The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

This place was a huge letdown. They had a cute little artisanal market on the front left of the…read morerestaurant. They had a number of goods to choose from and I ended up buying a few things for souvenirs. As for the actual restaurant, they had a number of delicious sounding items on their menu. Our server was very attentive to us and helped us decide on our dinner orders. Similar to the other restaurants though. After our food was delivered, it was far in between when we were checked on again. And after dessert it took even longer for our server to bring the bill. Overall, the food was a letdown. I do not exaggerate when I say that the frog legs just tasted like slightly flavored water. My friend's ravioli had a fairly decent flavored sauce but the pasta was a bit chewy. My friend's duck breast was pretty tough; I had noticed the table next to us also ordered it and they seemed to have trouble finishing/cutting theirs as well. As for my steak with foie gras, well the steak was once again tough and the foie gras was weirdly stringy. It was soft for the most part but there were parts that were tough and stringy. Maybe that's a section that's generally separated in the preparation process and it was missed? In any case it was disappointing. What wasn't disappointing was dessert though; perfectly sweet and balanced.

In the middle of a far-too-compressed chateau trip from Paris, we stopped here for lunch. Chose…read morethis spot based on reviews. Unfortunately my meal was forgettable. Service was friendly and efficient enough. No complaints there. I chose the plate of the day, which was a steak in red wine sauce. The dish was visually appealing, with artfully diced and presented squash, asparagus, and carrots, potatoes, and the sauce with shallots. However, the flavor was lacking, and the meat was unevenly cooked and tough in spots. The appetizer of 3 shrimp in a carrot-cardamom purée was good, but not exceptional. The presentation was outstanding. I also had a glass of very average house wine. My companion's fish with coconut-lime sauce was better, with nicely cooked scorpionfish. Verdict - this sounds terrible, but while the value was good for the meal (e29 total), I wish I had stopped at the bakery-cafe down the street instead as I expect the dishes would have been more flavorful. Either that, or my palate was just off during the visit. I've never touched the salt shaker in France before but this time, the flavors needed a boost.

It was huge, tasty, and an experience in its own. The scallops were great and three beef dishes were also unbelievably delicious. I let the server recommended me a wine, I had the best 7 euro glass of wine ever. Our server at the end of the night was so witty, her jokes in English were so good, and her English was terrible. I wish I spoke French so I could hear her jokes in her language, I bet they would have been even better. Over all it was the best experience, best food, and worth the prices.

But what is the best part about Le Chalet, is that it is private, quaint, and the owner is incredibly friendly. We lived about 10 minutes away and once we found Le Chalet, it's the only place we went out to eat at. The owner always recognized us and was extremely courteous. One time we left a large tip (not standard in France) because we were so pleased with the service, and the next time we went to eat here (a couple weeks later) she brought it back to us saying that we had overpaid. (!!!) We liked this place so much that we had them cater a dinner we held at home for our parents after our MBA graduation ceremony. It is kind of hard to find and not well known, which although one of the nice things about it (because you never have to wait), I really want the owner to get more business, because she deserves it. Please, go eat at Le Chalet!!!

Located at the base of the town (and convenient to parking) this is a perfect stop to fortify yourself after a climb up the hill. The interior is quietly elegant in a clubby way and the staff is helpful and very knowledgeable. I opted for the €25 lunch menu which started with a lovely amuse of mushroom velouté. My plat was a "faux filet" but there was nothing tough or gristly about the beautiful steak I was served. It was perfectly medium, and served with mushrooms and a peppercorn wine sauce. That was followed by one of the most delicious desserts ever - pain perdu with an orange honey glaze and spiced ice cream. The bread had a sugary crunch outside and was soft inside, perfect for soaking up that beautiful sauce. If you're looking for a good lunch spot in the area, treat yourself here - this is high quality done exceptionally well by nice people.
