Push open the door to this address that we would almost like to be secret as it is so atypical with its warm and wooded room, and its tree-lined patio which allows you to enjoy sunny days. Open from Thursday to Monday lunchtime, this restaurant offers French gastronomy cooked from fresh and local products. Meats raised in the region and local vegetables are the perfect ingredients to enjoy lunch and dinner with generous and gourmet cuisine that evolves with the seasons. Calf's head, fried rib steak, tartare, burger or duck leg, some specialties are essential, offered on the menu alongside creative recipes such as leek gnocchi with parmesan cream.
