Fodor's Review:

The dining room has a split personality—the sober framed prints and polished wood of the street-level salon give way to a carefully landscaped and covered first-floor terrace between May and September—but the majestic harbor views are constant at this soigné hotel restaurant facing the Right Bank quay. The menu also evolves with the seasons—Chef Dominique Gauthier tweaks the details of his line-up every few months—but French classics like foie gras, salt- and freshwater fish, roasted rack of lamb, and lobster put in regular appearances. Vegetarians will always find something here; the wine cellar, Geneva's largest, has 40,000 hand-picked bottles.

Reviewed by NYken from New York on 4/19/07
Just had lunch on the veranda looking across at Lake Geneva with the mountains in the distance. The service was impeccable, the food delectable and the price for the 2 course Chef's choice lunch was only sfr 65 including tax and tip. When you factor out the tax and tip it was the equivalent of only about $40. The rolls were fantastic and they had an individual portion of olive oil (in a bottle like airline liquor)...and then we sat for another 2 hours after lunch just enjoying the view and they never once made us feel unwelcome. As a matter of fact they brought out a three tier tray of additional desserts. I will be back...soon.
