Restaurant Le Convivial sur Gex

Great food, great service, lovely restaurant. French cuisine, always fresh. You don't get a huge choice of meals or sides but that's part of the deal and of its charm. All of them yummy. Desserts are great. Very nice selection of wines too. Definitely recommend.

Everyone knows that Bears only like the peace and quiet of the woods. Cities are a source of intense stress for them. Unfortunately, there are few good restaurants hidden away in the woods. Who knows why? So, this lunchtime, since my stomach had officially informed my brain of the absolute necessity of finding food quickly, I decided to brave the many dangers of the city and go as discreetly as possible to "Les Cocottes Gessiennes." And I'm so glad I did! Even a grumpy Bear quickly feels at home in this welcoming restaurant with its very friendly staff. To prevent me from feeding off one of the diners already seated in the main room, the chef showed me downstairs. An old cellar with a charmingly old-fashioned, family atmosphere. I opted for the set menu. The kind of menu you'd usually find à la carte: Eggs Florentine as a starter. A Mouse Tongue with fries as a main course. A tarte Tatin for dessert. A beer and a coffee to go with it. And just like that, my purse is about 27 Euros lighter... While my stomach is filled with far more than 27 succulent flavors that make me promise to return.

I went to eat with my uncle, who is a very good cook and hard to please at restaurants! He was delighted; everything was delicious, beautifully presented, and the atmosphere was very friendly! We'll definitely be back soon! Thank you, Patrick and Sébastien!

A restaurant with genuine people and exquisite food. A must-visit in Gex.

Top-notch restaurant. I went with my husband and daughter. A real treat for the eyes and the taste buds. A big BRAVO to the Chef and the entire team. A must-visit in the Pays de Gex.

What can I say? It's absolutely perfect. The food is prepared with care and love, and the service is impeccable. Please don't change a thing.

Excellent restaurant, very warm welcome. The food was delicious, made with fresh ingredients. I highly recommend it; it's best to book in advance.

Superb cuisine! Honestly, I've been in the Pays de Gex region for a long time and I don't know why I missed this restaurant. It's definitely underrated! Impeccable service and incredibly refined cuisine. I will be a loyal customer of this restaurant, which remains a must-try in the area! Excellent value for money and a passionate chef! Thank you again and see you very soon!

The sea bream fillet was excellent! The beef was the same. However, the lemon tart for dessert wasn't homemade.
