La Table D'eliane

This really wonderful restaurant is in a small town next to Thiers and about 10 minutes or less from the autoroute. After Clermont Ferrand and well before St.Etienne, we stop off here every year (a trip we normally make twice a year) while heading south. Lunch time meals are terrific and served in a beautifully renovated restaurant that includes a large outdoor terrace for good weather. Everything we've ever eaten here has been very good. As usual, we almost always take a plat or menu du jour. This time we ate for 49 Euros, which included a glass of wine for me and dessert. If you should be near here at lunch time, it's well worth driving off the autoroute to eat at Eliotel. You will NOT regret making the small detour!

Very very bad experience with this restaurant. Reservation for a baptism with visit to the restaurant and taking orders for menu and number of people. 4 months later to tell us that it will not be possible 10 days before D-Day. Without a call from them of course. We called tirelessly for explanations to no avail. We managed to get to reception where we found a horrible, uncaring woman who absolutely did not work properly. She should go to the employment center and let the professionals work. Because she doesn't know the word work. All this to offer us a Carrefour caterer but what a shame.

Still, we think, an impressive work in progress, this three part hotel restaurant part classically styled, part lighter and brighter and part outside under parasols proved a delight when we visited for dinner. Select the area that suits your mood. It's frequented by hotel visitors and locals alike which suggests it's of good quality and acceptably priced. We found the service excellent but not overpowering, the food unusual enough to be interesting and the portions on the right side of adequate. Overall a lovely ambience. Pink Palace? You'll work it out when you get there!

french traditional and local food nicely served : ham delicatessen, beef, cheese, mushrooms... Auvergne wine is less remarkable.
