What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Tante Charlotte offers a truly special and intimate dining experience, highly praised for its romantic ambiance, personalized service from the owner, and creative French cuisine. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, a few diners noted that some main courses could be slightly dry or mild, though the wine and overall experience were consistently lauded.
"We had the full dinner for two which included two glasses of champagne, two appetizers, two entrees, two desserts, a bottle of wine and coffee. Each course was delicious, but we particularly enjoyed the avocado and bacon app, the duck, and the house dessert (sponge cake with pears, caramel sauce and whipped cream). The owner took individual attention to each table making everyone feel like welcome guests . His wine recommendation was spot on! I highly recommend dining at this restaurant."
Pat Witt
"We were able to be seated without a reservation, but reservations are probably a good idea because the restaurant filled up. This is place for special occasions with your significant other. The host and hostess were both warm and inviting, the food is excellent, and the atmosphere enchanting. For us this was more than a meal; it was an experience."
Richard Rrr
"A beautifully romantic ambiance. Friendly service.
The beef starter was excellent. The fish was good but little dry. The chicken was little milld and dry.
The red wine was delicious and smooth."

I saw someone online say that dinner here was not just about the food, but about pleasing your senses; I cannot think of a truer statement to describe our experience. The restaurant is lit almost exclusively with one long tapered candle on each table.
