Restaurant Le Sauvage has stood out among all other restaurants I’ve visited in France. Through and through, the experience here was great. While I later learned that I made my reservation time too early, as the restaurant really started to fill up at 20h, the service and the food was still top notch, despite us being just the second group to sit down. For my appetizer I got the foie gras, which when eaten with the other elements of the dish, is one of the best bites of food I’ve had in my life. For my main course I ordered the poached fish, which was incredibly tender and excellently plated. And for dessert, I ordered the “chocolat chaud,” which was also shockingly fantastic, combining warm cake, hot chocolate, ice cream, and a chocolate tuile. The restaurant itself is exactly what you expect from a fancy French restaurant, clean, elegant and organized. Overall, the meal was fantastic, and for what I received, I’m inclined to say a good deal. For this caliber of food, €59 for 3 courses is incredibly reasonable, especially considering the price of a comparable dinner elsewhere, such as at a Michelin starred restaurant. My only critique would be the presentation of the chocolat chaud, whose plating, just doesn’t prepare you for just how good it will taste, unlike the other dishes. While I do understand the intent of the mug, being recessed into it and combined with the bulkiness of the mug, doesn’t add up for me personally. But this is a small grievance, and Le Sauvage is a fantastic experience, and l can’t see a world where I don’t come back.

This is a hotel restaurant to which we would like to return.  The hotel and rooms are beautiful and the evening meal was delicious and served in a busy atmospheric dining room. Even at the booking stage the team were very friendly and understanding and even the chef was very warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Le Sauvage.

This restaurant (and the hotel it is in) was an absolutely fantastic find for us. The menu offers really interesting options with a major focus on local and seasonal produce. All our dishes were perfectly prepared, and at 55 € for three excellently prepared courses, with amuse-bouche before, it is very fair value for money.

It's a magic place!

The building host both the restaurant and the hotel of the same name. It on the border of the Besançon's old city, right below the 17th-century fortress called La Citadelle, one of the finest masterpieces of military architecture from The military engineer Vauban. The city center is at 10 minutes walk.

The history of the building itself is incredible, but let's go back to the restaurant. The parcel is on a slope, with a private great garden in front of the building, which means you only see the trees of the garden and the forest on the other side of the valley.
If you are lucky to have good weather, you can even eat on the terrasse (see the picture).

The food was really great. I have started with a foie-gras very well balanced with rest of the side dish. We had then a prefectly cooked beef with a very tasty sauce. The dessert was also at the same great level. We were lucky also with the wine choice: a strong Pouillac that matched the beef very well.

We have spent 3 days in Besançon and visited other high rated restaurants. The quality was quite high everywhere, but this one is clearly a step above!

If I come back to Besançon in the future, hotel and best restaurant are already chosen!

Thanks Le Sauvange!
