Too bad not to treat his clients equitably.

The kitchen is always of quality and reflects a safe value (specially for desserts always exquisite!) the reception is pro but the service leaves to be desired: server too familiar and disinvolte.

We found him completely disoriented and dehydrated in front of this restaurant. They didn't hesitate to help us, giving us water, a bottle of something, and sugar free of charge, and even came back to check on us and ask if we needed anything while waiting for the ambulance. Unfortunately, I haven't eaten there yet, but it looks delicious, and it's made me want to go, if only to return the favor. A thousand thanks again for this kindness!

Now everything has changed, and for the better. The decor has been completely renovated with great taste, and there's a lovely terrace just waiting for warmer weather. The service is attentive and responsive, and finally… the menu! We tried several dishes, and everything was excellent. A special mention goes to the waffle for dessert.
