Les Planches - Tisch reservieren

Not an easy place to review. We passed by on our barge and as it looked like a pleasant place we called and made a reservation.Then we checked out the T/A reviews which to be honest alarmed us - as there was a pretty even distribution of all reviews including the average, poor and terrible. we were quite put off by these but in the end decided to check it out for ourselves.Everyone has their own experience so we can only vouch for how our lunch went.It was a Sunday lunch so quite busy.Starting with the service - Absolutely no complaints, from being seated we were offered aperatifs quickly, orders take swiftly and served in good time. Our Waitress was particularly pleasant, warm and friendly so a bit tick there!The menu was fine though perhaps a little limited but enough for us to make a good choice. We both had the tuna tataki with guacamole which was perfectly presented and very tasty. For mains we had the seches ( cuttlefish) served with baked vegetables, Presentation was OK without being special but the seches was tender and again very tasty. Desserts were simple but again fine - strawberry and raspberry salad and mixed sorbets for my wife.The set menu was 33 euro pp and in my view a little expensive for the style, type and quality maybe 5 - 7 euros over priced? Mineral water (Chateldon) was expensive at 8 euros a bottle and similarly an expresso coffee at 2.50 was well over priced. Add a beer and a glass of wine plus a 38 euro bottle of wine and the total came to 124 euros. So overall quite expensive for the meal but it was a lovely setting, the service was very good and the food perfectly fine. If T/A had a category for Good I'd rate it above average and good.Make your own minds up but we weren't disappointed.

Perhaps 10 people arriving after lunch on our Sunday partially explains the 2 hour ordeal that was lunch. Or perhaps they liked us so much that they wanted us to stay for supper. In case, whatever pluses were there because of food (it was decent) and atmosphere (it was pleasant) and the proximity to where we were staying was lost by the non service. I think I would still be there if we hadn't retrieved our own menus and went to the bar to pay bill. Sorry but there are likely far better places to spend 400 euros for lunch.

Along the river Saone this is an unpretentious place which serves the best fried fish and freshest frog legs around Lyon. Do not expect much more as this is the specialty and people will drive kms just to eat the two dishes. However you can find a nice piece of lamb or a good fish on the menu.Very good and friendly service. Wooden tables and chairs, simple tablecloths but you can eat right along the water looking at the swans on the river

We ate lunch at Les Planches on a beautiful warm sunny day. This made the wonderful setting right at the edge of the river Saone so special. The food did not quite match our expectations but it was nonetheless good. The stand out dishes were the frogs legs and the pulled pork. Portions were small and prices high but we enjoyed it. It is the ideal spot for a sunny lunch or a romantic evening.

Wonderful position by the water, we used to come here most weeks before it became Les Planches, which, right from the beginning was too 'm'as-tu vu' with indifferent food. With new ownership we tried it again, but again, it's not to our taste. It's IDEAL for the young set - a wonderful setting.
