Une expérience incroyable ! ✨ Que ce soit au niveau culinaire ou du service, tout était parfait. Les plats sont non seulement magnifiques visuellement mais aussi délicieux. Un vrai régal du début à la fin ! Le passage de Yoann en fin de repas a été un vrai plus, un geste chaleureux et très apprécié. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir ! 🍴👏

Excellente entrée et excellent dessert, le poisson par contre un peu trop cuit et des pommes dauphines sans intérêt. Pour être franc, je m'attendais a un niveau de cuisine plus haut vu les prix. Très bon accueil et service. Entrée plat dessert avec 2 verres de vins et 2 cafés 290 CHF...

Could give a 4.5 but the price tag is too high compared to Philippe or Lipp. It’s more of a 5 star hotel and for thar I except real linen table sets.
