Chez Ernest is described as an incredible, eclectic space that feels like a museum of curiosities, with stunning decoration, a warm, lively ambiance, and a constant flow of events from swinging dance nights and improv shows to live music and comedy that keep the vibe upbeat well into the evening. The drinks scene receives high praise, featuring signature cocktails such as espresso martinis, a strong absinthe selection, and inventive small plates, while the decor and staff are repeatedly called charming and attentive, making it easy to linger and socialize. Reviews note a few drawbacks, including a small food menu with tartines that are tasty but portions and value can be hit-or-miss, occasional service inconsistencies, and isolated hygiene concerns; several voices mention limited beer options and some attempts to favor local products that feel limiting. Nevertheless, the overall impression is that the venue offers a unique, colorful, and energetic experience not easily found elsewhere, ideal for a fun night out, dancing, or a memorable evening with friends.
