Customer Reviews
Came to celebrate a friend's birthday. Tried the 3 course meals: 1) Baguette and Brioche with truffle cream cheese: The pastry with the cream cheese spread taste good. We even requested a second serving on the pastry. 2) Unagi and Foie Gras with red wine sauce: The unagi is adequately seasoned and very soft. However, i think the unagi no tare is too strong to overpower the mild taste of the red wine sauce. The portion of the Foie Gras is generous for the appetiser but maybe slightly oily. The beet roots puree at the side is a plus. 3) Wagyu beef tenderloin with bone marrow: This main dish is disappointment. The good thing is the beef is tender and cooked to perfection. However, the beef is severely under seasoned and the sauce taste too mild. The only food that taste good for the main dish is the mash potatoes at the side. 4) Dessert - Mystere: I can only taste sweet. Nothing else. Overall, the course meal started strong but ended on a disappointing note. Nevertheless, I would like to commend the waiter for very welcoming and good customer service.
Service is excellence. Appreciated the passion and friendliness. Atmosphere is good even though located at 3 star hotel. I know some hidden gems do the same. Food is average, can be better. Ingredients is there but the taste is not favorable or memorable kind. No element of surprise. 😂 But it's depends on your own taste.
Went there on a non busy day. Lovely place when not busy by the road. Food is on par to the price, love that. The beef tartare was served cold which was nice. The salmon rillette was slightly too salty for me and I wish the bruchetta bread is somewhat softer (I'm aware its not supposed to be soft, just my preference). The duck leg confit was very tender and not too dry 10/10. The breaded tripe was very basic, definitely will not have that again. Really enjoyed the Fillet De Sole Poele, sauce was on point 9/10. Finally the dessert, I thoroughly enjoyed the Mousse Au Chocolate because I'm biased to chocolate. Overall a nice experience.
Great food with great service by yui and elvis, price will come to 2nd place when everything goes well and excellence.
