What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
La Cristallerie offers an exceptional fine dining experience with creative East-meets-West fusion cuisine and impeccable service, often drawing comparisons to Michelin-starred establishments. Diners rave about the delicious food, particularly the desserts, and the elegant ambiance. While it is an expensive experience, most agree it is worth the cost for a memorable evening.
"If there was an unusual concept, this is it! The menu has just three options: 4, 6, or 8 courses. Then the chef whips up an amazing dinner just for you. You can give ideas and inform of any dietary restrictions of course. but one thing for sure: you will be surprised.
The sommelier takes the same approach, and he serves wine that he thinks would be best suited to your dinner. The wine changes every course.
Truly an amazing experience, deserving of a Michelin star!"
