priced for a special night out, and having lived in France I was delighted to find their dishes authentically French. We keep going back because it is unrivaled in DC!

Cozy. Like we sat next to the kitchen and very close to our neighbors. Despite how small it is - the food and wine are delicious, and the service is excellent. Can get a little noisy, but if you can deal its great!

One of my favorite French bistros for the price point. Everything I have tried has been delicious and the service is top notch. They really want you to have a good experience.

Delicious food. Good wine list. Service was fair. Cozy atmosphere, especially the bar area. A bit noisy due to exposed ceiling and brick walls. Again delicious food.

Stopped in on a lark and we were entirely won over by the staff and food. Saying they were fabulous does not give them enough credit. Loved, loved, loved our meals.

I agree. This place has wonderful food and wine, and the service is really kind but also really natural and noncommercial. I want to go again and again.
