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.

Impressive especially for the cost (three courses, 32 euros). Beautiful flavors and presentations. Not sure dessert is their strongest course; yet the tomato granite was amazing. Casual, contemporary. English speaking servers (but carte is in french)

They weren't too busy. The service was exceptional, well trained staff and multiple staff people waiting on our table. My companion had a set menu: starter, 2 main courses and dessert with wine pairings. I don't like eating so much at the typical French dinner time of 8 or 830pm. So I had one main dish and dessert. They brought us amuse bouche with our pre-dinner drinks, upstairs. And then once we took the gold elevator to the ground level there was another light dish before the meal. I had the veal with short rib, with artichokes and a lovely melange of fall vegetables. The veal and short rib were tender and bursting w flavor. My companion had both the lobster and sweetbread dishes. He commented that the sweetbread was excellent. Again we were presented with a pre dessert, a lovely glass piece with tiny bites of various pateries. Delightful. My dessert choice was far superior - napoleon. They cut it into 2 slices and I could only eat the first half. The creme was rich and light at the same time. The pastry also light layers, but still held the dish together.

I started with the onion soup, which was easily the saddest onion soup I've had in France. The flavor was good, but it just had some shredded cheese sprinkled on the top, not bruleed as advertised on the menu. For my main course, I had the roast duck. I ordered it medium, but it was totally overcooked and tough, with no pink inside at all. It made me feel bad that a duck lost its life just to be overcooked. The duck was beautifully presented, though, with a side of carrots, mashed veggies, and a mini mushroom crepe on the side. The sides were easily the best part of the meal. Service was good, and I liked the wine that I had. Sadly, I wouldn't go back because of the food quality.

The two of us each got the lunch formule, which included an appetizer and an entree or an entree and a dessert; we both opted for the former combo. I got the "fondue," which was not what it sounded like. It was more like mini pizzas with tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese on baguette slices. Delicious nonetheless. My boyfriend ordered a chevre salad. The goat cheese was plentiful, and spiced with sun dried tomatoes and chives. For our entrees, we ordered salmon with a cream sauce and magret de canard (duck breast). Both were great. The salmon was cooked well, and the sauce was very good, albeit very heavy. The duck was moist on the inside with crispy skin, and also had a nice sauce. Both dishes came with a half of a baked tomato covered in breadcrums - interesting, but not my favorite part of the meal. The waitress was very nice, even when she got overwhelmed by about 40 loud tourists who came in mid-way through our meal (we were quiet tourists, of course). If I'm ever back in Fontainbebleau then I'll definitely come back here.

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.
