Great food but poulpe and veggies were soaking in oil. Had to ask to change plate. But food taste was excellent. A group of people very loud inside as it was raining. But overall very nice. I will go back.

Wanted to discover a new restaurant with the Fork but unfortunately it was not the right decision. Only a few meals are part of the « discounted » menu and nothing incredible.

Bistro du Fer à Cheval • Owner

Chère Corinne, . Nous sommes navrés que votre expérience n’ait pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes — peut-être un jour un peu gris, qui sait ? 😉 Pour information, le menu « avec réduction » est clairement affiché sur The Fork avant la réservation. Il suffit de le consulter… comme la plupart de nos clients satisfaits l’ont fait. Quant à notre terrasse, c’est l’une des plus agréables de la ville : calme, verdoyante, idéale pour se détendre et profiter d’une cuisine maison. Les nombreux commentaires positifs en témoignent — même certains restaurants étoilés n’offrent pas ce cadre. Mais bon, on ne peut pas plaire à tout le monde, surtout les jours où rien ne semble incroyable 😌 Revenez quand vous serez d’humeur à savourer, on vous accueillera avec le sourire ! Cordialement, L’équipe du Bistro du Fer à Cheval

Service was friendly but inconsistent we got our last wine order after asking twice and after having finished our last dish. Website menu not up to date.

The atmosphere was great, the food was good. A little problem with not being able to get pasta instead of fries in the kids menu but other than that a very nice place and great for kids who can see the horses.

Second visit, very good meal, cosy warm stove, this time we were the only guests, Quite expensive but good food, the Fork discount makes it a better deal. Worth discovering.

I will never come again either recommend this to anyone. To start with, we wait 20 mins before being served. Menu was not updated - if it is an old menu, tell us which one is no longer available. But the waiter prefer to talk about menus that we dont really interested and encouraging us to order things we do not prefer. We ordered 5 main dishes and were surprised with the quantity. Absolutely overpriced for that quantity and we left still feeling hungry. I have been to many restaurants in Geneve, and honestly this one is the smallest and ridiculous size of a dish I have ever seen. Some menu were written "with toast and fries" and it came with 2 pieces of tiny toasts without any fries, and perhaps 3 spoons of the main menu. Similar with their pork dish, it came our not a whole piece of porc, but a cut into pieces porc - perhaps about 6 pieces. Poke bowl was disappointing. Simply rice with oil, and a few pieces of salmon. What a joke.

Title: A Hidden Gem Worth Discovering - Bistro du Fer à Cheval Navigating our way to Bistro du Fer à Cheval, formerly known as Manège de la Pallanterie, was a tiny adventure in itself. The signage still references the old name, which might initially confuse a newcomer. But here’s a tip: make a turn once you spot the previous name, and a parking lot will present itself. A gate stands ahead - venture through, and you’ll be welcomed by the sight of the charming restaurant. Our culinary journey at Bistro du Fer à Cheval was marked by tantalizing flavors, each more exquisite than the last. My husband savored the Tagliata de faux filet de bœuf grillé au beurre du manège, cooked to perfection, the beef melting in his mouth. My daughter delighted in her spaghetti carbonara, a classic done right, the creamy sauce balancing the hearty bacon beautifully. I treated myself to Le fameux cheeseburger frites, the juicy beef patty encased in a toasted bun, accompanied by crispy, golden fries - simply delectable. The value for money is unbeatable. High quality, fresh ingredients used in sophisticated recipes that hit all the right notes, without burning a hole in your wallet. The portions were generous, leaving us satisfied and content. The ambiance of Bistro du Fer à Cheval enhanced our dining experience manifold. Its comfortable elegance, the welcoming glow of the lights, and the soft chatter around us created a warm and cozy atmosphere, perfect for a family dinner. What truly made our visit memorable was the exceptional customer service. The staff catered to our needs with a genuine warmth and professionalism that made us feel cherished. They were attentive, well-versed with the menu, and made sure our dining experience was seamless and enjoyable. Our visit to Bistro du Fer à Cheval was a delightful journey of culinary excellence, a testament to the mastery of French cuisine. The slight initial navigation challenge pales in comparison to the memorable dining experience waiting on the other side of the gate. Definitely a place to visit with family for a lovely dining experience!
