Who'd have thunk our first meal our recent 9-day trip to Switzerland and Lyon would be our best? It…read moreseemed a bit spendy at the time (and it was our most expensive meal), but it was absolutely delicious, high quality, well executed the whole way through, and accommodating of us showing up at 9pm. I had slow-cooked beef wrapped in the most delicate of cabbage (could you even call it cabbage?), drizzled with mashed potatoes and au jus around the edge. It was such an elegant take on a classic preparation. Devine. The wine pours were not generous, I'd recommend ordering a bottle. But overall this was AMAZING, and I wish we had it some time into our trip so we could reflect on just how uniquely impressive it was.

I went to the Chat Noir with some friends this evening, and had quite high expectations given the…read moregood reviews it had; unfortunately, I left the place disappointed. The restaurant was clean, the employees were really friendly, and the menu looked quite tasty. I ordered some veal with mushrooms, while my wife had lobster. The problem is, both of those were really, really too salty. I finished my meal one hour ago, and I can still only feel the salt in my mouth... If that was a regular restaurant, I might have given it three stars. But given the high price tag, I don't think it's worth more than two. I definitely won't be going there again.

If you really want to eat here, be sure to come at a non peak time or make a reservation. The decor is really cute inside and it's a warm and cozy vibe. I tried their spinach, egg and cheese crepe, which was delicious and very filling! It's crisper and saltier than other savory crepes I've had in the past, but I highly recommend. They have a ton of options and an English menu as well. I also ordered a hot chocolate based on another Yelp review's recommendation, but I didn't like it. I don't recommend ordering it because it is essentially just a package of powered hot chocolate and steamed milk. Regardless I would definitely stop in if you're in the area and be sure to call ahead in you're really inclined to eat here!

If you're looking for a reliable spot with great service and a welcoming environment, Le Pointu is definitely worth a visit.

The place is trendy and laid back. There weren't a lot of menu items but enough for a small cafe. We came in on a Monday so no brunch options but we did get some pancakes and drinks.

I am curious to try their other brunch menus so maybe I will revisit if I'm in Lausanne again.

Atmosphere 4/5: Nothing fancy or too weird. The restaurant is well located and close to the main Bus station "Saint Francois". The place itself looks like a modern ish Cafe Restaurant. Food 5/5: I was delighted both times. First time, I had a Salmon with Mashed Potatoes and I had the second time, a Hashi Parmentier which was EXCELLENT. It's one of their specialty there and it comes with a Salad for 18 CHF. Service 5/5: The staff is friendly and professional. They make sure to accomadate you to the best they can get you. The service is quiet fast if you're short on time. Last but not least, make sure to reserve your tables during Summer time on the Terrace ahead of time because they tend to be most of the time full by the time you get there even at 11am.

I would love to give this all five stars but the service was pretty poor the last time I was there…read morethat I bumped it down. The food is great and if you get good service, the experience is worth it. However, you should expect to wait a while to have anyone come acknowledge you and plan to wave the waiter/waitress down a lot. I've been here for brunch on a Sunday and the food was pretty good. I went again for dinner and it was tapas style. It is a great way to taste a lot of good foods. The tartar was just ok, but the later night menu items were really good. Plan to make a reservation early enough if you can, otherwise tables are nearly impossible to get. So overall - good food and probably worth trying to get to in Lausanne...but prepare correctly!
