"We had the entrecôte 250 and the cote de boeuf 400. The entrecôte was inedible, full of sinews and fat. The 400 was ok. Shame, as we were dying for a steak. Will go to Buffalo Grill next time as the meat was better. We did get 15% knocked off the bill."

My wife and I have had really enjoyable meals at this chain,first discovering one on the N6 in 1976.We arrived at the restaurant at 5.15pm,for a meal prior to coming home that night.It transpires that only one member of staff was working,who had to take orders,cook the meats,serve the meals and drinks,and then sort out the bills.We felt really sorry for the waitress,who was trying to do her best.We finally got our meal an hour after after arriving.We chose the most expensive steaks on the menu-my ribeye was OK,but my wife's entrecote was extremely thin and tough.Because of the thinness of the meat it arrived bien cuit rather than saignon.It would probably have taken another hour to get a rep...
Menu for kids is 5€, for adults it's 12,90€ if you go for starter main or main and dessert. Food was ok, little salad as a starter is always a nice touch and their special mustard is full of flavour. Waiter was pleasant and helpful. All in all, you can't expect amazing food but always good value for money.
We had the fixed three course menu. I chose the duck breast which was very good and perfectly grilled. The chocolate mousse cake with custard was also delicious. We have used this restaurant many times and a little surprised to find it almost empty on a Thursday evening at 6 pm.
Rocked up only 4 people eating in restaurant. After deciding what we wanted to eat we realised the 1 waitress was also the chef cleaner. Food awful, tough steak re heated chips, cutlery filthy. I guess if your waitressing, cleaning and cooking something has to give !
