★★★★☆
We came as a group of four-two adults, two kids, one turning eleven. Every table looks out over the lake, which is a nice start. It took the staff a few minutes to notice us, even though there were plenty of them. Once they did, service clicked into gear: extra snacks kept showing up, the bread was next-level, and our glasses never stayed empty for long.
We picked a light local wine. It was good, not life-changing, and priced the way wine is in most fancy places-higher than you’d like, but not shocking. The menu mixes things up in a fun way. My “Simply Beef” was tasty but on the small side; everyone else was happy with their dishes. So maybe a me problem.
The whole team seemed keen to make the night work, and the mood stayed relaxed-great for giving the kids their first Michelin experience without feeling stiff.
Is it worth the money? Hard to say. If you’re asking the question, you’re probably ready to spend it anyway.
