Le Lord Godet sur Leschelle

Excellent traditional cuisine, generous portions, warm atmosphere, good value for money. Very friendly owners, they even offered us champagne.

What a delightful surprise this very "vintage" restaurant was! I was taken by friends last week, and I was thrilled! Arlette, the 79-year-old owner, is a charming lady who has been running this restaurant for quite some time... A complete change of scenery is guaranteed, a real step back in time; it's a restaurant like few others. You truly feel like you're in one of those 60s films with Jean Gabin, Paul Belmondo, or Lino Ventura... The tables are beautifully set with real fabrics and placemats, like a special occasion. You can enjoy all sorts of old-fashioned cocktails, like the "Pim's" (with champagne and cherries marinated in brandy), which Arlette knows how to make perfectly. The cuisine is typically French and home-style, with dishes you won't find anywhere else. Rabbit, sweetbreads, veal kidneys, escalope Thiérache-style, homemade foie gras, and other traditional dishes simmered by Philippe, the 65-year-old chef. The desserts are just as excellent as the rest of the menu, not to mention the selection of fine vintage wines at very reasonable prices. This delightfully vintage restaurant, serving authentic French home cooking, is well worth a visit; I assure you, it's worth the trip! It's a welcome change from today's chain restaurants! I recommend making a reservation before you come.

We had a wonderful time with our family. The food was very good, and the service was excellent!

An hour from home, a somewhat random reservation, but a truly superb find. A restaurant like you hardly ever see anymore. The owners have undoubtedly nothing left to prove and could be retired. If they continue, it's surely out of love for their craft, and that comes through in the atmosphere and especially on the plate. Old-fashioned cuisine in the best sense of the word, but not only that: the ingredients are high-quality and superbly prepared. A cuisine you don't find every day, thank you.

I went to France specifically for the frog legs and boy this place didn't disappoint. Very nice food with very nice staff.

Very nice place, the staff is very helpful and friendly. The food is delicious.
