Gault&Millau's review 2026

This splendid, century-old brasserie continues to celebrate its Belle Époque charm with the same elegance as ever—its ornate scrollwork and frescoes, its poetic lines, and its historic allure—all of which are consistently reflected in the cuisine crafted by Cyril Lignac. The iconic chef honors the house’s traditions, which he consistently brings to life: green asparagus with beurre blanc and trout roe, langoustine ravioli with basil bisque, sea bass in a salt crust with a vegetable sauce, braised beef cheek with olives, capers, and mashed potatoes, and a vanilla mille-feuille with pecan praline. Classic wine cellar.
