The waiter was really friendly and spoke good English. The wines we tried were all really good. Their bread was also really good. I had the burgundy beef stew and the sauce was delicious, the beef could've been a little more tender but it was still good. The mashed potatoes were also very creamy a good addition to the dish. For dessert we shared a hazelnut macaroon type thing with ice cream on top, it was also very good! Not overly sweet, but a good balance.

They may not be the fussy food that gain Michelin stars, but they will make you see stars while you're eating. This was our first meal after driving into Burgundy and one of our last lunches. The starters, including the livers and salad, the green salad, gazpacho and especially the rabbit starter were fantastic. Moving onto the 10 or so main dishes, the standouts were entrecôte, skate, cod and chicken. The owner/waiter comes off at first as brusk. But if you take a moment to ask him and informed question or ask him about a wine pairing, he lights up immediately and becomes engaged. His wine list is like a treasure trove and must have 30 to 40 pages of incredible burgundies. He was extremely helpful in finding us Wines that would pair well with what we ordered.

I got a saffron risotto and it was accompanied with carrots, mushrooms, and beets. We also tried a fish carpaccio that was delicious, so light and flavorful, just melted in your mouth. My friends also got the escargot in a squash sauce. The sauce was pretty good, an interesting take on the popular dish. The waiter was nice, he spoke English and was helpful with translating the menu. But it did take us a long time to get our beverages, and we initially planned to order a second bottle of wine but because he never came back we decided against it and saved ourselves some money.

The oeufs de Meurette appetizer was really good, a unique Burgundian specialty consisting of poached eggs in a cream sauce and a red wine reduction sauce. Entrees were lacking with the steak almost too tough to eat and the "Gougère farcie façon Pôchouse" was just steamed salmon on a bun in a pool of sauce. The apple currant crumble, however, was also quite tasty. Overall, acceptable but not great.

Awesome. They have a…read morevery short menu (2 starters / 2 mains / 2 desserts + cheese platter) with excellent value for money (€32 for a 3-course menu). The menu changes every 2 weeks. My boyfriend and I tried everything except the cheese, and there was not a single disappointment. Everything was perfectly cooked and seasoned, and many of the dishes are not classic - I still remember a clementine cannoli with fennel granita, which is one of the best dessert I've ever had. Go there if you visit Chablis - this restaurant is truly impressive.

We had for dinner one vegetarian 5 course and one Hommage Aux Saveurs menu with a substitution of the foie gras dish from the Mes Racines menu for the "Brochet A La Falcon D'une Fôchouse" white fish appetizer. The service is very warm and the waiters only know the word yes--just the kind of service deserving of a 2 or 3 Michelin white tablecloth fancy restaurant. The first dish was a great collection of local vegetables that struck us both as similar to Blue Hill at Stone Barns. We immediately Wikipedia'd the restaurant and learned that the previous head chef before he committed suicide was famous for using local fresh ingredients and low cream, revolutionary in his generation for French Haute Cuisine. Foie Gras dish was Bomb; I snuck a bite and it was delicious, perfect hot temperature, and not too fatty. The vegetarian dish for that course was a green asparagus with an egg cream. Savory dish for meat eater was veal served pink; savory dish for vegetarian was a layered potato with melted cheese and fresh cilantro on top. The cheese spread was amazing, and the wine was very overpriced compared to the Burgundy joints we visited.

Bernard Loiseau lived and died a legend. If you don't know to whom I refer, read "The…read morePerfectionist" about the life of this legendary French chef who battled depression his entire career, but still became a Three-Michelin star chef. When reports came out that he was going to lose a star, he shot himself at a fairly-young age. If that doesn't make you want to stay and dine at his legendary hotel and restaurant, well, read the book, and then book it. Tucked away in a small town in Burgundy, lies the Relais Bernard Loiseau. It is a gorgeous, yet unconventional, hotel. It has large cabin-like rooms, and a beautiful spa downstairs where I did indulge in a treatment or two. While the hotel is gorgeous, gourmands flock far and wide for the legendary food and to clench a bit of the legend. As an ignorant non-foodie, I did not know much about Loiseau, when I arrived, but, was quickly educated. There is not much to do in this little town, with the exception of a few bars and the hotel and gift shop attached. It is very quaint and lovely. The restaurant is in word: astonishing. Each course is elegantly and gloriously prepared. I still think about their signature cocktail, my first frog leg, and the tenderness of the beef. The dining rooms are incredible, as is the lounges where you enjoy your cocktails and wine. I would recommend challenging your palette to one of the set menus. The pastries are divine. The hotel in general has exceptional service. They even provided us with our own driver/certified sommelier for wine tasting throughout burgundy. It really doesn't get any better than this. If you ever find yourself in France, it is worth the drive (only two hours if you don't get lost from Paris).
