Slanted Door Beaune

It’s advertised as Vietnamese, but I’d say Vietnamese-inspired French cuisine. It was really enjoyable, great food and wine pairing, easy to book, and very friendly and helpful staff. Great dining experience.

We had diner at Slanted Door in Beaune & we can't wait to return. The food was delicious! We're locals and this food is different, refreshing and unlike anything else in Beaune. So many great items on both lunch and diner menus, so we'll visit many times to try them all! We enjoyed a great non-alcoholic cocktail from the bartender (that bar is gorgeous! What a room!) and also of course delicious wine! The desert cart was a fun way to finish the meal.

Just amazing since we arrived with our reservations for a group of 7 and we had our little space with a round table… service food and desserts were all just amazing and we could taste everybody’s plate Love it after being in slanted door in san francisco 25 years ago

A really lovely dinner! Each plate was delicious, but the standout was the daikon rice cake. We enjoyed talking to the sommelier, and felt fine asking for a lower cost bottle from the region. She brought us a lovely vin blanc from Cote d’Beaune. A great ambiance too.

We were excited to try Slanted Door as my wife is Vietnamese, but we found it incredibly disappointing. The food was not inventive at all. The ingredient quality was high, but the flavors and recipes were derivative. They don't offer Pho outside of the winter, which is bizarre as Vietnamese eat it all year round, and it's always hot in Vietnam. Dish-by-dish breakdown: Salmon Crudo - 25 euros for a meagre portion. This dish wasn't really Vietnamese. 2.5/5 taste, 1.5/5 when taking the price into consideration. Shrimp Spring Rolls - 19 euros. You could barely taste the herbs in them, and they used mayo. You get 8 small pieces with very little Shrimp. Nothing special at all about them, similar to what you'd get for 5 euros in any Vietnamese restaurant. 2/5. Crab Glass Noodles - 36 euros. Such a basic dish. Barely any crab of course. Barely any flavor whatsoever, it's like they forgot to sauce it. Pretty much just noodles and some small pieces of crab. Should have cost about 12 euros. 1/5 Chicken Claypot - 36 euros. Tiny portion, way too salty. The flavor of the sauce was good. They need to serve it with something, though. It's just a small pot of about 10 small bites of chicken covered in sauce. Should have cost about 12-15 euros. 1.5/5 Mushroom Side Dish - 14 euros. Surprisingly, a reasonable sized portion of mushrooms for the price. They had nice flavor, but again they were so salty they were hard to finish. 2/5 Service - 2/5 Dessert - We didn't order because none of the 3 dishes were even Vietnamese. They were standard pastries you find around Beaune. Odd. By this point we were over the dinner and ready to head out anyways. We spent over 50 euros per person just on food, and we were still hungry when we left. It felt like quite a tourist trap.

Great Vietnamese resto from SF. Best pho I’ve ever had. Go for it even if it’s a bit out of place. They have an amazing wine list and serve all their bottles by the glass.

This is outstanding. Stopped in on a cold rainy night in January and was very glad that I did. We ate in the San Francisco Slanted Door numerous times prior to its recent relocation. The Beaune restaurant is a “collaboration” but higher quality than the SF original. Flavors were much brighter and fresher. Excellent somm as well. Service was highly proficient and thoughtful. I look forward to dining here again next January.

We have eaten many times st Slanted Door in San Francisco but the Beaune restaurant was far superior to anything we have ever rated at Slanted Door in San Francisco . The quality of the ingredients was exceptional and the service superb. I did not know how truly flavorful freshly made spring rolls could be - every flavor perfect and the crab and cellophane noodles raised this fish to new heights . The sommelier was so knowledgeable and guided us to some of the best wines we had had. When you decide you cannot eat another escargot - go to Slanted Door. Your tastebuds will say thank you !
