"Back again to this divine little bistro. Today the menu midi offered a crunchy parcel of goats cheese in filo, pork tenderloin in an exquisite light jeu followed by tarte tatin with salted caramel butter sauce.......I love this place. The welcome is always warm, cheerful and prompt. The talented chef is also busy around the tables greeting regulars and newcomers alike. I have eaten here many times and the menu changes every time taking the best local produce and producing a masterpiece. The talented chef has a light touch and the food looks as good as it tastes. Book at least one day in advance to be sure of a table. Snuggled behind the Market Hall at Place Carnot, you could pass by and miss it. Once found though you will be wondering why you did not try it before !"

"super nice and casual restaurant. not a huge choice, especially for my vegan partner, but what we had was really charming. My limousine steak was juicy and full of flavor and accompaniments were just as good. the service was quick and discreet, we felt warm and welcomed. an improvement would be that the vegan curry has more spice and piquant. (avis d'origine) super friendly and relaxed restaurant. not a massive choice especially for my vegan partner but what we had was truly lovely. my limousine entrecôte steak was juicy and full of flavor and the accompaniments were just as good. service was prompt and discreet, we felt warm and welcomed. one improvement would be for the vegan curry to have more spice and kick."

"Only just of the beaten track which makes parking much easier! This restaurant is expensive in relation to others but is good value considering the quality and service. The menu takes a bit of working out as prices for steak are quoted by weight (multiples of 100gms) and the minimum weight you can order is also stated. To make matters more complicated you can also chose how many weeks the meat has been matured for. Whether you choose Classic or 4 week mature, the quality is all good and extremely well cooked. Even meat cooked very rare is melting. This is a "proper" steak restaurant so make sure you go for the steak. There are fixed price menus but I would keep it simple. Steak, chips with its side of vegetables. Pork and lamb is also available and there is a concession to non-meat eaters in the form of a mushroom omelette. I am sure it is delicious ......Wine is also priced at the top end and excellent. . House wine is also very acceptable.Whenever we have visited the clientele have been all French from the professional classes who are there to see and be seen. Its fascinating ! One little niggle. At the price, the amuse bouche could have been more exciting than a thin slice of fairly mundane salami with a chunk of bread. For faux filet (250 gms) and a large entrecote steak (450 gms) , with a bottle of AC Beaujolais the bill will be around 70 Euros. A starter and pud could increase that by at least 20 Euros. Nevertheless, recommended for the quality, service and ambience. The staff are really charming."

"Haven't been here for a while and when I found that Redon was closed for the holidays this was a natural fall back.Note to the restaurant - the exterior looks unloved and downright dingy and we came really close to just walking past and going to one of the restaurants at the bottom of the street. Clean the paintwork up, maybe a couple of olive trees in tubs? SOMETHING that says ' Welcome - come in - we care about details here.....'Anyway - so glad we didn't walk past. Decor is good - fine dining touches if a little dated. Service is inexperienced and there are slips - no butter, wine spilt, no offer to take coats. But the food more than made up for it. For 28 Euros you get an amuse, three courses and mignardises. Add wine and coffee and 2 people walk out well under 100 euros for a superb lunch. Starters ( brandade in gaspacho and salmon with beetroot and vanilla puree) were superb - well judged and seasones with bags of flavour. Mains of a sous vide chicken with verveine were cooked to perfection ( i meant to ask the timing and temp but forgot) and the desserts were excellent - a medley of peaches which were sweet without being cloying.Superb - just please do something about the outside - you deserved to be busier than those 3 tables for lunch!"
