Un établissement extrêmement bien tenu, en tout point. On sent qu'à sa tête il y a une direction soucieuse du détail. J'ai juste un mot : "Choisissez-le, réservez, et allez-y !" La prestation restauration est de qualité. Pour mon goût personnel de professionnel du secteur, il manque un peu de viandes ...
