We actually came here for one reason -- we were craving borscht. It was so good that we ended up coming back the very next day to try more of the menu. The second time we ordered syrniki, mushroom crepes, and sour cherry crepes, and honestly, every single thing was a great choice. The syrniki were soft and comforting, the mushroom crepes were savory and filling, and the cherry ones had a really nice tart flavor without being overly sweet. It's not often that we return to the same restaurant two days in a row, but this place absolutely earned it. Really good homemade-style food and definitely somewhere we'd come back to again. read more

Absolutely incredible little hidden gem in Fremont! Everything we tried was delicious -- the borscht was outstanding, rich, flavorful, and tasted wonderfully homemade. The sour cherry crepes were absolutely amazing, with that perfect tart cherry flavor, and the mushroom crepes were just as delicious. Even the tea was excellent and made the whole meal feel extra cozy. Lucy's Crepes is one of those rare places you're genuinely happy to discover -- authentic, comforting, beautifully made food that feels special rather than generic. A true hidden gem tucked away in Fremont. 10/10 -- absolutely worth seeking out, and I'll definitely be back! read more

Hole in the wall with a whole lot of freshly made savory and sweet crepes alongside some Moldovan staples to keep those tastebuds exploring! Squeezed into the corner of this mall generally dominated by the grocery store and surrounded by small businesses, Lucy's Crepes is yet another brick and mortar that the community has embraced. This unassuming cafe/bistro has a range of menu items to satisfy every meal from breakfast and lunch to a midafternoon snack or early dinner. We came in for an early evening supper and were pleasantly surprised to try some dishes and flavors new to us! Seating is somewhat limited to small to medium sized groups but they do have a few small tables for those looking to dine in. The place is quant; it's decorated with artwork (some for sale) and mismatched furniture. Should you decide to get takeout, it's just as good given that the food travel well. Their collection of savory crepes had some interesting flavor and texture profiles while calling back to some traditional dishes of the owner's cultural background. The crepes were all cut into small bite sized portions, making sharing a breeze. In addition to their standard menu illuminated up top on the screens, they also had specials or limited time items offered and written on a chalkboard near the register. They also have some small desserts and pastries if you're just looking to pair something with a coffee as you camp out and work here with their complimentary WiFi. Pacific Ocean - this savory crepes was packed with a cured salmon that was pickled in a reddish hue giving it a fabulous color and taste. The protein rich dish was delicious and filling. Garlic chicken pesto - a spinach loaded savory crepe with thick pieces of chicken breast gives this dish a hearty feel. The inclusion of all the necessary food groups combined together in a pesto sauce makes this a complete dish to satisfy hunger, nutrient deficiency, and flavor cravings. Garden - a healthy, vegetarian crepe packed with juicy mashed eggplant, tomatoes and olives. The slight acidity of this dish opened my appetite. Chicken mushroom blini - a thin crepe wrapped around a medley of chicken and mushroom. Served with sour cream, this was a light dish packed with flavor and protein. Stuffed cabbage rolls - off the special menu, these little dumplings wrapped and braised in cabbage were delicious and juicy. A traditional dish served in a decorative clay-like pot gives its the aesthetics before biting into the meaty fun-sized morsels. The staff were super friendly and showed genuine interest in satisfying their customers. The food was prepared diligently, made with consistent quality, and tasted great. We had a chance to catch up with Lucy before she left for the day and gave our thanks for such a wonderful meal. Overall, Lucy's Crepes may not wow you in terms of presentation, but they shine where it counts - the quality of ingredients, flavors, and service will easily keep you coming back. Prices are reasonable for the value as each dish is plenty filling enough and definitely shareable. Being in central Fremont, it's convenient to get to and perfect for those of us constantly on the go, but also serves as a nice pit stop in between destinations. If you're in the mood for some classic, traditional flavors cooked with the care of a mom and pop, make your way to this gem and you may start calling it home! read more

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Great sweet and savory crepes. Came for breakfast with a friend, right when they opened at 9am. Tucked away in the corner of an aging strip mall, it's easy to miss. My friend's been living in the area for a few years and had been to the dosa place a few doors down and had not noticed it. I, an out of towner armed with the Yelp app, was the one to suggest it. It turned out to be a fortuitous find. I got the Veggie pesto crepe (very tasty and healthy, with spinach, tomato, mozzarella and pesto sauce) and my friend got the Chicken & mushrooms crepe (3 wrapped crepe that looked similar to large egg rolls). We also shared a Fruit combo crepe (strawberries, banana, Nutella and whipped cream--delish). Coffee was good, too. Good food made with care but not cheap. Friendly service from the older owner couple--Romanian, from the flags we saw hanging on the wall. The decor was pleasant but the place was a little worn overall. They had some intricate doily-like things on the wall that looked to be traditional handicrafts, as well as some paintings from their paint nights. If you're looking for crepes in the area, it's worth a look. read more

