Located in a renovated former saddlery in the centre of the village, the Cessy Auberge Communale…read moreranks as one of the best restaurants in the Pays de Gex. It is a favourite with both locals and expatriates. It offers good value traditional French cuisine with a respectable a la carte selection, a good wine list and several menus at graduating prices and choices. The menus tend to reflect the season, such as la chasse in the autumn or whatever mushrooms or fruit are available in late summer. The offering of cheeses presented in a rustic old grape carrier - is quite a good one, usually at least a dozen different kinds with the waiter helpfully explaining each one, including the inevitable Bleu de Gex. Menu du jour is between 15 and 18 euros. More expensive in the evening.

Last night I was looking for a reasonably priced and good value restaurant. As I was browsing…read morethrough a list of restaurants near me by distance I came across this one with an interesting name and an very good rating. It's a classy place and the service is very good. There is a nice atmosphere in there. The tables are with and sturdy yet designed to look sleek so are the chairs and the decor is quite modern and stylish. Go with a collar... I called and asked what the price of a menu was to gauge the price range and to my surprise you could get a delicious three course meal (drinks not included) for 30 euros and if you go at lunch that would become 20 euros . So what to expect from the meal... Well the food is all delicious French Cuisine, what surprised me is that I ended up choosing the vegetarian menu for myself (I was actually happily surprised that I didn't notice a lack of taste or excitement in the dishes) My gf chose the traditional menu (a traditional French cuisine menu) which blew my mind in every aspect starting with tuna tartar followed by pork fillet and to finish This mouthgasm off with a kick they served us both the creme brûlée with amaretto ^^ . The Portions are very generous and very tasty! I raise my hat to the chef! If you are a hungry guy like me, you'll have a hard time feeling hungry for more at the end of this menu. With some excellent white wine (Muscat sec) we ended up spending under 100 euros for 2! That's 2 three ourse meals, sparkling water and a bottle of delicious wine for under 100 euros you've got to be kidding me :D

We stopped by O Brasseur on our way back from hiking outside Thoiry to the west and just before…read morehitting CERN up briefly to learn as much about particle physics as can be understood by a non-physicist. As it's literally a couple minutes down the road from CERN - but on the French side of the border - it makes it a convenient / much cheaper option to eat at. O Brasseur has its own parking lot, but with only 5 non-handicapped spots that can get a bit tight depending on how well/poor others do with parking, you may find it easier to park down in front of the Carrefour that is slightly further down the road and walking back to the pub. Despite being near an international research facility, French is definitely the language of choice here; while the waitress who handled my check knew a decent amount of English, our main server and the man tasked at the bar when we came in knew very little. At least the menu is in English, which made it easy enough to point at when my (extremely rusty) French failed me. The ambiance inside has a typical pub vibe to it, but since there was some shaded seating outside, we ended up out there, enjoying the warmth a little but also the coolness of the shade and the breeze. They do make their own beer here, so props to that. However, the selection is more limited (the English translations came out to lager, witbier, and amber ale - all with the same ABV somehow). I went with the 'limited edition', which I wish I had asked about...it was a Lambic, which was okay, but that kind of beer isn't up my alley. For the food, I would say that my wife's fish burger was actually a bit better / more distinguishable; the fish was very flaky and juicy, although that made it a bit tricky holding together the entire sandwich. My regular beef burger was pretty average - the meat was not as generic as some burgers I have had, but the patty felt a bit on the light side despite being a 6-ounce or so. Despite having bacon, cheese, and caramelized onions on it, none of those extras really came through. The French fries were decent, but the salad - topped with some heavy, mysterious white dressing that neither my wife or I could place - was just taking up space on the plate. The prices are reasonable here, and the vibe is alright - and that's about where expectations should be kept. O Brasseur is a solid place for a casual bite, and if you are in this particular area, you might as well eat here...there aren't many other options from what I could see. I wouldn't go out of my way to end up here again, though.

They were accommodating as well switching out the entree item from the set menu for some in our group. My nems were delicious although I would have preferred a vinegar sauce.
