This is what I would call old-world service and cuisine, and it was a very pleasant change to sit in a restaurant where the waiters genuinely knew how to serve.
The table was laid beautifully, with all the little details you rarely see these days — even proper soup spoons rather than ordinary cutlery. The meal was served on beautiful porcelain with a gold rim and the restaurant’s logo, which added a lovely touch of elegance.
The food was excellent, with absolutely no complaints. There was more than enough, and in particular we really enjoyed the ribeye and the foie gras. The wine, which was included with the meal, was also very good. In fact, we enjoyed the experience so much that we returned again the following evening.
Sitting in the beautiful garden that evening was a real pleasure. There was a very sweet pianist, who must have been in his 80s, playing all manner of wonderful songs. Unfortunately for me, I knew most of them — which I suppose is either a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how you look at it! 😂
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be returning to try some of the restaurant’s other specialities, particularly the Beef Wellington.
10 out of 10. We absolutely loved the food, the service, the setting and, above all, the wonderful old-world atmosphere. A real gem.
