Brasserie de Montbenon - Lausanne

Very pleasant for a night with friends. lively mood. a place that was liked by tourist and local. good food, good wine. next to the regular menu, the chef prepares a few specialities daily. average prices. internal and external seats. the terrace has a great view over the lake. make sure they book a table in advance. ok.

Fantastic view and ambiente. had lunchtime w friends flat-stare, ausspargel salat, rosvioli, torts of earthy and lemon and rhabarb crushed. all delicious!

We had to wait around 30 minutes for a waiter to even vome to the table. After prdering 6 hot chocolates we waited another +20 minutes only to get some specialty chocolate that only tasted like cinnamon and milk. Afterwards we got to ask 6 times for the tab, overpriced and underwhelming experience. Pretty place though.

Avoid, the setting is magnificent, however the cuisine really leaves something to be desired, both in terms of quantity, quality and prices used. Despite having a starter and a main course each, we finished the meal feeling really hungry. The ingredients are quality, but the cuisine is really not extraordinary and in no way justifies the prices used. Too bad, another brasserie which has lost its identity and which claims to be gastronomic.

I came to eat with a friend for the first time at 1:15 p.m. on the terrace because I had many comments, particularly from former employees, about the quality of the food and the service, but I might as well tell you that the service was more than pitiful and the word is weak. The waiter in green shorts took 20 minutes to take our order, we asked him for information about the dishes which was apparently too much because he blew it off with no explanation. We got the starters first before even getting the drinks. When cashing out I had no questions regarding the meal if everything went well leaving a tip in addition it would be a question of saying thank you at least which is the basis of politeness. Being in the business, I was surprised to see customer service like that. However, the quality of the food and the presentation of the plates was excellent, there is nothing to complain about there.