I love this Crepe shop! My favorite is the Avocado Crepe. It's fresh, made with care, and so delicious! We also tried the tiramisu crepe and it was so beautiful and tasty! Very rich and we had some tea to balance it. The owners are so nice and the interior is so cute! Highly recommend. read more

Cosy little spot here in Fremont shown to me by a friend of mine. Their special today was Plov and it was tasty. Every bite was flavorful. The place feels like you walked into your favorite aunt's place and she's spoiling you during the meal. Bringing the food out to you and very helpful with the condiments. I enjoyed the berry crepe and iced coffee there and took the plov to go to share with a family member. I don't think I'm going to share anymore. lol After running errands I was able to dig into the plov and it was worth the wait. Re-heated up nicely and sooo good. Comfort food for sure and will definitely come back. read more

What a delightful little Fremont gem. Admittedly, I haven't sampled any of the savory crepes or soups yet, but they all look super appetizing for sure. I sampled three dessert choices and could tell right away there's a lot of attention to detail and a great passion for their craft here. You can tell in the complex flavors with each subsequent bite you take, the quality of the ingredients and the great presentations. The famous honey cake here is delicious. Great texture, beautiful layers, a light and not overly sweet honey undertone that finishes with a clean, lemony flavor that I wasn't expecting. The pavlova was an interesting one. A crunchy meringue base with a cream on top. This one was a bit sweeter, but a nice mix of textures. Then there's the napoleon classic. Beautifully presented, uniform filling and dough layers. That delicious custard worked perfectly with the crunchy topping. Each bite tasted like a wonderful custard-filled cream puff exploded on your palate. Thank you Lucy. I'll be back for more sweets (like those meteorites) and to try some savory options. read more

Small mom and pop shop serving crepes. They also have some Eastern European and Central Asian dishes. I loved their blini with beef. My favorite thing was their Medovik dessert. It's creamy, has a decent honey flavor, and not too sweet. Sometimes I'm really craving some Russian desserts and this is the only place in the east bay that I found that actually makes them. read more

Garlic Chicken Pesto Crepe (4/5): The crepe was not too thick and had a nice touch or crispiness. The crepe had a good amount of filling and the flavours were comforting. I grew up eating a lot of crepes and i think they do them pretty well here. I wish there was more cheese, but the flavours all meshed well together. Garden Crepe (3/5): This crepe was good but i think the amount of olives overpowered the crepe. I tasted more of a salad than the crepe itself - but that might be the intent. If youre looking for something that tastes like a salad, this is for you. Honey Nut Cake (3.5/5) - thought it was really sweet at first but eventually grew on me. Napoleon Cake (4.5/5) would honestly go back just for this. Its not too sweet and its a nice balance of creamy and flavor. read more

We absolutely love this place for its Moldovan/ Eastern European dishes. Whenever those cravings kick in, we are there! The ingredients are fresh, the dishes taste homemade (like mom, grandma or auntie would cook for you). We tried several dishes - mostly from the Specials menu: plov, kebab, vinegret salad, borscht, cabbage rolls (golubtsy), honey cake and kompot juice. read more

Was in the neighborhood and looked up crepes and this was number one with really good reviews. Not very friendly atmosphere when I went in, I got the berry crepe and added bananas which I'm glad I did because it was my favorite part. The actual crepe itself was a little thick and had a wierd spice in it? Almost like it should have been a savory crepe? I felt like it was middle eastern inspired so maybe if that's what you are wanting, it through off the whole dish for me and I just ate the inside out which was good so that's the three stars. read more

Tried this place for the first time since I was craving savory crepes. I ordered one that had cheese, chicken and mushrooms. I requested no cheese, but was told it wasn't possible. So I tried it anyway. It came out looking like 3 enchilada shaped crepes, not what I was anticipating. It came with sour creme on the side. However, the flavors and texture was good. If I go back, I would order another type of crepe since it was too cheesy for me. I also ordered a cappuccino with almond milk and it's was delicious. The cafe is tucked in a corner in a shopping center. It's very small but welcoming inside. I would give it a try again. read more

Service was amazing and the food was great. Little too much whipped cream for me, but otherwise it was delicious.

