    6.5/10

    Food was good. most of the staff taking care of us was very friendly. The head server was very rude and obnoxious. Smirking when questions were asked with rolling eyes. Aggressively putting down the butter/utensils, etc. during the whole meal. Acting like he had no time to even take our order or wait on us. I got to the point that after we paid and tipped, I asked him if we had offended him somehow because he was that rude.

    We ordered the purple artichoke heart salad and had to send it back because it was so disgusting. It was hard and tasted rancid like old nuts. The service was really bad. We had to ask for everything, such as another glass of wine and more of the water we had bought and more bread. It was so expensive for the service we received. The veal was good but not the best I’ve ever had. I always tip but this time I didn’t because I actually really couldn’t believe how bad the service was in a restaurant such as this. Choose a different restaurant with better service and higher quality food. You’re wasting your money if you go here.

    The seafood and the pumpkin soup were tasty. The steak was way over cooked and completely dry. I would expect at that price for everything to come out perfectly.

    The ambiance is great, the plates are perfect size, not huge portions, wine quite expensive but worthy. The service was perfect and the servers were friendly and attentive

    A fantastic experience. Lovely, attentive service from the moment we entered the restaurant. Inviting and cozy space. And the food was amazing - from the artichoke starter to the delicious desserts... With perfectly cooked sea bass and beef filet in between. Would highly recommend.

    The pasta wasn’t cooked well and it was stuck together, moreover there were some pieces of lobster shell that should have been taken out

    We went there to celebrate our Anniversary and we expect to have a good quality food and most of the food didn't let us down. The amberjack fish sashimi with mango and parmigiana for entree was really good. the steak w sauce was good except the side dish that goes with it which is the spinach it lacks taste, the potato gratin was too dry and not very tasty in our opinion. The veal with artichokes mashed potatoes and homemade french fries was very delicious and tender. For the dessert we both had cheesecake and it was so so not that bad but not that good because we felt that it lacks taste and very heavy and I am not sure caramel is a good combination for me. For the service and ambiance I would say it is a 10 everyone was really friendly , attentitive and smiling.

    This restaurant offers a nice atmosphere with a good service, but with a very average food, I ordered filets de perches, and I got a full plate of french fries with very few filets. The price of this dish was closer to the filets than to the fries!!!

    the service was polite but a little too hurried, for a fine dining place. the quality of food was very ordinary and i had to send one dish back and ask for another

    I found this restaurant on the Michelin website, however, we were quite disappointed. The service was less than that. We has to ask for the wine list, and the bread, and the service was slow. The food was ok, but I expected much more. The experience left us feeling disappointed.

    Staff was so nice since we arrived, they didn’t hesitate recommending and help us choosing correctly the quantity. Had the avocado and crab as starter, we loved it. Also the sea bass we shared was absolutely perfectly cooked and tasted so fresh. We highly recommend this restaurant. Will visit again asap we come back to Geneva for sure.

    Great experience overall, had a 3 course meal, with an appetizer of fois gras that were delicious with some toast. Then the noisette de chevreuil which was absolutely delicious and splendidly cooked, not overpowering the flavor of the venison and very tender. And finally a dessert which was really good too. The service was very welcoming and took care of us without being imposing. Really good location next to the lake and the décor is very cozy and warming.

    A nice place to have a fancy dinner. We really enjoyed the quiet atmosphere. Waiters are lovely and helpful. It's definitely a place to visit if you love French gastronomy at its best.

    The burrata was lacklustre in flavour. The salad dressing on the burger plate was way too acidic. The wine was nice.

    We were a little disappointed to find recent changes like the disappearances of the "menu du marché" and of the mignardises that used to be served with the after dinner tea. At least the sommelier and (new) maître d'hôtel still are the same as is the ambiance and the food quality, although it seemed a little more rushed than usual. Still a very good table that we highly recommend!

    Attentive service without being overbearing, delightful menu choices. The lemon meringue tart dessert is the best I’ve ever had, and I’ve had many. Cosy. The hotel is a little gem as well.

    We had a wonderful meal with excellent service except for a person sitting at a table near us who talked very loudly all the time. In a restaurant which is so intimate and cozy, one would expect the guests to be considerate of each other. It made our anniversary dinner a little forced as we were having to talk loudly just to hear ourselves!

    Some or the worst food I’ve had in a while. An artichoke salad was like eating wood chips. Fish that had no flavor and drowned in oil.

    All was ok more or less, but the waiters could just make an effort for a little smile ! They looked as if they were bothered and not very friendly in their manners (except the lady who served us bread), though very polite and formal, in a very dry sense!

    Top level service and relaxing comfortable atmosphere on the terrace. I love this restaurant for its large choice of salads. Offered as starter or main portions, I go for the carpaccio of fennel every time. So good.
