La Gare Bistro is a new restaurant for Gex. It is located in an old train station not too far from…read morethe center of town. The exterior is plain and simple with an ample parking lot for the limited seating service inside. The inside has been given a fresh coat of paint and is decorated in a style and colour palette that just screams "manly minimalism". If you are adept in restaurant eating in France, then the first thing you are likely to notice is that it is very spacious inside. This is quite unlike most French restaurants who cram as many tables into the smallest amount of space possible. La Gare is open for lunch and dinner service. I *HIGHLY* recommend that you make a reservation in advance, either as early in the day as possible, if not the day before. This is not a walk-in friendly restaurant. There is limited seating inside and they do only one service at each meal. The chef is a young man and he has created a smart menu. Not too many options, nor too few, and the carte seems to change every few months. Given the changes this seems like a combination of seasonal menu changes with a few extras thrown in to keep it fresh and interesting. The price is spot on for their bistro fair menu, which means for the region it is quite competitive! My husband and I paid 88€ for 2 entrees, 2 plats, wine (a super yummy Bordeaux), and 2 desserts! Expect your meal to be much better than the average French bistro experience. Remember the chef is young and finding his way, so expect a few small errors here and there, but in general a consistently yummy meal at a great price! (Example, risotto slightly undercooked, 2nd cup of pepper sauce for my husbands steak was clearly rushed and was unfortunately too salty).

A lovely place with nice decor, ambiance and music. My first time there I ordered the entrecote…read morewith fries and the blue cheese sauce. It was tasty. The service was great up until dessert time when we ordered and after close to 30 minutes it never came do we asked for the check and left. The second time I ate here I ordered the asparagus risotto and was super disappointed to get a bowl of rice with barely any asparagus. It's a bistro..not expensive and ok for a meal but I'm not running back there again any time soon.

Salad with fish was very good. Main course was fish in sweet potatoes and relish spread, which was a very interesting combination. Dessert was awesome. Staff easily spoke English and were friendly. Overall very good but not outstanding. But would go again for sure.

Small and lovely Restaurant. There is only one menu each evening, including an aperitif, an…read moreappetizer and the main course. All the ingredients are organic and mostly from the region. The owner likes to explain each course and also likes to have a chat with the guests. The appetizer was very creative (Shrimps, Salad in a grapefruit) and the main course (beef, Rösti, pot de feu) really delicious. Best piece of meat I had for a long time. Also the armosphere was nice an the staff very friendly. The price is for the whole menu.

There were only a handful of people in the bar at the time and it was QUITE apparent they did not care to serve foreigners. I would stay away from this place and go up the road a bit to L'Essentiel or La Lorraine where you are treated with respect.
