"Absolutely marvelous little bistro in Lausanne!! Creative dishes with a special flare! Such a combination of Artistry and Flavors!! Brilliant! And Mara is a Gem!! 🥰"

"Absolutely delicious food, from starter main and desert I can't think of anything bad to say about it. It's set away from the tourist traps so you know it's got to be good to survive. Maria the lovely host guided me through the menu, recommending the best items on the menu and fantastic local wines to pair. Price is on the higher end but worth it in my opinion.
If you're after genuine fine food without the snobbery then this is the place. Will be returning as soon as I can!"

Restaurants in Lausanne: 16 Adressen für Feinschmecker
Die schlichte, aber stilvoll eingerichtete Lokalität zwischen Lausanne und Pully geniesst einen hervorragenden Ruf, obwohl sie erst vor wenigen Jahren eröffnet wurde: Hier serviert Chef Willy Rossignol, der in renommierten Häusern wie dem Lausanne Palace und dem Mirador Kempinski tätig war, eine unkomplizierte, aber hervorragende mediterrane Küche zu vergleichsweise erschwinglichen Preisen. Mit je drei Vorspeisen, Hauptgängen und Desserts ist die Auswahl relativ klein, und Rossignol wechselt diese alle sechs Wochen. Der Gastroführer «Gault Millau» hat den Koch mit 15 Punkten prämiert.
