11 Cannes Movies With Iconic Food Moments — Paired with MICHELIN Guide Restaurants

"A mere truffle’s toss from the film’s cobbled streets, this 17th-century townhouse restaurant is perched above the Armançon River, offering views so romantic they feel scripted. But the real revelation is in the kitchen. Chef Martin Vial’s fresh, vibrant dishes — like smoked trout kissed with vine shoots and beetroot baked in a salt crust — are anything but nostalgic. He sources from local farmers across Auxois and Burgundy, crafting plates that feel both rooted and revelatory. It’s the sort of place Vianne might’ve gone after closing up her shop, trading truffles for trout and a view to stir the soul." - Rooksana Hossenally

"This exquisite 17C mansion, whose conservatory and large terrace command a matchless view over the town’s ramparts and the River Armançon, enjoys a premium location in this picture postcard medieval town. The town and its walls may be rich in heritage, but the incisive, fresh cuisine of chef Martin is light years from old school, as the brook trout smoked over vine shoots and beetroot in a salt crust demonstrates. The chef faithfully keeps pace with the seasons, working with farmers from Auxois and Burgundy." - Michelin Inspector

One of the best restaurants in Semur and this region of France! Everything is local, done with care and excellent service with with lots of surprises. The view is also stunning if the weather permits I recommend eating on the terrace. Thank you to the incredible staff.

Delicious restaurant. The dishes were all perfect. It made me think of my recent trip to Japan. The meat was a paleron, but tasted like a good wagyu from Kobe. The cheese-based dessert I got was the best dessert I’ve had in a really long time. I would guess this restaurant is worthy of a Michelin star.

It has a very nice old town sunset view and needless to say, the food was also excellent. I would be happier if the prices were a little bit lower. Anyway, I enjoyed very much.

Hands down my favourite Restaurant on Earth ! 🤍 Love the most creative dishes with fresh regional Ingredients , the great wine and the most authentic and caring Staff. The view outside is beautiful, the Inside feels like a comfy Livingroom you don’t want to leave. Martin and Laura always makes you feel welcome to stay forever. Martin makes outstanding food, never seen so creative and loved arrangements of food. And Laura is such a sweetheart and greatest Host knowing exactly how to take care of people. The Rest of the staff is just as awesome as them. Love coming to Semur only for spending time at the Fontainotte 🤍

We had an amazing evening. We were lucky the weather was good enough to sit outside, meaning we had a stunning view over the medieval town. The food was very good, clearly cooked with an eye for detail and amazing taste combinations. Price quality wise probably the best I’ve ever had. The service was also great, casual but very attentive and friendly, they even took notice of my girlfriends birthday by bringing a small birthday cake and singing for her. Staff also speaks English. I would highly recommend this place.

Just the perfect combination of food, friendly service and setting for a beautiful lunch at Semur-en-Auxois. We were served an array of amuse bouche and each were delicious in its own way. Our main courses were also fantastic. I also appreciate that they arranged for the sun to be out and just the right temperature so we can dine outside at the patio and enjoy the incredible view. Look no further for a great experience in Semur-en-Auxois.

Some of the best food we’ve had in France. A taste experience like no other. Too cold to sit outside but on a warm day this is the place to be. However indoors is magical too.

If you are travelling across Burgundy and looking for a unique food experience, this is the place to be!! Exquisite cuisine 🧑‍🍳, professional and passionate staff, a wonderful panoramic view from the terrace… what more you can ask for? Do not hesitate to ask for the ‘plat du jour’, always a fine surprise.. and desserts, are just a pathway to paradise!

Most beautiful location ever overlooking the river. I requested medium cooked beef but received well done. Fantastic foie gras.

The location of the restaurant is stunning. It overlooks the river valley so if you can snag an outdoor seat on a nice summer or fall evening, I would recommend it. Positives: The restaurant is very responsive via email. It has a very interesting menu and the presentation of all of the dishes. The bread and the amuses bouches were quite tasty. Negatives: My husband was served woefully undercooked chicken. It was comparatively expensive to the wonderful dinner that we had at Le Pari des Gourmets.

Rude service. Overpriced and mediocre food. Gave it several chances, and each time was a disappointment. Les Minimes is the better, reliable choice in Semur for quality, house made regional specialties.
