Food was okay, portions not too big, so not very filling even if you have a starter, main and desert. It used to be better before. Prices are on the high side, even with a fork discount, you still end up paying about 55-65chf per person , especially as a few of the starters or mains, and deserts aren’t included in the discount

The food was really good for a very decent price as we had 50% promo. Services was great but it was just a pity we had to ask 3 times for the bill and wait almost 30 minutes as it left a bitter taste to an, till then, very good experience.
