    Great autumn menu, a cozy seat at the bar in full view of the bustling kitchen, with a last minute reservation. A little mixup with the food order resulted in a Beef Wellington arriving instead of the oxtail raviole was deftly handled, effectively gifting the beef dish and later bringing the pasta ordered. All was delicious! Staff (even one from the kitchen) was friendly and attentive. Bonne table! Merci à l’équipe.

    The experience was overall good, the personnel kind and attentive. Nevertheless the amount of lobster in my plate was quite small. The plastic mats were a bit cheep considering the ambience and the price of the restaurant, and we were welcomed by a smell wich was not really appealing. Proposition: Ventilate regularly Increase the amount of expensive ingredients

    Beautiful atmosphere, great food, very french menu (which was the point of going) and it didn't disappoint at all. Service was good, and they have menus in french and English. Wine and cigar selection also excellent.

    We went on a Tuesday night. The restaurant is lovely, nice decor, though for some reason all the people were seated in one room. I don't know in general, but that night it was super hot, no ventilation whatsoever. So we felt overheated, overcrowded and in a place like this, it just shouldn't happen. The food was great: we had a steak, spicy tartare: meat was delicious & fresh; mouthwatering lobster ravioli amazing. For desert we had pain perdu with caramel sauce: the best we ever had. Hugo cocktail was ok, too sweet.

    The staff were tremendous and the food a real treat. it was a little loud because it was full but that comes with being a successful restaurant

    The food is always excellent, and remains consistently good. The service was not as good in my last visit. we waited a long time to receive the menus then actually be served and a specific request to replace potatoes with extra vegetables was ignored completely.

    The food was good, the service was very slow, and the place was so noisy that it was hard to conduct any meaningful conversation.

    Food was very good and very nice service. Having people outside smoking next to you is always a disappointment. Some countries already forbidden it completely in restaurants even outside. Maybe it’s time for restaurants here to lead the change regarding this disgusting habit

    Super delicious food and welcoming staff. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. The only thing we could not change our table (which we weren't happy with) because we made a reservation by theFORK

    After waiting a while to be initially served, I have to say the we were both very impressed. The Ravioli was out of this world and although the steaks were small, they were perfectly cooked and the sauce and spinach were Devine. Simple food done really well. Thank you all

    We were welcomed with great service at Le Patio. The team was not just nice, they were AMAZING. The food looked fantastic and tasted equally good. Thank you for hosting us and offering us this nice evening. We will definitely come again !!!

    Probably, it is one of the best cuisine in Geneva! So, congrats! The outfit is "ça va". In general the charming impression of the restaurant could be even stronger with more attention to small & simple things like serving home made bread, some butter or olives...

    The savoury food was good overall, but I was expecting a lot better. Portions were very small. The wine bottles were way too expensive, nothing good for less than chf 6o a bottle. We settled for wine by the glass. The desserts were below average, the paris brest was dry and the cream tasteless. I don't think I will go back.

    This an excellent restaurant. A cosy place with a fantastic atmosphere. Great service and great pleople. The Chef really interested in people’s view. Food was delicious, prepared exactly to our demands and tastes. Highly recommended. You’d better make a reservation as the restaurant tends to be really crowded (another confirmation of the quality).

    I chose this restaurant because it's in the Michelin Suisse guide. Tomato gaspacho was nice, a strong flavour of garlic which I enjoyed. Presentation of the food also good. The downside was that my main, grilled prawns with risotto. The centre of the rice was still hard. And inside the prawns were all uncooked. Service fine, friendly staff.
