Overall, reviews describe La Taverne de Noël as a magical, heavily decorated Christmas setting that draws crowds for photos and vibes, but the experience is very uneven. The decor and festive atmosphere get top marks for being cozy and instagrammable, with enchanting details and holiday music that some reviews later note not always present.

Drinks are praised by some for being tasty and atmospheric, including hot chocolate with marshmallows and a range of seasonal cocktails, yet others find them overpriced, underwhelming, or too sweet or cold. The food ranges from surprisingly delicious pizzas and desserts to items described as mediocre or reheated, with some menu items unavailable at times. Overall, La Taverne de Noël offers a undeniably festive and photogenic experience that many visitors enjoy with friends and family, but timing, crowd management, and inconsistent quality mean it may disappoint those seeking a reliable, high quality meal.View restaurant profile

Overall, HUQQA LOUNGE is described as a relaxed lounge with strong shisha and a pleasant vibe, with several reviews praising attentive and friendly service and items like wings and shish taouk as solid choices, though portions can feel a bit small. Some experiences note clean and stylish ambiance with a DJ, while others point to cleanliness issues, inconsistent service, and staff who seemed distracted or more focused on shisha at the bar than on tables. The crowd vibe and atmosphere range from upbeat and sociable to off putting for some, and there are mentions of price value as satisfactory in places but not universally. In short, the shisha and general ambiance receive praise, service can be standout when attentive, but cleanliness, consistency and crowd dynamics influence whether guests would return.View restaurant profile

Overall, Flâneur Bar Lounge is described as a stylish, minimalist space with friendly, accommodating staff and visually striking dishes. The concept shines in presentation such as the soup of the day, but portions are often small and prices can feel high. Some items miss the mark, including an overcooked burger, while the Italian beef tartare is only okay. French fries are a highlight and drinks are generally good, though shots are sometimes not filled to the top. After finding it when other spots were closed, guests noted a welcoming vibe and appreciated the French selections, even if signature cocktails were missed. The tuna tartare is delicious but mushrooms are not for everyone. It is viewed as a calm hangout with a knowledgeable bartender, and breakfast and a mocha coffee are praised as standout items.View restaurant profile
