Merveilleux! Magnifique! And I don't even speak French!…read more We were directed to this café by a tour guide and through online recommendations. It was one of very few eating establishments near our hotel, so given its popularity and being aware of the need to have reservations for dinner, we decided to try a mid-day lunch. There was nobody eating indoors, so we selected an outside table. The area is mostly shady and has a nice feel, but tables are rather closely spaced, and if you're sensitive to cigarette smoke, you might not enjoy this. The menu has many classical Swiss dishes, and the place is best known for its outstanding fondue. We ordered this to share. A carafe of water, our wine, and a basket of not-so-fresh crusty bread (uncubed) came first. Then the fondue (in a cast iron pot), my gazpacho, and my husband's salad arrived. The waiter offered a half portion of salad, which was perfect. My gazpacho was slightly textured, had hints of garlic, onion, and peppers, and came with mini-croutons. It was perfect on that hot afternoon. But the star of our lunch was the amazing fondue, which was thick and flavorful. We did have to cut up the bread for dipping, and it certainly could have been fresher. There were lots of sparrows trying to get their share of it. All in all, this was a great afternoon meal at a reasonable cost (for Switzerland, anyhow). We'd do it again in a heartbeat!

Do you like cheese? Then this is your place. We made a reservation and we're glad we did because…read morethe place was packed and they were turning people away later in the evening. Since the place is known for fondue, we had to get that and it was really good. I could have just eaten that and been fine but I didn't know that ahead of time and ordered some ravioli, which was very good too. Service was fairly friendly and the food was great, so I give it two thumbs up. I will say the seating is a little tight but they're trying to give as many people as possible the opportunity to eat here so I get it.

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.

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
