Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Auxerre

15/12/2025: This Léon de Bruxelles in the northern part of Auxerre is typical of the chain: you go there without any surprises, but you know you'll get a decent meal. The menu is, of course, focused on seafood, but offers a few options if you don't like fish. I tried the Léon Casserole, which was good, although the amount of fish was a bit small and probably frozen. Be careful with the garnish: although it says sweet potatoes, it's mostly potatoes (about 80%). The paella was okay, but it's more of a French-style paella, nothing exceptional, and the rice used isn't ideal for this dish. Note that the drinks are quite expensive. Overall: It's a reliable restaurant for a quick meal if you're not looking for anything original. A decent choice.

11/12/2025: The paella was delicious and the waiter Marius was very professional 😊

20/03/2026: Thank you for this enjoyable moment.

02/03/2026: A gem! I highly recommend it. The €20 menu is super delicious and original!

16/07/2026: Very good restaurant. Friendly service. Excellent value for money.

28/03/2026: It's a very nice and good restaurant. The welcome is incredibly warm. The decor is modern, a refreshing change from other restaurants in town. This restaurant is well worth the trip. And the food is delicious! A bonus: parking spaces right in front. Perfect!

17/05/2026: The restaurant was a bit noisy, and there was a bit of a wait for service. The food was basic.

15/05/2026: Nice place, decent menu, but don't be a big eater or you'll still be hungry. For me, it was fine.

18/07/2026: Friendly staff, and the overall atmosphere is quite pleasant. On paper, it seems like an effective choice to satisfy everyone's tastes. However, despite the wide selection on the menu, your choices will be limited to soggy fries, empty mussels, and undercooked pizzas.

14/07/2026: Very good, generous portions, remember to book even at lunchtime as it gets busy, which is very positive but as a result the service can be a little slow, you have to be able to take your time because everyone is responsive but they can't be everywhere, they do as much as they can, well done nonetheless.

12/10/2025: A fantastic restaurant, where the food is delicious and the owner is simply wonderful—welcoming, attentive, and professional. Go there, it's well worth the trip! Superb wood-fired pizzas and a beautiful setting. Thank you to the manager. I would say the best pizza in Auxerre without any hesitation. Thank you, Dominique.

23/09/2025: Very good neighborhood pizzeria. I recommend it.

13/05/2026: Very pleasant. Good service, very decent quality.

23/06/2026: Too bad. I wanted to go on Saturday. Just found out it's closed too. Following the article in L'Yonne Républicaine and on France Bleu. Comment posted in June 2026

23/06/2026: What was bound to happen happened...well done to "Petit futé" as if...very reliable reference 😅 this establishment has just been administratively closed due to cockroaches and serious breaches of food hygiene standards.

19/03/2026: Hello, I spent one night in this hotel and I would avoid it. The reception was friendly, but the room was appalling: completely unsanitary, with moldy windows, mildew, and other issues, stains on the carpet, a cracked bathroom ceiling, mediocre cleaning, and the bed linens weren't hypoallergenic. It was for a business trip, so one night is acceptable, but I find it expensive for what it is, considering the renovations they need to do.

09/03/2026: Overall, a good hotel. The rooms are spacious (at least those on the 5th floor) thanks to the terrace, and the breakfasts are plentiful and varied. However, if you're in room 500 like me, bring earplugs because the elevator machinery is right on the other side of the bathroom. Get ready for a lot of noise every time someone operates the elevator.
