Simple and effective menu, dishes are garnished and very well prepared. A nice mouth is offered at the entrance of the meal. Nice service. The decoration has nothing extraordinary. Good choice of wine. Up page of the little-thought menus.

The attention to detail is obvious and this is reflected in the food. Classically french, beautifully presented and tastes as good as it looks. It is a small restaurant bijou I think is the word), maybe no more than 25 covers, but the tables are well spaced and offer privacy without loosing atmosphere. You can choose from set menus €30 to €42) or á la carte and an the wine list offers an excellent range at reasonable prices. A great place for both small groups and couples and if you are looking for a romantic evening, then this is the place. You can expect to pay some €40 to €60 per head but I suggest that this is good value for this standard of food. Highly recommended.

After reviewing on Trip Advisor, I decided to book a table for 5 on the Sunday evening. I was delighted they could accommodate, and looked forward to the meal. We weren 't disappointed. Fantastic food, beautifully presented and delicious to eat punctuated by bonus courses to enjoy. Great wine selection to accompany the meal. Service was friendly and attentive, and there was a relaxed atmosphere. We will definitely return next year, now we know where it is (it is not near the main strip which might account for it being slightly less busy than I would have expected for a restaurant of that standard.. or it might be the restaurant is not normally open on a Sunday it was because of the Festival). I would highly recommend. Merci.

The food is of the highest quality and each dish is created with care, attention to detail and inventiveness (I really don't understand one of the previous reviewer's comment). This is excellent food at an extremely reasonable price in unpretentious surroundings.
