Saturday 8pm booking post COVID. they were obviously with brisk business.
now. menu is very specialized on grilled meat (I cannot comment on the Saturday Couscous).
the restaurant by itself is OK; the terrace is kind of OKish, nothing special but frankly this goes with...the location. i do not think they claim to be stylish restaurant.
In the situation, we got the snails. snail is a bit more tricky that it may be (i am French, and i love snail): here the animals were overcooked mushy and the garlic butter was strange. and it took 30mn to come.
another 30mn after removing the snails came the steak and the duck. I had ordered my cooking rare: rare it certainly was, trending raw which is luckily not really a problem with me - and the duck meat was good. but it was just so damn cold, so much so that the butter on it was not melting. my friend's tenderloin was also cold... considering the fries were hot, i guess comes from the meat being cooked and hitting a bottleneck on the fries. But we got two wasted dishes 1h30 after ordering.
wine list is OK, a bit expensive. the 2006 Chateauneuf was very good for me but the bottle was maderized. it was interesting to see my friend proofing the wine, not looking super excited, and the waiter just pouring saying "I am sure it is perfect". i had a good wine because i like the maderized taste which is not normally appreciated by wine connoisseurs. my friend was not enthralled.More
