The description of pizza sounded refreshing, as I was a bit tired of French cuisine at this point in my trip. I don't think a description of pizza does Le Monge justice, as the restaurant is much nicer than simply pizza, and they have lots of other options to try as well (including traditional French). For dinner I selected a small side salad and the campagna pizza which was delicious! It was larger than a lot of the portions I had seen in France before, and certainly large enough to share between two people. It had several kinds of cheese along with prosciutto. The combination of cheeses makes the pizza quite rich and creamy. My husband had the menu selection (which came with an appetizer of 6 escargot, beef bourguignon, and fruits for dessert). He enjoyed his selection as well. I would definitely stop in Le Monge for a meal and expect friendly servers, quick service and great food.

The other two were 1- great and 2- excellent, but this one- across the board- not good. I am guessing their advertising to English speakers is significant because this was all tourists and I cannot imagine repeat customers. The atmosphere outside is very nice though. We will not return to this one. Veal was completely edible. Just nothing special. Salad the same. I was really surprised due to all the reviews here. I did take a nice photo from our apartment. Check my other reviews- we stayed 16 days in Beaune and tried everything. Two restaurants here we went twice! That says a lot. When looking for great restaurants in France- make sure most reviews are in French language!

Overall it was innovative, delightful and full of flavors but with great French techniques. We were there for Christmas Eve special menu. Happy to report that everything we tasted were no cutting corners, really innovative menu created just for Christmas Eve. My fav was the raw white wish wrapped around blue crab meat, caviar on top but with a few drops of passion fruit purée that make it light and refreshing. The scallops were cooked perfectly in a chestnut cream broth, that I enjoyed every drop of it. The chicken dish was rolled in with truffles and foie gras. The flavors really married well together. Decor was minimalist and cozy, with about 12 tables all together. Amazing meal in Beaune. Michelin worthy minus the stuffiness

You enter into the restaurant and find yourself whisked away into this cellar/cave like setting. We were seated and quickly ordered champagne for the table. Our group did a 3 course menu for lunch. I started with escargot; which proved to be the most amazing snails that I've ever had. Rather than just the traditional butter base, these had prominent red wine flavor from the lovely local burgundy wines. Superb! And true to the rustic setting, I was tasked with using snail tongs and a snail fork, without having a Julia Roberts "Pretty Woman" incident. I did succeed, and enjoyed this amazing first course. Onto the coq au vin, served with potatoes fried in duck fat. Wow. Served family style for our group, this rooster based coq au vin was excellent. Hearty, flavor packed and quite tender. The duck fat potatoes were crispy, full flavored, and excellent drenched in the coq au vin sauce. Paired alongside a lovely pinot noir, the entree was exceptional. For dessert I chose the apple tart. It was sweet, not too sweet, with large apple slices on top. It wasn't the best tart I've had, but nice all the same. I highly recommend visiting La Cellier Vonaysien if you are in the Beaune area. I hope to visit again!

Hotel was a nice mix of oldworld french wine country decor (grand dining room, chateau layout) with modern rooms and beautiful views -- you can purchase wine produced from the vineyards on the property. The rooms themselves are modern and comfortable, with nice bathrooms and nice bed. The restaurant is really great for both breakfast and lunch / dinner. The food is really fresh -- lots of produce grown onsite. If eating dinner and the weather is nice, try to eat outside on the terrace and catch a sunset. Also they have bikes for your use! Definitely borrow one and bike out through the veloroute to some of the neighboring towns. This is a must-do in Meursault. The hospitality of the staff was outstanding. Really lovely people who took such good care of us. We had a couple of silly mishaps (bike accidents, taxis not showing up when they were supposed to) and the staff went above and beyond. When I fell off my bike, the hotel picked me up off the veloroute and brought me back to the hotel. When our taxi did not show up to take us to the Beaune train station early in the morning, the hotel owner drove us to the train station in his car!
