Reviews
I can't say enough about the unexpected surprise of delicious food, great service and a bar that is worthy of any urban location.
When you walk in you think you've turned into a wonderland, it's very fun the way they've designed the space, however the husband and wife team who run the place care about a lot more than just the decor!
We met the owner standing behind the bar and working alongside his team. He explained this is the second location, after outgrowing the first. It runs like a seasoned establishment and what you came there for... The food and drink, hit the mark!
We tried the crab cake, an inventive play on the traditional, served with potatoes, it was delicious. We also enjoyed a panini and a crepe, both were delicious and just off the beaten path of what you would find nearby.
Definitely a stop for a hungry family, a couple, or the birthday party of a kid.
They are expanding their dinner menu so there's more to come. It's worth checking out the bar, they have a great selection of inventive cocktails and some absolutely delicious frozen milkshakes.... And yes you can get those boozy!!
I don't work for and I wasn't paid by these guys, it was just an unexpectedly great experience!
Went here for late brunch during weekend. Initially they sat us all the way back near the kitchen/bathroom while we clearly saw there are a bunch of empty tables in the middle near the window so we weren’t happy at first. But they managed to move us to the middle near the bar.
First impression when we got in, it was a pretty place with nice decoration. All the bright wallpapers and tables and chairs. The location is also in the corner of the small downtown and it’s looking very nice.
Then we ordered our food - they have a good variety of the crepe menu. I’d say crepes are easy menu, if they have high quality toppings then everything will taste great. I got the Culichi Chocolate Crepe and it’s delicious until the cheese cream overpowers the chocolate. I was craving a chocolatey dessert and wasnt happy when I tasted cheese. It was good but just didn’t expect it taste more cheese than chocolate.
My friend got the savory one with chicken. Sauce was good but definitely overpriced after you add avocados etc. $20+ only for a crepe.
Coffee was good but not special.
Overall, the food was good but not special with that price point.
We came here for a birthday celebration. The staff were all kind and inviting. We had a party of 7 -so it was nice to have been served rather quickly by our waitress who was super sweet. Everyone enjoyed their meals. However, do not order a hamburger well done, my mistake. If I’m honest, it tasted like something you get from the frozen aisle. Speaking of frozen, we were cold the entire time we were there. We asked the waitress if they can put up the heat and she said their heater gave out the day before. She was very apologetic. We didn’t order their signature crepe dishes, but at the end of our meals we did order the $25 birthday crepe. It was adorable with a mini candelabra, it was pretty and delicious, but definitely overpriced. My mother loved the cafe de oya, and the rib eye panini. My husband enjoyed the Focaccia chicken sandwich -the bread was pillowy soft, and tasty. My son had the fettuccini Alfredo pizza, it was a sweet touch to have it in the shape of a heart. We also had their mocha mocha with rose petals -it tasted like your typical abuelita hot chocolate with a little bougie touch. This was definitely a special occasion the birthday girl enjoyed. She loved the aesthetics of this place, but the food was just okay, and the prices were a bit too high for what you get. Overall, I would recommend coming here for their signature crepes and drinks. Maybe we will return to have those next time. And maybe call ahead to see if their heater is working -The uncomfortable temperature made it difficult to fully enjoy. Also, there was a lady on her computer behind us. Not sure if she was a customer or an employee, but it was not the place to be working on a computer, and her big backpack was in our way. We spent around $240 - they charged a 3% credit card fee and 20% gratuity. On a scale of 1-10 I’d give this place a solid 6 for the food and a 7 for the atmosphere and a 10 for service and presentation.
Enjoyed the atmosphere and food. Brought my girls for a birthday party and they LOVED everything they ordered...especially all the details and flavors. A must try!!
This place is amazing. I bit on pricy side but if you save enough pennies, definitely worth it. Makes you feel very fancy and elegant. Everything has a purpose to the theme of the establishment. Even the bathroom look amazing and fancy. Made me feel like I was in a fantasy book. Food is amazing and waiters provide excellent service. Definitely a place to check out if you want a different change of scenery.
Such a beautiful restaurant! We went here based on recommendation and had a great time. Love that there are so many specialty coffee drinks. Each one we ordered had beautiful presentation. It’s clear the restaurant cares about the customer experience. Service was excellent. Savory crepes were delicious!
My recent visit to Crepas Culichi holds a special place in my heart. As I sat there, just after my last chemo session, the staff surprised me with a dessert crepe adorned with the words ‘You are brave’ on top, followed by an enthusiastic round of clapping. It was a touching and emotional moment that I’ll cherish forever.
We’ve been frequenting Crepas Culichi several times now, and it’s become a place of comfort and joy for us. The food here is nothing short of outstanding. Personally, I can’t get enough of their chicken panini; it’s become my absolute favorite. The crepes, oh, the crepes! They’re all amazing, with the banana and Nutella being a standout for me, and my husband adores their chocolate crepe.
Their drink menu is a delightful surprise as well, with options that cater to every taste. Their hot coffee, in particular, is something to rave about.
But it’s not just the food that keeps us coming back. It’s the warm and inviting atmosphere that makes every visit feel like coming home. The staff here consistently goes above and beyond to make our dining experience memorable.
As I reflect on my journey, I can’t help but express my gratitude to Crepas Culichi for making my last chemo session so incredibly special. Your kindness and thoughtful gesture will forever be etched in my heart. Thank you for not only serving amazing food but for creating a haven of support and warmth for those in need of it.
We’re already looking forward to our next visit, and this time, I plan to try their pizza, eager to discover yet another delightful offering at this wonderful place.
Very cute place. They have the cutest drinks. The staff was friendly and attentive. The food was delicious. We had an appetizer and and entre each, we each enjoyed our selection.
