High quality dishes in this small restaurant. I had read about the place and it was on our Annecy list. 3 entrees (en route, trout and the comte truffle) then the devilish chocolate, hazelnut dessert. Exceeded our expectations! Just go!

A lovely little spot for lunch, with an extensive local wine menu and a great hand written daily menu. Despite being a short menu, there were plenty of options for any diner, with lots of local specialties and classic dishes. Each dish was very well put together, and very tasty. Would highly recommend and would return if in town!

A small, beautifully authentic, high quality restaurant, where the food and wine was fabulous. Many choices for gluten free as well. The chef has so much skill, so the dishes are packed with flavour and texture. We had Pork, fish and a vegetarian starter and a dessert, all were great. I wish it were my local .

A cute bistro at the beginning of tourist restaurant stripe. The food was excellent . They serve two choices of Entree, Plat and desert for the menu. Many daily specials include duck and foie gras pie. We had pate, pike, Avignon piglet and apple and pear tart. Avignon piglet was pork cooked 3 different way on top of eggplant was very good. Crispy pan fried pike with fennel kumquat salad and grilled fennel was excellent. So the tart was so good, we ate before we took it picture. The server was annoyed we took long time to translate menu with google translation because they didn’t English menus. My husband likes to ask for recommendations of the wine or beer from the server if he doesn’t know the selection the restaurant has. He asked for a dry red wine, the server shrugged his shoulder and my husband to pick. The first glass wine he got was half portion of next French table, 2nd glass portion was a bit bigger. What can we do? We are in France we don’t know French. The server warmed up after while. We will go back because the food was very good and not touristy.

Our first visit to Annecy, we found this place after a hotel owner recommended it! I’ve been a chef for 30 years, and just loved every dish! Carpaccio of beef tongue, quenelle with bisque, suckling pig, and more all beautiful!

This restaurant we chose at random after a long car journey turned out to be the best restaurant we visited on our last trip to France. Manifique

Really excellent food from start to finish. Standard French bistro style service and you can sit right in a very busy walking street if that's your jam.

Lovely restaurant. Prepare to be hit with some french attitude, but if you are able to see past it and take it as part of the experience, you're in for some absolutely lovely local cuisine. Portions were small, so you might want to order an appetizer or dessert. They make three-part menus for selected items.
