    Caesars Shrimp Salad
    Shay R.

    We were desperately looking for a restaurant open at 3-4pm in Geneva and we stopped at l'Hotel d'Angleterre. They have a really nice inside patio with view over the Leman Lake and the Jet d'Eau. Atmosphere 5/5: The atmosphere is perfect. Elegant and quiet restaurant located right next to the Leman Lake. You're right in front of the Jet d'Eau while you're eating. This is such a great romantic spot during Dinner time. They also have a great selection of Wine. The Caesars costed 23.- CHF + 10.- CHF extra shrimp. They had a fish at 71.- CHF and a meat starting at 50.- CHF. This was the menu between 3pm to 6pm. Food 3/5: I only tried a Caesars Salad with Shrimp (extra charge of 10.- CHF). I was a little bit surprise to see only 3 shrimp when I had my salad. The caesars was good but I had to ask for some extra salad dressing. The bread is excellent and I love the diversity they bring you. Service 5/5: Great great service but you pay the price as well for a service like that. The waiter was really careful about any needs I would have during my meal which was great. I overall had a great time there even if the price are high. You get what you pay for between the service, the view, the atmosphere and the food/drinks.

    My review is for the afternoon tea that is served at Windows. During the week the tea is from 3-6pm, and on weekends starting at noon. Be sure to book in advance as this place can get busy. The atmosphere at Windows is perfection. The floor to ceiling windows over looking the Jet D'eau automatically bring a brightness and romance to the spot, even on an overcast day. The interior is cosy and inviting. The afternoon tea is 43 CHF per person, and includes your choice of tea, five finger sandwiches, scones w/ double Gruyere creme and heated homemade jam, and a variety of bite sized scrumptious sweets. This is definitely not a light meal, thankfully I did not have any lunch beforehand, and I didn't eat much for dinner that evening. I was stuffed. You could easily share the one tea between two people. It is served on a beautiful multi tiered silver tray. The tea menu is quite large, and there are many interesting selections to choose from. The tea was amazing, and the food was scrumptious. The scones come out fresh from the oven. They were the best scones I have had! I would come back just for a pot of tea and their menu option of a plate of 3 scones served with the creme and jam. They were by far the highlight of the entire selection. The service was OK. However, our waitress at the end had ended her shift, and we never seemed to get anyone else after that, so it took a bit to flag someone down at the end. I am glad that I had dressed nicely, as everyone in the restaurant was wearing business suits. I would have definitely felt out of place in jeans and a t-shirt.

    Afternoon tea.

    Really expensive and adequate food. Service was outstanding but otherwise not very memorable.

    Maybe the best value for a café, tea room place in the whole Geneva. With a decor à la…read moreMarie-Antoinette with ribbons, nice draperies, an old carrousel car in the front window, this place serves all things chocolate, tarts, pies, in bite sizes. Casual, you pick a plate and try to choose something out of the whole tasty display. You usually end up crowding up your plate. For my first time at Chez Gautier, a gem right off Geneva railstation, my friend Stephanie, a regular, recommended the home made soup. Ordered a zucchinis and leek soup that came with bread bites. Nice, natural and tasty soup that wasn't too salty, nor too rich. I paired mine up with a nuts bun sandwich with gruyère and the Swiss dried beef, a thinner, tastier and healthier version of the US beef jerky. We both went for a sweet touch with a nut scone that turned out to be a little more of a biscotti and I had the meringue tangerine tart. Delicious! I would highly recommend Chez Quartier, a gem in the heart of Geneva where the service is nice and polite, you get tasty food for fair prices.

I've brought my parents and husband here and they loved the croissant, petit pain au chocolat and ficelle with marmite. They also have a great selection of teas and fresh juice.

I didn't get a chance to ever eat the actual food here and only the pastries of which both were underwhelming. What's great about this spot is that it's cafeteria style. So you have stations and you can grab your tray and order at the made to order pizza station or curries or sandwich or juices. It was cool to see little mugs with chocolate pieces which you can get hot chocolate made in front of you. Seating can get crazy. Sometimes you'll have to share some tables because some tables are communal where we had an interesting encounter with three guys on their phones seemingly talking to someone on their phones....seemed like they were on speed dating or chat rooms. It was really interesting. Anyways, you may have trouble getting a large table, but be patient. There's also a restroom up here too which is nice. I wish I did get a chance to eat something other than the pastries, but at least it's cheap and fairly fast. If you want something faster, just go to the first floor and grab something from there.

    Great place! I loved the cheese plate!…read more Restaurant Manora is a buffet style restaurant where you get a tray, get food, then sit down at a table! Manora itself is one of the best department stores I have ever been to (In the world!) You can get something on the way (because it is on the top floor.) I highly recommend the smoothies as well! The Restaurant Manora has everything From Pastry's to Fruits! The view is also splendid! I highly recommend this place!
