The lunch menu in this restaurant was just 12€80 and included a buffet of charcuterie and salads to start with, followed by either a pork chop or turkey with a mushroom sauce and a choice between french beans or a gratin of pasta, we had three desserts to choose from. Very simple, but absolutely nothing to complain about. Service was pleasant and efficient.

The starters came in plastic boxes straight from the fridge and were passable, the second course was pleasant, but the main course and desert were tasteless ...the desert was also cold and had come from the fridge. All in all not worth the money.

We were disappointed. Expensive menu compared to the product offered. More than average service. Lack of experience. Too bad because the location is great. read more We were disappointed.

Very kindly welcomed by the landlady who took us to our spacious, clean and well-equipped room (newly renovated! . We went down for dinner. The menu offered included 3 starters, 3 main courses and 3 desserts to choose from. After some advice from the waiter, very pleasant and friendly, knowing his dishes well, we placed our order. And what a surprise it was a dinner full of flavors, an explosion in the mouth which exalted the right mix of spices and a Limousin meat cooked to perfection accompanied by small vegetables which went well with this beautiful piece of meat!!. All the praised products were fresh and cooked by the Chef
