Nous avons passé un très bon moment ici ! La nourriture est magnifique ! C’est aussi délicieux. Le personnel est très poli, beau et sympathique.

Quite simply the worst experience of a Michelin-starred restaurant we have had. Despite well-executed cuisine, the service clearly does not deserve the Michelin star awarded to it. Not to mention the scandalous treatment we suffered due to the fact that we were with several children (table changed in a hurry, inappropriate remark from the maître d' at the start of the service, chef who came to see all the tables in the restaurant except voluntarily ours). It's a shame. The setting is beautiful and the cuisine is well done (despite the ridiculous children's portions, and the additional charge for some pasta so that they can eat their fill). Go your way.

Restaurant with a very chic setting with a kitchen opening onto the dining room for the most beautiful effect. Prices are high, especially for drinks and anything not listed on the menu. Unfortunately, there are major weaknesses, in particular the quantities served which are frankly ridiculous. As there are no desserts, we resort to dry bread bought at the local bakery. Too bad the cuisine is rather pleasant (typical bistronomic with Asian influences), but we leave hungry and the bill appears very steep for the service. I'm not even talking about the children's menu charged at 25 euros (not mentioned when ordering and not on the menu) for 20g of salmon (never seen such a small portion of road in my life) with some pasta and a quenelle of ice cream (1/ 3 ball). The metit also left hungry! Very below what you usually find in starred. Disappointment

Perfect from A to Z and even the price on the lunch menu!! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
