Went here for breakfast and then returned for dinner. Best coffee and omelette after third trip to Vietnam. Salmon on toast and seafood gratin entrees were excellent. Cordon blea chicken - a large serving , well presented , slightly dry to my taste. Good home made icecream. Sampled two red wines and both were excellent and inexpensive. Menu too cumbersome,...

The rating of this restaurant is certainly for me verry overestimated. the owner of this restaurant is a litlle bit to commercial and he want only to eat you those things that he likes to sell. The chicken cordon bleu is maybe big enough for 3 people but not very tasty.At the end the restaurant is build inside like a... More

The friendly owner served us personally. Gorgeous food, advise you to try "Parmentier de filet d’autruche" and "Diots de Savoie maison au vin blanc et oignons" (Saucisses pur porc dans leur sauce). Thanks Pierre for a lovely evening.

This was a difficult place to sore. Some elements were a four to five whilst others were a three. If I could i would score it a 3.5. On the night we went we were the only diners, the host and waitress were more concerned with the Internet than they were with us. The air con was not on so... More

My gf and I went for a late night snack at Refuge. We were met with a smile and a 'ça va?' (loosely translated to how's everything or everything ok?). The owner, a french gentlemen, took our order of a tartiflette to share with a smile. the thirst was put out with a cold Orangina and a Ricard pastis, just... More

Had the pork chops. It was served in a cream sauce and covered with bacon. For me, anything this rich is yummy. Meal also included vegetables, potatoes and a small baguette. Small restaurant so service is on the spot. A little pricey, but when you figure in all the included sides, well worth it. Wish I had more time as... More

We had the chicken cordon bleu and pork chops. Both meals were excellent - presentation, quality, and taste. The service from Dimitri was also great.

This is an interesting place. The omni-present owner, Dimitri, runs the restaurant with his Vietnamese wife. It is a tiny place - like a small log cabin - in which Dimitri's extrovert personality rules supreme. There are only 5 tables with a maximum capacity of around 20 people. Clearly at least one customer writing for Trip Advisor found the owner... More
