Le Lexique - Menú

I knew this restaurant from a reference and, once you find it hidden in the Grottes quartier, it's a great experience, impossible to forget. Calm, spacious and above all a great dining pleasure. Excellent quality taking into account the fair pricing of the restaurant. One gets the filling that the chef (and owner of the place) enjoys cooking for a small and appreciating audience. An address to recommend!

We used to really like this place. Food was excellent, the atmosphere relaxed, the service attentive (although not very professional) and the prices reasonable. However, our two last visits were spoilt by the huge amount of salt the cook used in all the dishes that we ordered, bar the dessert. It was really disappointing. The first time it happened, we thought it was just bad luck. But now, we fear it is the norm.

I've eaten here occasionally for lunch, and service has always been on the slow end. There is one lady that manages the restaurant and the bar alone. However the food is decent so I kept coming back.On this last visit, we waited for 30 minutes without even given the opportunity to order a drink. The waitress passed by and when we said we know what we wanted (just plat du jour and sparkling water), she brushed us off saying she needed to take care of other tables first (which had already been served their drinks). So we gave up, got up and left.I won't be coming back here.

This place is astonisihing - even though it is Michelin Star rated, it managed to stay "normal" and makes you feel welcome and down-to-earth. Service is extremly attentive - we had a reservation for a family dinner with a child: when we arrived at athe restaurant there were some toys on the table and the chef cooked a child-firendly meal that was ot even on the menu. Food for the adults is also very good and served in big portions - a feature that one can usually not expect at a Michelin restaurant. I would say it was one of the most plaesant restaurant visits I ever experienced!

Me and my wife recently visited the 2 star Joel Robuchon restaurant at the Metropole Hotel in Monte Carlo so it was easy to judge the standard of food here.The pre starter was delicious. The tempura vegetables in a gazpacho was also excellent and very well presented. As mains we had king prawns in a light madras sauce, and beef entrecôte Simmental with seasonal vegetables, all in a beautiful mustard dressing. The combinations of tastes and textures were excellent, and the Simmental beef was well cooked.All in all a great experience and definitely value for money. We will almost certainly be returning.

This was a great and tasty experience!The foie gras was so good, and well presented! The vegetable with the peanuts sauce were good but maybe could be improved as we can't tell what kind of vegetables are inside the pastry.. but still really good.The entrecote was fabulous!!! Cooked perfectly, the sauce was delicious as the potatoes and the vegetables. The meat was tender and melting, it was one of the best entrecote I never had.The desert was very good also! The waitress was nice and discrete. The restaurant was not full but still nice atmosphere.We had a pinot noir which was excellent. I guess the suggestion menu for 68.- is a really good deal and the quality is definitely on each plates.I...

We walk in with a reservation to a muted welcome from a waitress in a tracksuit. The restaurant is not full the whole time we are there, making us think perhaps a reservation was not required after all. The appetiser is extremely salty and heavy handed with sesame oil. The foie gras is the best experience of the night. The ravioli dish had some surprising touches. The main is smothered in a very unappetitising brown sauce. Although dessert is included in our banquet, we're charged extra for cafe gourmand. The wine is very good. Tables are spacious, and I liked the candles and chandeliers. We have tried to get to this restaurant a couple of times before albeit unsuccessfully, and this satisfi...

Had heard of this place before but never had a chance to try until today - went to lunch with a friend during a busy day and it was a great idea!Don't be mislead by the modest undertone decor of the interior of this small establishment. It is a boutique experience where most emphasis is on food. Menu is quite laconic but the selection of entrees and mains is quite outstanding. I really had a hard time choosing between Sole & Scallops, gambas croustillantes, or risotto au truffe... lamb and beef stake were also there but we felt like having light lunch, so it was fish and seafood that made it in. Food was fantastic. You also have a complimentary "amuse-bouche" and tiny cake/pastry with your c...

Le Lexique is definitely a hidden gem, the location is not obvious but also not very hard to find. I found out about this place from the book Where Chefs Eat and was really pleased. It is small but has a great atmosphere. I ordered the Cote de Provence rosé to start which was amazing. My husband ordered the chef's menu so he started with the prawns which were crunchy and had an amazing flavor. I started with the foie gras, which didn't disappoint. For my main I ordered the ravioli with asparagus and mushrooms which I can not recommend enough! The sauce it was in was really light but packed with flavor, I still dream of the silky texture and pasta. My husband had the veal for his main which w...
