"Like most things my host Arnaud at Tartasenia got this recommendation right. The menu was small - which is good - but diverse - which is also good. Inventive and clever food ideas. I started with a foccacia and charcuterie type thing with an interesting pesto accompaniment and shared this with my friend who shared her cerviche of trout with me. Both were very good but my foccacia starter was preferred by myself. My main was a lovely piece of beef steak cooked 'cuban' style. It came with sweet potato fries and a spicy bean ragout thing. For me the beef was cooked perfectly. When I ask for rare I rarely get it rare. This was rare. One of the obvious first signs of whether a chef knows what he's doing is how well he can perform simple tasks like cooking a steak properly. He ticked that box. For my friend it was a little too rare so he, without complaint or offence, stuck back on the heat for a bit. Ticked that box too. The 2nd sign of a good chef in my book is if he looks like he eats well of his own food. Chef ticked that box too. Very good chef and a top bloke. The millefois desert was excellent too. The local wine was good. We ordered the more expensive bottle first. When we finished that we asked the lady serving us (the co-owner too I guess) about the cheaper variety of the local wine. She said it was practically as good. Telling. Service before profit is to be highly praised - and it will ensure repeat business so is a smart thing too. The service itself was brilliant. At 26 Euro for three courses this was excellent value. I rarely give 5 stars but this place deserves it. The cherry on the cake was sitting with the staff after service and after the rest of my party had left sipping a Ricard and chatting. When I asked to pay for the Ricard those sweet words 'no charge' came back and graced my ears. Brilliant. Probably the best restaurant in town."

"One of the few places open for dinner in the week after 9am. They show you the menu on a black array with several options to choose from. I ordered the beef net and an Orangina. The fake-filet was delicious: the meat was good and fair, a good quantity, fries, etc. Very good value quality price (15€ for the employee) and fast service. Recommended location (Notice of origin) Desde los pocos lugares abiertos para la cena una semana después de las 9. Te muestran el menú en una tabla con varias opciones para elegir. Pedi el becerro y una Orangina. El singlemillo era delicioso: la carne sabrosa y en su punto, buena cantidad, chips, etc. Calidad ratio muy buen precio (15€ por singlemillo) y rápida atención. Lugar recomendado"

"Copious pancakes and fortunately that the waitress had a smile because when we came back we felt like disturbing the boss! She did the job and was adorable. Crêpes are sometimes curious with curry and rice but all tastes are in nature! The classic was very good."

"The kitchen is honorable and prices are correct On the other hand we were badly placed in front of the door goes and comes with the waitresses who pass and iron... this table, in my opinion, is too much in the room because not pleasant. The service is a little long, it is not because of waitresses who do not stop for a moment, nor the kitchen, simply too many tables and not enough staff."

"A very warm welcome a super friendly staff especially at 3 p.m. when they stopped the service we showed ourselves as a hair on the soup. And they didn't hesitate to serve us to eat. An excellent omelette with girolles I should say more of the girolle with omelettes because the pieces of mushrooms were very fresh and consistent. The boss was very kind and listening to very good advice also for our walks and the lady in the kitchen with whom we had a very warm exchange is a blue cord!!!"
