"What more can you expect from a mid range price restaurant? Great food, great wine and good service in a warm and cozy atmosphere! The 25€ menu was worth the travel. No fancy dishes for sure, but plain good food."
It’s a mixed bag for me. We ordered the course menu of euros. On the one side, they serve some interesting entrees and amuses but the main course (fish) was dry, uninteresting and a too big of a portion in relation to the...entire menu. And would have like more vegetables. The entree of foie gras with a creme brulee and roasted duck was delicious. The cod rilette was delicious too. The cheeses were local and tasty. But the dessert was just a simple stack of meringues, ice cream (not homemade) and whipped cream. The staff was very friendly, even though they hardly speak any English, they still tried their best. The atmosphere is nice and casual. Clearly popular among families. Tip; reserve a...
Went to this lovely, unpretentious restaurant on a Saturday recently, 10th June, with my wife and a friend. The fixed price menu at 25euro for was excellent value, smoked cold meet salad to start, perfectly flavoured, rabbit in white wine in pastry or fish (hake) as main, both excellent, dessert or cheese selection, great value in wines (do not miss local Jura varieties). Of course there is much else on the a la carte menu but we could not fault our choices. Lons le Saunier is a great town to visit with some beautiful villages and hiking trails nearby. Do try to come here if you are touring this beautiful region and check out this restaurant if you can.
On our way back from the Provence we saw this restaurant on tripadvisor. It opens its doors at that was very convenient for us at that time (most restaurants open at The staff was very friendly and helpfull. Also a kind attitude towards...dogs! The food is really fine cuisine and nicely put on the plates. Nice rosé wine of their region, très sympa! The prices were surprisingly okay for such a high standard food, you can have a main course for that is surely okay compaired to Belgian prices. Delicious and not to plain desserts! Quick service. Definitely an ideal diner place on you way home from the Provence! Thumbs up!
An interesting carte if they could cook it. We did not want a large meal so avoided the menus. Amuse bouche of dressed fish ok. Morilles starter (€29!) lacked flavour. Main course rabbit was bitty and dry with an uninspired sauce. My fillet of beef was rare, as ordered, but lacked finesse in both cooking and saucing. Desserts, ordered before the limitations were known, were an inedible mix of tomato and ice cream and a fruit tart with ice cream rather than the specified sorbet. With 2 half bottles of wine total was €140.50. I paid in full but expressed some dissatisfaction - this was met aggressively.

The restaurant offered a euro menu for that day. I chose the menu because I thought it must be fresh. Mise en bouche was a meniscal glass of something like colored soap, the main dish was a few pieces of pork on top of...something slimy (could have been mash potatoes) and included two peas and two small string beans. I was looking forward to the dessert which was to be a strawberry milkshake but it was nothing like a milkshake. Imagine cleaning up a milkshake glass and using the wash as the dessert base with a wafer as decoration. I returned the dessert and I got a bad stomach from the food.
We spent a long weekend in the department of Jura. The name of the restaurant sounded like a promise and we gave it a try. After a hearty welcome, we were already served a greeting from the chef. The menu is varied and every dish was prepared with attention and high standard.The wine (Trousseau, a marvel from the region) was excellent and more than reasonable in price.I you spend a day or two in the region, go there!
I'm so glad I stumbled over Le Grain de Sel when was strolling around, looking for a place to eat my lunch. I was immediately attracted by the look of the restaurant and the menu. I must say that everything was better than I expected. The food was delicious and the staff went out of their way to satisfy me, e.g. by having me taste two wines before ordering a single glass. Well done!
We had the Menu at which was acceptable but not inspired. But the decor was old-fashioned and the atmosphere was cold and not very welcoming. We were the only people in the restaurant and it was a public holiday in May which may have...accounted for the lack of customers. But the experience did not make us want to return.

While the service is OK, the "cuisine" is let's say average, not more. The choice is limited with 2 different menus, 24 and 36€ and a very light carte. My filet de boeuf and wine sauce was not the best I have had, the beef was nervous and the wine sauce, .... bof, bof, bof. So, not recommended
What more can you expect from a mid range price restaurant? Great food, great wine and good service in a warm and cozy atmosphere! The 25€ menu was worth the travel. No fancy dishes for sure, but plain good food.
