My family and I were in Nancy on 26 Dec 2018. We found this restaurant near our hotel and Place Stanislas using Google map, and decided to have our dinner there. We asked our hotel to help us reserve a table as the staff who took reservations was not very fluent in English. We were expecting a rather snooty service on arrival. To our pleasant surprise, the staff at the restaurant were really friendly. There was one particularly bubbly server who was fluent in English at the restaurant, and she helped us with our order. From past reviews, there were several complaints of very slow service, but we did not experience it when we were there, much to our relief! I can't remember exactly what we ordered, but we enjoyed almost every single dish, except the frog legs starter, which we thought was rather bland and tasteless. The beef in the mains was really succulent and delicious, and my sons particularly enjoyed the 'Toblerone' tiramisu desert. We found the prices quite reasonable for the amount of food we ordered.

Very tasty food (we had menu for 26 Euro and it was truly amazing!), however I cannot give 5 stars due to a bit slow service - we have been waiting good 30 minutes for each main dish and dessert. But still, highly recommended!
