l'île sur Solaize

09/06/2026: Oh well, flies falling into our glasses, we eat with them. Not a big deal for them.

08/06/2026: We came as a family to celebrate a birthday. The setting is very pleasant with a large terrace overlooking a garden and, further on, a pétanque court. The food was good, the set menu wasn't excessively expensive (€46), but unfortunately, the John Dory fillet was overcooked, which was a shame for such a delicious fish. Service and organization: Several comments to make to the staff: - The service was too slow. We had to signal to one of the waiters several times that something was missing, that we hadn't been served, or that we simply didn't have the menu! - I saw two managers on duty, then many young people who didn't dare or couldn't take initiative when asked for something. - There were no paper towels, no trash cans, and no light in the restrooms. - And finally, and perhaps the worst part: I had ordered a birthday cake by phone more than two weeks in advance. I called back on Friday morning for Sunday to make sure the cake was ready. They confirmed it was, and even sent me a photo by text message, which I replied to with my name. Ultimately, the cake was given to another table for a different birthday, and we were given a different cake from a table that never showed up (lucky break!). It was very good, but it wasn't the one we had ordered. The manager apologized but didn't offer us a discount on the bill, which would have been nice. Positive point: Keep the terrace area very pleasant.
