Chef Testart, WOW!!!! Thank you so much for an incredible dining experience. Not one morsel wasted as each dish stood on its own, but flowed without interruption to the next. I was thrilled to learn you wanted to prepare a special meal for our return and am so completely overwhelmed with the level of perfection and personal care you gave to our exceptional experience. And to the amazing sous chef Lucas Cherifï, it was such a pleasure to meet you – – thank you for making the evening and dinner a unique and memorable experience. To Mr. Antoine Montziols, a wine lover’s gift, as your pairings were perfect and your attention to every detail was exceptional. I look forward to the return and a much anticipated curated wine tasting with some of your favorites!!!!

An exceptional dining experience! The food prepared for this special return was authentic and bursting with flavor, the service was attentive and friendly, and the venue is simply stunning. From start to finish, every detail was perfect. I highly recommend this experience for anyone craving top-tier cuisine in a beautiful setting with an authentic touch.
