10/10Great ambience, very friendly staff and delicious food! One suggestion is to add an option to pay tips for the service via card POS-terminal machine. We wanted to add some tips to the bill and didn't have cash on us, so that option would be nice.

10/10My husband and I stumbled upon this restaurant due to the ratings and were certainly not disappointed! The food was incredibly fresh, innovative and farmed locally and brought to table by an imaginative creative chef. The service was impeccable. We had our best dining experience in Geneva here and we had eaten at top restaurants. Highly suggest you try this delightful place

10/10It was a good surprise. It is a very quality restaurant that offers well-balanced dishes with a unique taste. The menu offers 3 max four dishes per type (entrée, plat et dessert), but this is what you shall expect from a restaurant like this. The service was super nice. Highly recommended.

About this restaurant
Une cuisine créative d'ici et d'ailleurs Notre cuisine passionnée et créative aux saveurs d’ici et d’ailleurs, fait la part belle aux produits locaux et de saison. Engagé dans une démarche durable, notre restaurant a ouvert ses portes en mars 2023. L’Ancre est un établissement d’application géré par les Etablissement Publics pour l’Intégration – EPI. Au sein du restaurant se conjuguent transmission des savoir-faire, intégration socio-professionnelle et exigence culinaire. Les légumes cuisinés proviennent des Jardins de la Combe faisant partie des ateliers d’horticulture des EPI. Le chef fait aussi appel à l’Union Maraichère de Genève et pour les légumes biologiques, aux jardins de Trajets. Idéalement situé à deux pas de la gare Cornavin, face à l’arrêt du tram « Môle », l’Ancre propose à ses clients du lundi au vendredi une pause de midi aux allures de bistronomie à de tout petits prix. Sa salle spacieuse peut être configurée pour des lunchs accueillant de nombreux convives ou des tables plus intimes. La carte concoctée par le chef Domingos Ribeiro suit naturellement le fils des saisons. Issu de la belle gastronomie genevoise Domingos décline ses inspirations autour de saveurs surprenantes et recherchées, n’hésitant pas à revisiter les plats les plus traditionnels. Pour accompagner ceux-ci, la carte des vins se pare de jaune et rouge puisque notre cave est 100% genevoise. La limonade, le jus de pommes et les infusions sont GRTA et le café bien que provenant de contrées lointaines est bio et issu du commerce équitable. La bio de notre chef D’origine portugaise, ayant grandi à Genève, Domingos a débuté en gastronomie en 1994 pour obtenir la place de 2ème meilleur apprenti cuisinier de Suisse. A peine 3 ans plus tard, à 22 ans seulement, il se classe 3ème en final Suisse du concours Taittinger (prix culinaire international). Le chemin gastronomique de Domingos est ensuite jalonné d’établissements renommés genevois et a notamment été marqué par 7 années au Café de la Place (Gault & Millau 15 points = 3 toques). Formateur d’apprenti-es et expert aux examens de l’école professionnelle, Domingos déploie à présent son talent au restaurant L’ANCRE pour le plaisir des gourmets de midi et des apprenants qu’il accompagne.
