There is no need to cross the Atlantic for an unforgettable Parisian evening. Nestled along Wisconsin Avenue, Bistrot Lepic & Wine Bar has welcomed Georgetown diners since 1995, offering the relaxed elegance of a neighborhood bistrot with the polish of fine dining in DC.
A Relaxed French Dinner in Upper Georgetown
Begin with a warm greeting from the team and settle into the convivial dining room, where soft lighting, classic décor, and thoughtful service invite you to linger. As the evening unfolds, the menu brings authentic French cuisine to DC through time-honored techniques, seasonal ingredients, and contemporary touches.
A standout choice is the tournedos au poivre: a tender, beautifully seared cut accented by the savory warmth of pepper sauce. Rich without feeling heavy, it is the kind of classic dish that transports you straight to a Parisian table. Each luscious bite pairs naturally with polished service and an atmosphere designed for conversation.
Thoughtful Wine Pairings
The experience continues with a visit to Bistrot Lepic’s celebrated Wine Bar in Washington, DC. The carefully selected program features French favorites and distinctive bottles chosen to complement the menu. A structured Bordeaux can bring depth to the tournedos, while a bright Rhône or Loire selection offers a more nuanced contrast.
Not sure what to choose? Ask the team. Their approachable guidance makes discovering a new bottle feel personal, never intimidating.
