Nice food in a may be too classic atmosphere. Extreme attention to details but the portions were minuscule and the wine pairing with local wines was not worth it. We enjoyed it but ended up hungry even though we went for the long menu. I don’t think it is worth it but may be it was because our expectations were so high.

A wonderful tasting menu that was both delicious and inventive, accompanied by top-tier hospitality and attention to detail. Located inside a stunning hotel that is worth exploring before or after your meal. Highlights were the cherne dish and the corn taco dessert, though not a single bad dish in the whole menu. Thank you to the entire staff. Highly recommended.
