Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Barbizon

13/04/2026: Hearty meal, pleasant setting, very friendly waiter, I recommend it

12/04/2026: We had a wonderful time, thank you to the kitchen and service teams. We will gladly return.

07/03/2026: A reservation request made the day before was never confirmed or refused, with no response whatsoever. There's no point in offering online reservations if this is how it works. We arrived at opening time for a table of five, unsure if our reservation had gone through, and were turned away. The restaurant was completely empty. The person I spoke to wasn't particularly friendly and offered no apology for the lack of confirmation.

02/03/2026: We arrived as a party of 12, and this clearly posed a problem for the waitress. The welcome was particularly cold: no audible or pleasant greeting, unlike the customers who arrived after us. Her closed-off attitude left no room for doubt. She curtly told us not to sit where we had chosen, then gestured towards tables in the back that she was "going to prepare," without any further explanation or courtesy. A more respectful and professional welcome would have been appreciated.

05/04/2026: Delighted with my generous Caesar salad on the sunny terrace. A varied menu. There's something for everyone and every budget, which is great.

27/03/2026: The beating heart of Barbizon. Just like it should be.

19/04/2026: Excellent meal with friends. The food and service were perfect. The waitress was very attentive and pleasant. Beautiful setting. We highly recommend this restaurant.

19/04/2026: HAIR IN THE DISH + REFUSAL TO SERVE A DRINK ON THE TERRACE We had a reservation for two at 7:30 pm. We arrived at 7:00 pm, but the restaurant was closed. We asked the waitress if it would be possible to just have a drink on the terrace while waiting for the restaurant to open. To our surprise, the waitress refused us entry, fearing people would think it was a bar. We informed her that we were going to have drinks at another restaurant, and she said that was fine with us. When the time for our reservation arrived, after I had taken my first course, to my great surprise, there was a HAIR on my carrot... I then spoke to the staff, who were themselves apologetic. When the bill arrived, they offered us a "goodwill gesture" of €7, which only covered the extra cost of the brie, as the waitress put it, for "this slight inconvenience"... If I had noticed the hair during the appetizer, I wouldn't have stayed, and the disappointment of seeing that the customer isn't truly valued is all the more shocking.

11/05/2026: I delayed writing this review due to the amount of work involved and my lack of enthusiasm for it. At €175 per night in April 2026, we were given a room that I can't imagine being rented in winter given its poor insulation. Since we were only there for a few hours outside of our booked night (for hiking in the area), I didn't waste my short weekend fighting to get everything that was so obviously wrong fixed: - The room was completely outdated, "luxurious" in the 60s but hadn't been updated since? Never mind; - Fridge that doesn't cool at all since it's no longer producing cold air (even though it's plugged in and switched on), - TV screen completely shattered, unusable (see video), - Rusty/beige water dripping from the shower (which supports the theory of a nightmarish room, a relic reserved only for the summer season we were given; nevertheless, one could wonder when the last cleaning had been done...), - Freezing bathroom (a cave!) and the towel warmer doesn't work either, - Toilet that struggles to flush, - Bathroom door that no longer closes, - Door handles practically broken, - We're not afraid of spiders, luckily for us, - View of....??? Definitely not the garden as indicated in my reservation, but a rooftop adjoining a ventilation system running at full blast on one side and...nothing (see video) on the other (which is convenient, since the window is so old it's a struggle to open). A real rip-off considering the price (I was asked to pay the tourist tax upon arrival, without even seeing the room). The overall welcome and staff were nonetheless friendly (the bare minimum, given the situation) and did their job to secure parking, which was also mentioned as part of the service. But given the circumstances, it's difficult to judge the quality of service, as the gap between the expected minimum standard and the reality is so dilapidated! (to put it politely). In the lobby, the clientele was 95% Asian (by "rough estimate," of course): I hope the service was better for them! Finally, on a positive note, as far as we're concerned: the bed was very large and very comfortable!

05/05/2026: We stayed two nights at the inn, which had changed hands about ten days prior. Of course, everything wasn't perfect, but the staff's kindness made us forget the minor imperfections. The inn has certainly aged, and one can only hope it will regain its former glory. However, it has retained its charm, and those interested in the history of Barbizon will find reminders of its prestigious past. The rooms are comfortable without being luxurious. The restaurant menu could be expanded and supplemented with a set menu, but the dishes are well-prepared. The setting is pleasant, and one feels at home there.
