Excellente soirée en compagnie de mes copines. Nous avons toutes été satisfaites de nos repas. Très bon rapport qualité-prix. Ambiance conviviale, magnifique terrasse! Service courtois & efficace!
Ordered the Octopus appetizer. The restaurant owner provided a second serving after I mentioned that it was not tender. The second serving was perfect. I was impressed by the owner’s reaction.
I ordered the Sweetbread with Alsatian Sauerkraut for the main dish. Dessert was a goat cheesecake with raspberry coulis. Everything was perfect. The owner is all class!
L'ambiance est super & le service est bon. Par contre, la nourriture est décevante. La pieuvre était bonne, mais aucun sel. Les champignons poêlés n'étaient pas bons. Il y avait un goût de romarin tellement intense que l'on goûtait à peine le goût du champignon. C'était unidimensionnel. Le tartare de poisson 🐟 était très ordinaire & l'agneau était trop cuit & très gras. J'ai passé une belle soirée, mais ce n'était pas à cause de la nourriture.
So, here's what I think - the beef tartare was a bit too chewy for my liking, & the pieces were on the larger side. Even though I typically enjoy beef tartare. The egg was a nice touch to the plater, I must say. The mushroom dish was a bit disappointing, I have to admit. The main plate - the Riz de Veau was downright amazing! I did appreciate the great service & the overall nice vibe.
Le dessert fromage chèvre framboises mériterait d'être plus léger ,un peu trop compact à mon goût.je le verrais plus comme une mousse qui se marierait bien avec les framboises . La quantité de poissons était un peu juste , soyez plus généreux en légumes. Très bonne cuisine
OMG. La Prunelle of My Stomach. Trop trop bon. The oysters PERFECT I SAY Les Champignons Wow. Mon Steak . Les patates EVERY DAY PLEASE. Crème Brûlée Oh la la. The amazing Waitstaff got us a table. & we forced them to celebrate some Peeps from Vermont they brought them some ice cream & candles. Love your mouth go there & IT IS A BYOB. AMAZING �😍
