A truly delightful dinner where every dish was marvelous -- flavorful, beautifully presented, and expertly prepared. We dined al fresco, seating comfortably outside☀️And the service? Absolutely exceptional—warm, attentive, and seamless from start to finish! One of our unforgettable dinner for sure ❣️🍷

Just landed after a red eye from Miami, now in Montpelier. Springtime in France! This place is amazing, exactly what I wanted for my first meal back in the land of awesomeness. The asparagus starter was exquisite, really unbelievable series of flavors using asparagus as a base. Duck and fish dishes were also great as well as the deconstructed cheese cake and cheese platter, select 4 of your favorites from a huge cheese board selection!

A really nice place, definitely value for money. Visited two times a couple a year ago and revisited this week still really great food and service. A Fantastic tomato salad 🍅 ♥️♥️♥️ innovative and super delicious 😋 and a super nice cheese serving- just love this place 🥰

Very old school French cooking. The photos on Google looked good but some of them were years old and the food has changed a lot since then. I didn't love it, and don't think I would return.

Went last weekend for a lunch. Lovely place with excellent food. The cook is in control of the flavours and he uses them very well. We had tomato gazpacho with crab and avocado - nice and fresh. Nice well cooked Lotte with a tasty bisque. The excellent starter made me forgot to take a picture of the main. The peach/basil/pistachio based dessert ... a dish from heaven. Congrats to who have made that one!

A brilliant restaurant with delicious food and service. I have been several times, and it’s always amazing! Keep up the good work!

We’ve been here several times and each time we can’t wait to get back. We had a fabulous lunch which just confirmed that this is one of the best restaurants in Montpellier.

We had been recommended this small restaurant and it did not disappoint - quite the opposite! It is more expensive than many of the restaurants around, but there is a good reason for that: the menu is small, but full of dishes that are very different to your average restaurant, and the quality of the food that arrived was absolutely first class - makes you wonder why it doesn’t have a Michelin star. I especially liked the starter of prawn and Guinea fowl in a lobster bisque: may sound odd (and that simplistic description does not do it justice), but it really worked. They also have an extensive wine list with something for everyone from all over France, with plenty of local wines. The service was friendly, helpful, and relaxed, and the atmosphere convivial to taking time to enjoy the meal at your own pace, with tables with more space around them than you normally find even in some of the better restaurants around. In summary, fantastic: best meal we have had in a long time.

True, historical landmark in the restaurant landscape of Montpellier, this restaurant is really good. In a small street off one of the main squares in the city, it is quiet and elegant, yet completely central. In a very classy setting, the taste is also present, and each dish is enjoyable. The wine selection is also quite nice. Recommended for sure!
