06/09/2026: Really enjoyed the atmosphere. A bit hidden, very unique Interieur, that gave a feeling of personality to the room.
Service was a bit mixed: The waiter was absolutely friendly and helpful, but one person was just not enough to keep up. Therefore waiting times, especially towards payment, were too long.
Enjoyed the menu. It was mostly fairly simplistic, but convinced with fresh and tasty ingredients. What tipped the scale to good rather than very good was the meat quality in the main course and the slightly unimaginative desert. Yet: All critics on a high level.
Pricing was very fair. To me derrière is more a 4,5, but just not exceptional enough for 5.
05/09/2026: Returning a year later. The setting, thankfully, remains unchanged. There's still the constant flow of people between the two kitchens across the central room. The library is preferable. Significant progress has been made in the dishes. The ingredients are still exceptional, treated with creativity and mastery. The blending has evolved, achieving perfect balance. A minor criticism of the tapenade amuse-bouche; it was overpowering, a shame given the otherwise exquisite flavors. Three wines by the glass: the first an excellent Moselle, the second forgotten, the third an exceptional Syrah from the Ardèche paired with veal tenderloin. This was changed to a Bourgogne Ropitot, excellent, but still too powerful for the dish. The finesse and freshness of a Moselle Pinot Noir would have been more appropriate. The vanilla-strawberry dessert was excellent, perfectly timed for mirabelle plum season. The third wine, again the same sweet Côtes de Gascogne, was uninteresting. A late-harvest Moselle would have been wonderful. Excellent value for money. A curious lack of interest in deserving Moselle winemakers. Until next time.
