Unfortunately quite disappointing. Obviously this restaurant is counting on it’s view and past reputation. I’ve known this place for over 50 years so was surprised that the quality of food is below standards particularly considering the price for a relatively simple meal for two. The service was polite but unorganized. It’s a pity, we were planning a large family reunion here but this experience has forced us to change our minds. Hopefully those in charge will wake up & reassess their performance.

Interesting menu, good food and attentive service, but in a space lacking any charm.

Excellent quality and taste of meals! Well presented, fresh ingredients, tasty. A suggestion to include a small biscuit/sweet/choc with the bill/coffee.

Good food in a lovely location with a friendly staff. Think of it as a classier version of Chez Ma Cuisine and add fish. A great casual dinner choice in Cologny.

Our favourite place for a casual lunch/dinner near our home. :-) Friendly and attentive waiter, good food, reasonably priced for Geneva standard. Nothing to complain.

Outside terrace setting is perfect on a warm evening. Friendly service. I like the limited and specialized menu. Salad sauce could be more flavourful. Chicken is good but a bit dry inside. Chips flavoured with rosemary is amazing! Fresh and quality food with good sized portions. Quite pricey! Therefore some small details could make a difference, such as a chocolate with the bill.
