"The place is easy to be accessed, free parking space. Of course there is a lot of attention on the service, they speak also english, the bathroom is very elegant. The price is that of a high level restaurant, the menù for dinner is around 68 euros, for around 5 dishes. The presentation of the dishes is wonderful, with the usage of "strange" and rare vegetables, local when possible, and also some eatable flowers. The quality is also good with no doubt, but to be honest I didn't think "oh my god ... I've never tasted something like this". Three wines for 21 euros, not too much in france, the sauvignon blanc was very good, the other two nothing special. The last one was a sweet wine similar to the italian moscato, most of the 5 different desserts were all cold, it was impossible in my opinion to find a wine in the whole world that could be good. In general, I really don't think it's a robbery, but I have ated sometimes better with much less money. Maybe it could help to give a menu for 45 euros, with fixed dishes (no choice at all).Summarizing it up, if you wanna try it, give it a try since many people appreciate it so much ... I am also happy to have tried it, but I wouldn't come back for a second time."

"when we left on a late holiday we stopped at dawn for the night and went to eat at the greek and we did not regret. pleasant and warm restaurant with nice bosses, so excellent house dishes. nothing to say was perfect! and then the gargoy cup with the ice at the madeleine de commercy and the floating island with its velvet strawberry a feast. Go and see your eyes closed! Dear angels and olive trees a big thank you.Very soon in Normandy."

"Yesterday, the Tigress and I had lunch at l'Accroche, in Auxerre. It is an inexpensive restaurant and, therefore, we expected honest, simple, food. However, it is far more than that. It is run by a husband and wife team and they both cook. The Tigress started with an avocado salad, which was delicious and very fresh. I had a rabbit and apricot (yes, it works) terrine, which was delightful. I went on to have a duck leg, which had been confit'd in cider and caramelised in honey. I was very pleasantly surprised. The Tigress had a moussaka, which was much appreciated. For dessert, I had one of the best lemon tarts that I have eaten in a long time. I'm inclined to be very judgemental about lemon tart, which is more often than not far too sweet; this was perfect. The Tigress had a cheese selection that was so copious that she could not eat even a 1/4 of it. The Chef, his wife and the serving staff were an absolute delight. We only paid 18 euros each, not including a rather decent local Burgundy."

"What a great discovery! The kitchen is really excellent and refined, simply exquisite. The recipes of idechika and Marie bring a touch of originality in comparison with other traditional gourmet restaurants. I warmly recommend this restaurant, a must-see address if you go through Auxerre!"

"We had tried to get in the owner's other restaurant a little closer to the bridge and our hotel...but it was fully booked; so the waitress directed us here. We were glad she did. It appeared to be the owner who took care of us. Other patrons seemed to be locals; a good sign. The couscous was excellent and copious. The Moroccan 'vin Gris' was just right. Decor was homey and nice. Quite a small place; you might want to call for reservations."
