Restaurant de La Chaux-d'Abel

We visited the restaurant twice in the past and we were pleasantly surprised. But this time it was different, the map is very small, few wines. I was irritated and I got the impression that the owner had to change. And yes, unfortunately I was right as I found out after our visit. It is no longer the same, lost to quality and choice. Also the foie grass plate was very small as you can see on the photo for 22 . We'll be back.

The food was only decent, but very expensive (46. for a car with ratatouille, sold as « vegetables of the season » and no rice or whatever on the side. The frite fraîches (not sure what that means! were sold 10th and not very nice.

By TripAdvisor, this restaurant got my attention and as we walked in the region during the day, we decided to book a table. There are two sections. The on the right side, the less elegant, bistro as and the to the left, which has a lot of style and ambience. The food card is the same. We choose a table to the left and we enjoyed a nice dinner from an appetizer to the main dish to dessert. Everything was very beautifully presented and cooked. Service was also on the very good side. The food is not typical of the many other average restaurants. It is much closer to a French restaurant with foie grass, salad with hot cheese, entrecôte with French fries etc. It is not cheap, but also not super expensive. A clear recommendation!

We are used to exceptional cuisine and there we are more than amazed with what is presented. From the starters to the desserts, we are never deceived. The quality of the food and presentation are just way beyond expectations. Worthy of a 5 star hotel. You get what you pay for. Next visit is...

This is definitely one if the greatest place you can chose for a tasty break. The place is nice, relaxing and well decorated... Lost in the middle of nowhere, back to the roots ! The food is just delicious by its tastes and simplicity.
