"Saturday evening 10/28, dinner at the gourmet restaurant Les Sources de Fontbelle for the 2nd time (5 guests). The first time we were really enchanted by the setting, the service, the aperitif on the terrace and the chef 's proposal. On the other hand, this 2nd experience is very far from what I hoped to be able to experience again. Already from the aperitif we started on a bad basis with a little discriminatory side. This is the only restaurant that punishes you for appetizers because you do not have an aperitif (glass of champagne or cocktails) confirmed by the waiter. All the tables had different appetizers but not our table due to the simple fact that we had a bottle of white wine to start. I learned that you had to like champagne or cocktails to deserve the same service as on the other tables, which is unfortunately not the case for me and my guests followed me, sad for them (I should add which we also had a bottle of red wine afterwards). I find this lamentable for a gourmet restaurant, one Michelin star and for the 8-course menu at €130. For dinner, I was not transported compared to the first time. But this does not deserve criticism because tastes and colors are unique to each person: combination of trout and geranium, lobster and grapefruit (average for me) and cabbage (favorite). For dinner I just regretted that for the pigeon we didn 't ask for cooking and that we didn 't specify that it was very, very spicy. In conclusion, the experience inoculated me for a moment."

"Frankly, serving tap water in Cristalline bottles, which are in the distorted passage to be used, at the limit of recycling, it is completely out of play and deceive customers. Only one visit is enough to make a notice and not to return."

"We had lunch here 3 years ago and were charmed by the ambience of the setting. Eating al fresco on a balcony overlooking a river weir is a great experience. However, the staff were efficient but unsmiling, just as they were 3 years ago! We chose a €27 2 course set meal (very expensive in itself) comprising 6 oysters or (cold) pea soup starter and lamb or salmon main course -hardly exotic or costly to produce. The presentation was good but quantities were small (as last time). We decided to have a dessert to fill up, to find that the 2 dessert choices both contained strawberries (which i can't eat). Who decided that menu?!. We were told we could have creme brulee instead, so we did. When we got the bill for nearly €100 (including 2 aperitifs, 2 glasses of wine and 2 coffees) we were quite taken aback! The small creme brulees had been priced at €10 each from the very expensive a la carte menu! We feel the dishes offered here are fairly simple to produce and do not warrant the high prices charged. We won't go back as there is better value in the area."
