We were very excited when this new kid on the block opened a year or so ago, adding a bit of colour to the neighbourhoodwell, figurative colour, as the

Excellent chef, Quick and efficient, the food was perfect.....fois gras parfait, coquilles saint Jacques et profiteroles au chocolat. Best adress in thé Area.

Received a recommendation from a friend living locally to try Bistro St Jean and we weren't disapointed. We both had fish dishes which were imaculately presented with sauted vegetables and a creamy foam sauce. Wine was reasonably pricesd and there was a good selection of half bottles too. Deserts were deserving of special mention, especially the toffee profiterole - chocolate is more conventional but this was something quite special and worth a vist on its own. Decor is modern and comfortable, and I undertand its just been refurbished.

After a long journey by car, we had the chance to stop at this restaurant in the evening. Very good food completed by an attentive service. The waitress advised us to taste the "fleur de bourrache" served with our starter to discover its "oystery taste", which worked so well with the sea food starter. The main composed of veal and pommes boulangere was well accompanied by a Chilean red wine, again recommanded by our waitress. I didn't take a dessert (I'm not a sweet tooth person) but the coffee was served with some chocolate which made a fantastic conclusion to the whole meal. If you are in Bar-Le-Duc, you need to try this address.

Excellent quality and fresh ingredients.You can really feel the chef's passion for food in the way he talks and presents the menu.The staff was not overly friendly but professional and after all I don't go there to chit chat. I go to enjoy a good meal and that is certainly the case here.However, there is only one minus point and hence the only reason why I give this restaurant one star less...and that is the quantity. The portions are really too small.We ordered the full menu because we were very hungry and after the 3 courses plus coffee we still left the table hungry. And this is to me unacceptable in view of the price paid. So if you are OK with a light lunch o...

We wanted to go walking along Lac du Der, which is a giant reservoir and the largest artificial lake in Europe, so looked for a decent restaurant for lunch nearby and found this Bistro in the Michelin Red Guide. It was a 90 minute drive from where we are staying near Epernay, but it was worth the effort as the restaurant was absolutely perfect.It is tiny, in an old renovated epicerie, and everything is cooked in-house, something that has been getting rarer in France, to the point where the government is trying to force restaurants to show what is inhouse and what is brought in and reheated ... not a bad idea in itself, but sadly they have allowed too many loopholes.It is irrelevant here as t...
