"Perfect night wife my wife!
The food was excellent: fish and the magre de canard. Both quality and quantity were impressive! We loved it.
The vibe of the place is also great, a bit chic and romantic.
Service was also very good.
High recommend it!"
Rodrigo Moreirao
"What a great surprise!! The food was simply excellent with coherence of quality across the entire meal journey. This restaurant is a clear evidence that we do not need to visit a Michelin starred restaurant to enjoy quality food. We entered the place at 7:00pm and it was almost empty but in just one hour it ended up fully packed! Good wine list with some interesting bottles. Staff, nice and efficient even if a bit overwhelmed when the restaurant is full. That said you don’t notice this. If around in Metz give this restaurant a chance: you will not be disappointed. At least we were not!!"
