Tout Un Monde - Grandvaux

We invited our friends for dinner at this restaurant because the reviews were very good. On a 4-course menu, the fish and game were tasty and well presented, however the starter, a venison terrine really not great tasting, accompanied by a scoop of ice cream, served in the form of a sandwich on a very hard piece of bread to cut. At dessert time, we were served a very heavy chocolate cake and frankly not good, the coffees were accompanied by a brownie of the same type as the dessert, heavy and not appreciated by anyone. Since it was a surprise menu, we trusted the sommelier to choose the wines to match the dishes, a failed bet, the wines offered did not enchant us. Regarding the service, it was not up to par, impersonal and not very professional. When I asked if I could order an infusion/herbal tea, the person replied that she didn't think it was possible, that she would find out. Then she came back and offered me either a mint tea or a verbena, which satisfied me. In summary, we felt sorry for our friends at the restaurant, fortunately the magnificent view from the terrace partially rewarded the trip.

Three good reasons to come and eat on this (magnificent) terrace: 1) The view of the vineyards 2) The view of Lake Geneva 3) The view of the Alps. I’m still looking for the fourth… And my words to explain it in nuance and without sounding like a foul-mouthed gastro-sniper. But how can we evoke the tepid disappointment of having eaten very expensively, but not really had a good meal, other than by remembering this limp frustration which can follow a banal orgasm for which we had invested a lot? It's difficult to ignore, however, the apparent sympathy of the welcome, even if we are surprised by a bistro service in this appearance of luxury. It's difficult not to recognize the quality of the ingredients and not to imagine the sweat in the kitchen, even if the taste buds find it difficult to regale with the eyes which feast on the landscape... Like the reality of the plate with the ostentation of the description of the menu (full of puns that only happen at the bar, with friends after a few drinks). But hey, there are enough laudatory comments above mine (and certainly later below) for me not to feel too guilty about expressing an opinion (constructive, yes) which, in addition to not being than mine, concerns only two dishes tasted “Vitelo férato Lémanique”, “Grilled sea bream fillet and clams”. Oh yes ! I almost forgot, the Chardonnay was delicious.

Incredible, always a treat!! The view is incredible. The menu is exceptional, the service is more than perfect. Nothing to complain about, it’s great class! I recommend a thousand times this establishment which has managed to stand out with perfect value for money! Thank you and keep it up.

A small classic menu which was absolute wonderful. Excellent wine! Great service; unbelievable views!

Overall disappointed, expected much higher quality of food and execution: blinis were overcooked, trout tartare was tasteless, didn’t have real bread instead offered flutes vaudoises style stale product. The service was okayish, missed a few requests or were late with wine pairing for meals. Wines and the view were excellent though! I am not coming back.
