After…read morepassing through the hotel's lobby and small bar, a welcoming, cozy sitting room complete with a roaring fireplace greets patrons. It provides a decidedly old-school foil a sleek, clean modern dining room, which foreshadows the meal ahead: classic French, prepared anew. In finer weather, the expansive patio would be ideal for an al fresco meal. Either way, the floor-to-ceiling windows provide a picturesque view of Burgundian Grand Cru vineyards along the ridge above. In fabulous style, the service is perfect, unobtrusive, yet generous. For lunch, it's hard to go wrong with the Menu du Jour, two plates for 19E, three for 25E. The rabbit terrine, expertly made, rich and nuanced, served with a biting whole mustard. Pumpkin soup, spiced beautifully for the season, was creamy, soft, and warming. The chicken ballotine stuffed with herbs and laid over filling red lentils cooked in sultry demi-glace. To pair, the wine list is expansive and filled with Burgundy, at suitable prices. Castel de Tres Girard's on the must-do list for any trek on the Route de Grand Cru.

WOW. This was such an amazing dish....the asparagus was so fresh and in season, and the egg just made this amazing sauce with it, topped with those great crunchies. It was a simple dish, but I'm still thinking about it to this day, and this was 3 weeks ago already. For my main plate, I had the Beef Bourguignon, which I could not pass up since we were in Burgundy. Excellent dish...beef was so tender and cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes were so soft, rich, buttery, and overall damn delicious. Excellent restaurant. Would highly recommend. Inexpensive too.

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.

The waiter was nice, he spoke English and was helpful with translating the menu.
