My husband and I had lunch there the other day. It was absolutely delicious. It was more like a dinner than lunch though. Multiple courses and nothing casual on the menu. The menu was entirely in French and we struggled through. The waitress spoken English and helped us out. I would absolutely go back again, but probably for dinner not for lunch.

A beautiful meal, we opted for the 38/42 euro set menu. Each course was beautifully presented and in addition we were served amouse bouche and an appertiser. Starters were snails served in a crispy edible shell & perfectly cooked poached eggs in a mushroom & ham sauce. We both opted for the Bourgogne Beef which was so tender & delicious, served with potato. Deserts were Crème Brulee. My husband also had the cheese board. Coffee was served with petit fours Service was professional & attentive. Servers were lovely. Highly recommend.

Le Cheval Noir is superb and we had a wonderful evening, enjoying delicious food from the ‘joie de vivre’ set menu. Several other culinary surprises were given to us along the way, all of which were sublime. The service was impeccable. Highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to come back. Thank you

The young man guided us thru the Wine Menu & helped us choose an excellent bottle. A Pommard! The Food is outstanding. Restaurant design is refreshing.

This is a gem of a restaurant - the frontage gives no hint of how smart the interior and dining terrace are. We had a delightful meal, served by staff who were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. We loved it!

This was our first visit. We thought the choice of food was excellent. Our meal was superb. We had the heritage tomatoes, followed by the monkfish. The choice of cheeses was really good and our dessert with raspberries and strawberries was delicious. We had an amazing bottle of wine which was quite expensive but worth every penny. We would recommend Le Cheval Noir without hesitation. We will be returning.

We can’t say enough good things about Le Cheval Noir. Everything was delicious, you could tell they had cooked the beef bourguignon for 12 hours, it cut like butter with a sauce that we will remember for a long time. We started with burgundy snails and eggs cooked to 65 degrees in a meurette sauce. Both were exceptionally good. The service was great, attentive but not pushy. The restaurant was full but the atmosphere allowed you to have nice quiet conversations.

Our dinner at Le Cheval Noir was one of the most memorable dinners we had in our time in France! From the consistency in quality of the food to the outstanding service and advice regarding wine paring, we could not have asked for more. We cannot recommend this establishment any more highly and will certainly return.

Convenient location, cozy service.I enjoyed the local cuisine of Burgundy.The number of hall staff seemed insufficient, but the staff seemed to be working among themselves.

Food was very tasty. My husband claims food here tastes better than the one we had in a Michelin restaurant in Lyon.
