"Trained in star Swiss, French (and even Australian) establishments, chef Laurent Cherchi is a stalwart champion of the environment. He offers two menus, one of which is lacto-ovo-vegetarian, while the other is all-out vegan (without animal ingredients) – which is nothing if not rare in the universe of French star-rated establishments. All his produce is rigorously sourced locally, from the Cévennes to the Mediterranean (beef from Aubrac, saltbush lamb from Camargue, tomme cheese from Larzac) and the front-of-house team is more than well-versed in the ins and outs of each ingredient’s provenance. Each dish has been endlessly pondered, puzzled over and tweaked, to allow the chef’s impeccable technique (fermentation, extraction) and knife-edged accuracy to showcase the stars of the show: the veggies. Three dining rooms, which sport a stripped back vibe, and the tableware are all made to measure by local artisans." - Michelin Inspector

This was a bit of a mixed experience. The good is that the savory dishes met and exceeded our expectations. They were delicious. Unfortunately the sweet courses were just okay. It would have been great to have consistency over all the courses. The bad is that there was too much extraneous time between courses. While I appreciate the time to digest there was no good reason for the half hour wait between the lobster course and the pigeon course. The service started out great but as time went on the level of service dropped. The water service was mixed up between us and the neighboring table and we were given someone else’s bill at check out (a mistake we caught). We also had to pour our own water and champagne towards the end of the meal. Michelin star service was also missing when we got up to use the bathroom. Our napkins were not refolded. There is definitely some lack of attention to detail on the service end. However, the savory dishes were so good we could overlook some of these issues.

This is not just a "good restaurant". They may be many people who will not be able to appreciate the attention to detail and microscopic care that is taken with every component of every dish. The service is impeccable and the atmosphere is very nice, but the food is the star. From where and how it is sourced, to the innovative and precise execution of each dish, this is a peak experience for those who really knew and understand food. The beverage pairings are equally skillful. It's difficult to go back to ordinary food after such an exquisite experience.

10/10 food using few ingredients and good explanations, definitely worth a visit! creations are out of this world! staff a bit “on script” and sometimes aloof or forget to bring something, atmosphere not relaxed as it is too “proper”, bonus points as chef kindly came out to wish us bon appetit and bathrooms are beautiful. playlist not so good.

Chef Cherchi... Chapeau bas. This was possible one of the best expériences I have had tasting wonderful ingrédients expertly and artfully prepared for a very long time. Definitely my top choice for Montpellier. If you want to impress and be impressed, visit this place and enjoy the full tasting menu with the selected wines to go with it. The Sommelier did a wonderful job finding all those local wines that really work well (not very much the orange wine but everything else was just superb). Back to the Chef... he is an Alchemist that transforms simple ingredients into this fleeting, keeps you wishing for more, full of taste dishes. Super Amazing, thank you for the wonderful meal everyone there. (The friendly hosts are super knowledgeable about the foods and wines)

Went there for Valentine's Day. Hands down the best restaurant I have been to and a true culinary experience. The amount of effort put into each dish is truly extraordinary, from the appetisers to the mignardises. The wines matched each dish to perfection, and some complementary drinks were truly surprising (have ever had truffle liquor with champagne? Well, I now have). A place that will wow you.

Truly exquisite cuisine very worthy of all the awards. The chef may seem young but the quality of the food says otherwise. The waiting staff and kitchen staff were all very attentive and helpful and able to adapt to any dietary requirements. The food uses locally sourced ingredients and creativity to compose masterpiece dishes. Vegetables that most would dislike (for example Brussel sprouts) taste like heaven. The decor is beautiful too. The price comes with the territory: this is Michelin level cuisine. A great place to go for a special occasion (if you're rich, just whenever). Would deffo recommend!

Excellent dining experience. You can tell the chef (who came out and greeted guests personally) really takes care of finding great products to work with and then prepares them to perfection. We really enjoyed dining here and the star is so well merited. Maybe some small dissappointment over not having a wine replaced with a different beverage, this is probably explained by some ordinary staff being on holiday (we ate here just after Christmas) but still didn’t feel like the extra mile. Alas! Much worth a visit, a real personal touch!
