Distillerie sur Gosnay

We had lunch at La Distillerie by a fireplace. The courses flowed smoothly, accompanied by music. From appetizer to dessert, we had a delightful time. The servers were attentive and friendly. The outdoor setting was an added bonus.

Arrived at 8 p.m., 8:30 p.m. Until now, no drinks… forgotten; tried to order some food: no beef available. No Beef tartare, no Entrecôte, no Filet. Beef was 50% of the menu. Ordered something else … average. Mousse au Chocolate Unpretentious…

A rather disappointing experience. The service was particularly slow and disorganized. We waited almost 45 minutes for our aperitif. The fries were served about ten minutes before the steak tartare, so they were cold when the dish finally arrived. The quality of the food was decent, but nothing special. Our waitress was very friendly and well-intentioned, but she seemed to lack training and coordination, which made the service choppy, hesitant, and slow. Finally, in the middle of a heatwave, the complete absence of air conditioning or even a simple fan made the meal quite uncomfortable. This is a place that would benefit from improving its organization and customer comfort.

Excellent meal, thank you to the two young waitresses. Noisette, the little Jack Russell.

We had a lovely time at La Distillerie. The two young waitresses were incredibly friendly, smiling, and full of enthusiasm despite what seemed to be a difficult situation for them. Since the reopening, there's clearly been a staff shortage, which inevitably leads to some wait times, but the waitresses are absolutely not to blame: we saw them constantly running around the dining room during service, trying their best to manage the situation. They were very professional and pleasant from beginning to end. Unfortunately, the budget cuts are affecting the customer experience. On the other hand, the quality of the food hasn't changed since our last visit: the dishes are still delicious and prepared with high-quality ingredients. One minor drawback was the rather cold atmosphere, as the door was left open all evening. We were constantly in a draft, which somewhat spoiled the comfort of the meal. Despite this, I still recommend the restaurant for the quality of its cuisine and the professionalism of its staff.
