  • 1. La Rôtisserie du Chambertin

    $$$$

    Located right in the middle of the charming village of Gevrey-Chambertin, this 18th-century stone mansion features a gastronomic restaurant, a bistro, and nine smartly decorated rooms. Diners are drawn here by the cozy, chalet-style decor (think plank floors and wooden beams), the spot-on service, and the stellar cuisine that takes terroir dishes to new gastronomic heights. Traditional Burgundy dishes are given a complete makeover, such as snails in a foamy sauce topped with garlic flowers; hand-cut steak tartare with ginger, grated hazelnut, and clover leaves; and pork loin prepared by the in-house butcher. Table d'Hôtes, the gourmet restaurant, offers €62 lunch and €102 dinner prix-fixe menus while the bistro Lucien on the ground floor offers a trimmed-back menu and an outdoor terrace.
