Bistro L'Hermitage

“We have visited this restaurant twice, and both experiences were excellent. The food was delicious from the appetizers to the desserts. The customer service was outstanding, every employee we interacted with was polite, friendly, and helpful. The staff were knowledgeable about the menu and took the time to explain the dishes in detail. The interior design has a charming French style that creates an authentic and romantic atmosphere. The restroom was also clean, fresh, and well maintained. We thoroughly enjoyed our visits and look forward to returning.”

“We came for Valentine’s Day and had an amazing experience. The restaurant was beautifully decorated with heart balloons everywhere, and the atmosphere felt elegant — they took our coats at the door, which made it feel extra special. My pork chop was perfectly cooked — juicy and full of flavor — and the steak my partner had was incredible. The grilled lamb sausage appetizer, desserts, and wine were all excellent. Highly recommend for a romantic night out — we can’t wait to go back!”

“What an amazing experience! Have been wanting to visit for a while and finally made it in for a date night. Right from the reception, everything about the evening was outstanding. The service was prompt, pleasant and attentive. The food was served incredibly fast and tasted absolutely delicious! We had the onion soup and salade verte to start, the filet and tuna for dinner and crème brûlée for dessert. The ambience was great and welcoming too. Overall an exceptional experience and we will be back!”

“We celebrated my wife’s birthday and it was absolutely amazing! As their website implied, “A Hidden French Gem In Occoquan”, we couldn’t agree more. The food, customer service and overall atmosphere were outstanding. We had French onion and tomato soup for appetizer. We then had salmon, pork chop and sea bass for the entree. We finished with Grand Trio (chocolate mousse, crème brûlée, & Lemon meringue tart with raspberry coulis) and cheesecake. My wife said it was one of the best crème brûlée’s she ever had. Since it was her birthday they gave her a free champagne drink during dessert. We will definitely be back and I strongly recommend giving this place a try.”

“Had brunch here recently and the experience was a mixed bag. While the service was attentive and the atmosphere was enjoyable, the food fell short — particularly the chicken, which was quite bland and lacked seasoning. For the price and setting, I expected more flavor from the brunch menu. That said, the staff made the visit pleasant and the vibe was great. I'm willing to give it another shot and plan to try the dinner menu.”