There are places you visit not just for the food, but for the feeling of home. Where the borscht smells like you've just stopped by Grandma's for lunch. Where syrniki bring back childhood memories. And where crepes are always a good idea -- for breakfast or simply to brighten your day. When you're far from home, you especially appreciate hearing a familiar language, meeting people who feel like family, and enjoying a moment of comfort and connection. If you've been missing homemade food, places like this still exist. read more

Let's start with the location. Sketchy. Had I not searched for a crêperie and yelp given me precise directions, I would've never found it tucked in the corner of this questionable strip mall. Although, I never want to judge a book by its cover, driving past the abandoned, Red Lobster with the many homeless sleeping out front should have clued me in. The restaurant is itself is small, packed with miscellaneous things, and confusing. It seems as if they are unclear whether this is a crêperie, or a Ukrainian lunch spot with varied items on the menu such as Pavlova's and Borsht. As for the food... to be fair, I only ordered a banana and Nutella crêpe, but it was just mid and not enough to bring me back. From other reviews I see, others have had more positive experiences. So, take what I have to say with a grain of salt, and be the judge for yourself. read more

We tried Lucy's crepes for the first time and everything was great! It's a small shop tucked in the corner behind the complex but it was a nice intimate vibe. There are lots of options for sweet, savory, vegetarian, and also small desserts. We decided on the avocado mozzarella crepe and the banana Nutella for a mix of sweet and savory. They came out pretty quickly! It's also self-service so you just get your own utensils. The crepes were so yummy and also very filling and we still had leftovers. Definitely recommend! read more

5/5. Crepes are amongst my favorite food because they're simple, fresh, and made from quality ingredients. And this was probably the best I've had. I love a good chicken crepe and I was very confused whether I wanted to go with the garlic chicken (pesto) crepe or the chipotle chicken crepe. On one hand, I love a traditional pesto sauce/garlic based chicken crepe which is supposedly the most popular here. On the other hand, I also like a bit of spice and chipotle sauce. The owner resolved my confusion and asked me to go for the garlic chicken one. And I did. And it was incredible. I finished it in no time. Super fresh, lots of cheese, lots of chicken, just the right amount of garlic and pesto sauce. I could easily eat this on repeat. They also have so many vegan/vegetarian options to choose from and that's amazing. My friend is a vegan, and she went for the harvest medley customized with vegan cheese instead of dairy based cheese. She loved it. I tasted a bit of it and thought it was great as well. She couldn't finish her dish though. I came in with a plan of NOT eating desserts (as in sweet crepes!) but I got tempted with the other ones they had on display. Especially the honey cake. When I went to order, the honey cakes on display were gone since the people at the other table just bought them. And there was no more, they had to make more. So I instead went for the Napoleon and it was quite good. Very flaky with the puff pastry of course and just the right amount of sweet definitely, not over the top. It was not vegan so I had to eat the whole dessert and I managed to. The best crepes in the Bay Area and I'll be back here in no time even though I have to come all the way from Mountain View. I had been to this complex before to the Indian restaurant nearby, and they're fairly new I believe because they weren't there when I came the last time a few months ago. Plenty of parking in the complex. Cute space with a simple ambiance inside. Owned by a really welcoming couple. read more

Very healthy options for crêpes, smoothies, and desserts served in a cute, clean space. Staff is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, suggest suggesting popular items and thoroughly reviewing ingredients for those with allergies. Portions were so generous that neither of us could finish our crêpes, so we had plenty left over for lunch the next day, giving us the opportunity to enjoy their great food again! Recommend checking it out and ordering the popular garlic chicken pesto or harvest medley. read more

We stumbled across this spot since we were craving crepes and sweets. I had the napoleon slice and it was divine!! My cousins ordered the savory crepes and they are very generous with their portions here. I loved that they make their food with organic ingredients and offer vegan as well as non-dairy options. There's wifi here so this could be a great spot to have brunch and a morning drink while getting some work done. The owner was absolutely so sweet and welcoming. We could really tell that the food was made with so much care and love. I'd recommend this spot and will definitely come back when I'm in NorCal. If you're craving crepes, come here!!! read more

