29/04/2026: Excellent restaurant. Very warm welcome. The food was delicious and very generous.

27/06/2026: Great restaurant. I had the Honey Chicken Tartine last time I came, and today I had the pulled pork croque monsieur. It was excellent. The croque monsieurs are served with a very crispy vegetable skewer. The portions are generous, and you definitely won't leave hungry. The service is very pleasant and friendly. The desserts are also delicious. The apple and caramel dessert is incredible. Everything is perfectly balanced. We'll be back soon!

27/06/2026: I highly recommend it. The gentleman who serves is very friendly, and the open-faced sandwiches are original and well-made. :) The setting is also relaxing and peaceful.

18/07/2026: Some dishes were very tasty, others were not. The staff was friendly, but towards the end, when it got busier, they seemed to struggle to keep up (in other words, it was the person behind the bar). At the end, I had to ask for my glass of wine twice and never received it. My wife never got her cola either. We got the coffee at the very last minute.

18/07/2026: I love it! The terrace by the water is lovely, but the interior is just as nice! They have excellent products, many of them local—perfect!

19/06/2026: Had the best time with the owner!

05/06/2026: Excellent meal, very warm welcome, it's definitely one of the best kebabs I've ever eaten. I highly recommend it.

04/06/2026: The food was tasty, but unfortunately too cold overall. The cucumber appetizer was very garlicky, so the flavor dominated the entire evening, which was a real shame. There was always a vegetarian option and also a non-alcoholic aperitif.

16/05/2026: We went out for dinner tonight. The meat was tough, the potato croquettes were soggy inside. And the dessert was awful. I highly recommend going out of your way to avoid it.

17/05/2026: During a stop in Auxerre, we went to Restaurant La Palmeraie and had a wonderful time! The food was excellent! Thank you 🤩

15/05/2026: Takeout orders (Too Good To Go). The couscous was delicious and very filling.

17/07/2026: We loved this restaurant; the terrace, the charming staff, and the excellent food were all fantastic. A wonderful discovery!

15/07/2026: Here's a great spot in Auxerre to enjoy delicious, fresh, homemade dishes. They're a real discovery in terms of taste. Like the green gazpacho with its lemon mousse, a refreshing creation. Worth trying if it's still on the menu. We also had snails as a starter (typical in this region), followed by a casserole of andouillette sausage au gratin with Époisses cheese (a local cheese), and then beefsteak tomato carpaccio. Very fresh. For dessert, the poached nectarine was another lovely discovery. All this in a relaxing and pleasant setting, especially with the misting fans on the terrace. The service was friendly and efficient. The owner, who is also the chef, isn't afraid to leave his stove to help with service. Be careful not to go through the wrong door. Don't take the one for the brasserie next door. Make sure you go through the small gate. Otherwise, you won't be eating anything that's actually homemade. Thank you for your table.

24/05/2026: We were a group of 15 on a Saturday night, and our table was set up right in front of the kitchen. A pleasant atmosphere, smooth service, and simple but delicious dishes. Special mention to Alexandre, who was incredibly patient with all of us 😅 The restaurant was recommended by a colleague who didn't usually take such large groups, which is a good sign of quality! In short, I highly recommend it!

24/05/2026: Loved this place: very attentive and friendly service, delicious food beautifully plated and reasonably priced! Very much recommend this place!

13/06/2026: Couscous restaurants have almost all become mediocre, with poor-quality meat and broth that's almost always too greasy. Le Cercle is an exception. A delight: quality and freshness! An exception not only in Auxerre and the Yonne region, but also nationally. For example, despite my extensive experience, I couldn't name a single North African restaurant in Paris or the Île-de-France region in general that's as good as Le Cercle. Warm welcome and fast service to boot. Bravo!

17/05/2026: We were spending the weekend in Auxerre and stumbled upon this great place. We thoroughly enjoyed the merguez couscous, and the staff's friendliness was a real bonus. We highly recommend it!

16/05/2026: Excellent value for money. Delicious and tasty dishes. Calm atmosphere and pleasant service.

05/05/2026: Restaurant in the heart of Auxerre, on the banks of the Yonne River. Very friendly welcome. Good quality wine. The food is excellent. A must-visit on my next trip to the region, with very good value for money.

22/04/2026: Top-notch, the best kebab in Yonne

14/04/2026: We were a group of five Bretons passing through the area. We had a fantastic time; the kebabs were truly excellent, and the atmosphere was very friendly 👍 We had a great time and chatted about the local club with the staff, who were very welcoming—a truly positive experience. We'll definitely be back if we're ever in the area again 😁 Greetings from Brittany, all the best, and see you soon perhaps 😉

25/04/2026: I come from time to time, and it's always just as good, clean, and the staff are very kind and pleasant... Superb!

23/04/2026: Best kebab in Auxerre!! Everything is top-notch 💪🏻👍🏻👍🏻

06/06/2026: I particularly enjoy the merguez sausages and the tea; I'm treated like royalty, and since I always arrive early, I have time to chat with Farid. I must say, I'm a regular. :-)

06/06/2026: A superb restaurant where the welcome matches the excellence and if I had to give 3 stars out of 3 I would give 4 thanks to the owner who has never failed to uphold his prestige.
