Reviews
We had the monthly menu and were not disappointed. The presentation was beautiful, but there was nothing overly fussy. Other menus seemed to have different plates for the same dishes (assuming that was to accommodate a larger serving as it looked to be from the lunch menu), but when you are paying more for the menu it would be nice to have the better presentation. It was for this reason I’m glad we did not do the tasting menu. The food was really beautiful otherwise, so can’t take a star off.
The service was immaculate. No request was refused. The food came out quickly and there was no problem when we requested a small break between courses. Waiters knew the menu and the sommilier was able to assist in a suitable wine to match the menu.
Music was played softly in the background, but because of where we were seated next to the service area, we felt a little exposed at the start. We were the only ones sitting in the restaurant, and while it is great to receive service even before you realise you need it, it was a little awkward having the wait staff standing about 5 metres away watching while we ate. That is the only reason for the removal of a star. Perhaps a way to fix that could be to place the first people to arrive away from the service area.
Will definitely be back as we absolutely love this place xx
I only had their lunch menu, so probably not what you’d get for the whole tasting menu.
I had a salmon with beef soup that was really pretty boring. Then a fish (a bit salty) with celery risotto (pretty good) and to finish the cheese was just average for this type of restaurant.
The wine list is good but classic in every way. Very nice Calvados list by the glass.
However..
** The one thing I did not appreciate is that the waitress smelled really bad of cigarettes. I don’t this is very appropriate for a restaurant like this. However the restaurant itself, considering the food and service, deserves 5 stars. I would recommend for the manager to review some of the expectations with the staff because this could really be tainting to such a great restaurant and that would be an absolute shame.
This was our first time here and will definitely try to come back. My partner was happy and so was I.
I know that we might not take Michelin rating to be anything against them, but regarding a regular restaurant the service here was still kinda off.
First of all, we were a table of 6. Regardless of our ethnicity, we got constantly confused. They first asked us what we would like to order, menu and wine, WITHOUT giving us the menu. I am not sure if this is how Michelin restaurants works that you r supposed to know the dishes by heart, but based on my 10 last experiences with different Michelin restaurants in Lyon and Paris, this is not. Then, we each ordered a menu, and ordered a bottle of wine.
The funny thing again, they kept forgetting to refill the white wine for one of our friend sitting on the very inside of the table (okay maybe it’s easy to ignore), BUT kept refilling it for another friend, whom he declared from the beginning, and said it several times again later on, that he doesn’t drink any alcohol.
The dishes were wonderful, and we did enjoy the food, however left with a mixed feeling of Not welcomed and confusion. As to a Michelin-starred restaurant, and it’s a 2-starred one, I do have higher expectation for their service besides the food. :’).
