Le Bistro de L'Hotel sur Beaune

A traditional bistro, with truly vintage interiors furnished with classic taste. Professional and courteous waiters, dressed in black trousers and white shirts. Traditional menu with top-quality ingredients. The menu also features the famous Poulet de Bresse, which is sliced ​​and served at your table! Generous and tasty portions. The crêpe Suzette is excellent! Extensive wine list, mostly local. Medium-high prices.

A timeless dinner on the terrace. A very nice and delicious regional menu. A bit pricey…

Diners come here for the Poulet de Bresse - a 120 euro chicken that comes with high expectations. We started with a simple salad that was tasty and fresh topped with a generous amount of cheese. We then shared the chicken along with a side of fries and vegetables. The chicken visually is spectacular and the carving spectacle is fun. The actual taste of the chicken is amazing, a strong taste where each part of the bird is unique. However, the cook on the chicken is over. It is not as tender as the bird should be, especially at this price. The bird is also under salted in my opinion. The jus however doesn’t need to be adjusted. The fries here are very good, the vegetables are mediocre at best. Service here was wonderful and friendly and the setting is beautiful. Come if you’re happy to spend, but don’t expect a life changing experience.

The chicken and the crêpes Suzette were excellent. The service, however, was listless and inattentive, giving the impression that we were a nuisance as guests and not truly welcome. A shame. We didn't really live up to our own expectations.

The aim is to judge by value for money, and the result is disappointing. When you pay an average of €150 per person, you expect much better. A mixed experience. While the setting is pleasant and the service adequate, the food unfortunately doesn't live up to the prices. The dishes lack depth for an establishment of this caliber. You leave with the feeling you paid for the prestige rather than the cuisine. A shame.

Personally I love the style of the cooking (simple food but executed extremely well), chicken was very very good. This is the type of food I like which is harder to find in the region The staff carving our chicken and making the crepe Suzette seemed to be new and to struggle, however the restaurant acknowledged this and offered us dessert, which we appreciated Only „negative“ is that the price list is quite inflated in price (2-3x retail price). The wines from big/commercial domaines have normal prices, but those from more niche/sought after ones have a high mark up. Understand that this is a tourist area, but would have appreciated a bit more generosity in the wine list
