    We arrived a little late for our reservation at 7.30, I had thought I had booked 8pm but apparently…read moremy res was at 7.15pm. My mistake, I apologized. We were abruptly told by a little rude waiter that we were late, he made such a fuss I thought he was going to say he couldn't seat us but then he gave us a table in the corner outside! The table was uncomfortably small (we are not big people) it was cramped! We ordered some drinks and apps and within about 20 mins I had water dripping down my back and on my arms which I thought was raindrops! I realized that actually it was water leaking from the apartment drains above. The water was also hitting the table and going in our food! We asked to be moved indoor where there were tables but we were promptly told to shift to the table next to ours outside. We did so but realized more water coming down on the food! When I complained and said it's unacceptable, the waiter asked do we want a table inside? Lol, so now you have space but before you didn't! The waiter just shrugged and said it's normal when you have apartments above! Absolutely disgusting attitude and rude treatment of paying customers! We left without finishing our contaminated food! We paid for it but there was no compensation or apology! Don't bother going here, most other restaurants we went to we received excellent service and pleasant people!

    Very small Bouchon with very good food. We dropped in for lunch and had traditional lyonnaise fair…read more The pike soufflé was magnificent. The terrine was very nice, even the included salad was good. Nice assortment of wines at fair price. Please try this place. You will not regret it.

    The food was ok but not as good as most of the other restaurants we ate at over a two week vacation…read morein France. The service was very bad. They seated us and the servers only came by our table to drop off our food. We had to get up to request a second glass of wine which never came. However they put it on our bill. They removed the charge at our request. I would avoid this restaurant.

    Caveau is Definitely one of the best restaurants in Beaune-ville. Delicious food, excellent…read moreservice, and romantically set in a old wine cellar with good lighting. We had: Six Burgundy snails with garlic and hazelnuts, Beef Bourguignon, Chicken breast with cream sauce, pouched eggs in bourguignon sauce, creme brulee and Creme de cassis 'bread' with raspberry sorbet. With 2013 Chablis and 2011 Monthelie Cuvée Miss Armande. Definitely order the 2011 Monthelie. As our tour guide told us earlier: Monthelie is the affordable delicious everyday wine. Best Burgundy snails ever! Delicious garlicky hazelnut blend with butter and olive oil. Juicy, meaty snails. I don't know where they get their snails but the snails were amazing! And that Beef bourguignon! OMG! Tasted like it was braised for hours. So tender, it tasted of onions, red wine, it was perfectly seasoned. Creme Brulee was solid. Perfect caramelized crust. And the almond flake that adorned the dessert was a like a slice of a great almond horn. The bread was a blackcurrant cake that fluffy, like a marshmallow mated with a souffle. So good. Excellent service, albeit a little pushy.

    Ambiance was charming, service agreeable, plates could have been done better…read more La mère jean was my first bouchon expérience in Lyon and it was very nice. However I knew it would not be my only bouchon dinner after trying the typical dishes of eggs in red wine sauce and fish dumplings. I had never had these food before but I know how to cook so I knew something was off. The red wine sauce was thin and watery and the fish dumplings dense and pale. It was a Monday evening so perhaps the best chef had the night off. The wine was very good and the atmosphere was perfectly lyonnaise.

    As the name implies, this restaurant is not going to score any points on decor or presentation. It…read moreoffers regional dishes like tripe and fish dumplings. I had the later. The execution was on point. The dumplings totally had pike/fish flavor but so light and delicate. However the star is what lies beneath it. The lobster bisque was insanely good and brought added dimension to the dumpling. It was served with scalloped potatoes. I started with the cheese and salad. I never had cottage cheese so fresh and light. No comparison to the one you get in the market. It was whipped with herbs and olive oil with a wonderful mouth feel. The dessert was a let down. A praline tart. I should have gone with the cheese plate, but I wanted to end with something different.