There's definitely a homey feel at Lucy's Crepes. The food portions were generous and filling. I liked the taste and texture of the crepe itself, too. The salted salmon wasn't as salty as I was expecting, which I liked. The strawberry Nutella crepe was as expected and they did not skimp on the filling here either. The berry punch and mint lemonade were both good, and the strawberry smoothie tasted healthier than most. I've never tried borsch before, but since I'd heard about it in the past, I gave it a try. The flavor was light, but it wasn't bland. I thought it was served with condiments and bread. I realized later, on the menu it says cream and green onion are optional. They didn't ask me about it, though. I'll be back to try some other items like the tea and sweets. read more

A welcome addition to Fremont! The owners are super nice and accommodating even with three very loud and rambunctious toddlers. We ordered many a crepe, including the salmon, garlic chicken, and pizza crepe along with borsh (soup) and a sweet Nutella crepe. All were delicious and HUGE. We had to pack a lot of food to go and I'm excited to eat it later. That's when you know the food is good. In an area wanting for healthy options, they also have smoothies and fresh pressed juice. I mean, we heard the juicer going and it's a monster. They are Jamba Juice without all the additives. Everything is real, and everything is fresh! Hoping they stay around for a while! read more

First time trying syrniki, and I'm officially obsessed! The farmer's cheese filling was so good, and pairing it with the sweet cream made it even better--definitely a must-try. We also ordered the Blini Chicken Mushrooms and Cheese Blini (my parents had those since I don't eat chicken), and they absolutely loved them. The Blini à la Tiramisu was another highlight--if you're a tiramisu fan, you'll love this twist. The ladyfinger has a rich coffee flavor that ties everything together perfectly. The Creamy Mushroom Soup from the daily special menu was the surprise favorite of the meal--silky, flavorful, and so well made. Overall, it was a great experience supporting this small, family-owned Moldovan restaurant serving some Russian and Ukrainian dishes. The place feels very homey, the owners were super kind, and while it's on the pricier side (~$30 per person if you get a main and dessert), the food--especially the desserts--is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend! read more

Lucy The owner's lady is super friendly. I was contemplating between chicken pesto, most popular one, chicken mushroom, new flavor of the month, or smoked salmon and I ended up getting the chicken pesto because that's the most popular one. I also got a mushroom soup that was a special. The layering of the crepes was very good. Inside was not too bad but then it was chicken breast and I always prefer chicken thigh. Also, it will be nice if we can have some sauce over it to make it less dry. The mushroom soup was too runny and I wish it was thicker and has more seasoning taste. I maybe want to try there dessert creeps next time. read more

Heard good things about this restaurant and wanted to give them a try. Had their grilled chicken crepe and it was good-sized and very good. Similar to Frodo Joe's in quality and taste. What I liked more was their chocolate tiramisu dessert crepe. After seeing their dessert display, I am not surprised they can make great tasting desserts. Parking is free and ample. Family casual dining place. They just can't handle large groups. Quiet and laid back. Perfect place for a business lunch meeting.

Great eclectic menu. A good selection of items and fresh ingredients. Hole in the wall place, but it's one that I really enjoyed.

Great customer service. We ordered at the counter and the person helping us gave us recommendations. The proportions for the savory crepe we ordered was huge so she recommended that we get one to share as we also ordered the tiramisu crepe. This was a great option as it allowed us to try a savory and sweet crepe without ordering too much food that we couldn't finish. Both tasted great and would order again! We sat down at a table and she brought out our food. She also shared a couple of freebies such as a strawberry drink and cream puffs as it was their 2nd month open. We weren't expecting anything so that was a nice surprise and it was very sweet of her. There were many seats available and free water at the counter. Very clean as well. The only odd thing that I noticed is that there was a faint sewer/bathroom smell when we walked in. My husband has been to this building before when it was previously a taco place and said it smelled like that all the time. Maybe it's just the location? Not sure! Other than that, it was a great experience and we'll definitely be back! read more

This is a cute little cafe located in the Fremont foodmaxx plaza. The cafe was very clean, had good lighting and air circulation, and the tables were spacious and cutely decorated with real flowers. We came here for brunch on a Sunday, and we were quickly able to grab a table and order at the counter. Between the three of us, we shared a savory Italian crepe and a sweet fruit crepe. Both were large in size, stuffed with fillings, and tasted really good. The service was also excellent here, and the owner (?) kept coming to check up on us and offer us samples of new drinks or desserts that they're experimenting with. Overall I liked this cafe and would highly recommend checking it out. read more
