Gourmet Restaurant

The enviable location near the Vieux-Marché, as well as the setting of this rather remarkable 18th-century vaulted cellar, might lead one to suspect it’s a tourist trap. However, Chef Hakim Benallal, with a semi-gourmet menu that strikes a balance between creativity and restraint, genuinely cares about his customers, offering concise menus into which he pours his attention and culinary skill. At €39 and €48, and given the consideration shown, we have no complaints; and on our last visit, the dining room was full with a good forty guests: nothing to fault about the fresh and flavorful crab and avocado tartlet; we were slightly less enthusiastic about the veal chop, which was too tough for a dish served lukewarm, despite a good, full-bodied gravy, and a decent Black Forest-style dessert with chocolate and sour cherries. The young staff really goes above and beyond, working with heart and dedication to satisfy everyone—a real strength despite their lack of experience. The wine cellar isn’t very extensive, but it offers a satisfactory selection by the glass, ranging from €9 to €14.
