The food is very good, in particular when you love foie gras and sweet bread. Order a Vouvray white wine and you will be very happy. Highly recommended!

I had scallops and prawns as entree, steak as main, and poached pear as dessert. The taste is spot-on and the vibe is great. My friends and I spent a great time there. Being four Asians who don't only speak French like Bonjour/ Merci, the waiter is kind and friendly in explaining the dishes to us (with patience)! The most amazing thing is when we needed help to find our way back, they helped us to call taxi (which unfortunately turned out to be very hard to find one). However, we are very grateful for their kindness and help when we need those the most (as we were so lost in this beautiful city)! Amazing place- recommended!

We had a train to catch the evening that we dined there and the Waitress and Chef made sure that our dishes arrived promptly so that we could enjoy our meal despite our time constraint. The Chef even went as far as checking in with us to make sure we were enjoying our meal. And speaking of our meal our steak au poivre was perfectly cooked and the Chef focuses on using fresh local ingredients as well as serving locally produced wine. The menu was an excellent value considering the number of choices available and we will definitely visit again when in the area.

We take pleasure in coming to the reserve to taste good wines accompanied by a board of charcuterie and/or good quality cheeses. Their home tapnade trio is extra, cocktails and beers are top. We love it! The team is always great and good advice. It's a pleasure to come back! See you.
