Les Pres d'Eugenie - Eugénie-les-Bains

Thanks to covid our original booking was delayed by almost two years, but we finally made it here, and wow it was worth waiting. without further ado, here was our jour de fete: green coffee chiboust oysters: a very fresh oyster with a...interesting tasty cream 9/10 white asparagus with birne, lauch, sauce: a beautiful combination of textures and arome 9.5/10 delicate egg with caviar, green banana ring fantastic not a court was cut, everyone was different levels of excellent. also the presentation was very good. a wonderful whirlwind of aromas, textures and joys, as we made our way through each. Apart from some of the wonderful homemade meals I had in family and friends home, I can say that this was the best restaurant meal I ever had. for me, even among other 3 Michelin star restaurants, michel guerard 's is the best of the best. the decor and the environment is very peacefully pleasant. service was very good, but not excellent. it seemed to be a few new employees or train at this special evening, and we had a small incident. we had a food item that was served from the dish and on our linen cloth, and instead of removing the server and bringing a fresh exchange back from the kitchen, the server just took it with a fork and spoon and placed it on our teller. we did not want to push back the server, but we mentioned the incident to the manager so that the server could be trained in the right answer to such an accident. the manager was apologetic, replaced these dishes, and I guess because the feeling bad about what had happened gave us a tour through the kitchen. it was a small incident, but well treated by the manager. I prefer to comment only on a restaurant decor, service, or other pleasants, and keep the review only to eat itself. I appreciate this restaurant 10/10. for me, it's the best. I have to eat a better restaurant. I can't expect to go back and re-think!

That wasn't my first 3-Michelin star dining experience, but it reminded me why 3td star is hard to get. from the moment when we were welcome in the restaurant until we were flown back to our room, we were treated like a royal treatment, but in a very subtle and competent way. also the food and the wine were delicious and a joy to consume. bravo!

We were in many 3 stars Michael restaurants all over the world and that remains the best.

This french institution is a perfect setting. Wonderful decor, elegant ambiance, professional and top flight staff. And the food. Well, the Louvre of gastronomy. Mr Guerard is there, watching everything. Just perfection! Bravo le chef! And thank you for your love for so many years!

Having declined an aperitif in the lovely gardens we were shown to our table in the main dining room. This is a beautiful room. Oil paintings on the walls, antique furniture, well chosen and distinctive ornements, beautiful flowers both on the tables and on the...various dressers: all make for a really attractive setting . The food was glorious. We had the exceptionally good mushroom pillow and the (slightly complicated) egg with caviar followed by the guinea fowl and the beef, both excellent. We chose a pre phylloxera wine which was both majestic and refined. For dessert we had the emblematic gateau moelleux a triumph of rhubarb ice cream and abricot puree on a bed of wonderfully soft cake. The staff was very charming and attentive, with a maitre d and a sommelier, both ladies, particularly knowledgeable. The only criticism was a slightly too fast pace between courses and a really long wait for the herbal tea in a deserted lounge. On the whole a true reussite!
