"the price (58 euros), modicum for a tasting menu of the region, and the flat foie gras escalopes are all that saves the old mill. the selection of wines at the glass of the restaurant is very limited and included the only glass of positively bad wine that I had for nearly two weeks of hiking in the area. The dishes were incoherent - the foie gras was pretty good, the risotto was correct but not memorable and the calf was noticeably weak. In particular, the service was broken and generally poor, apparently because of inexperience. there did not seem to be dedicated servers for an individual table, but rather all service staff working on an ad hoc basis for all tables, which means that the overall service was often inattentive. a particular server, apparently the youngest, pulled several dishes without explaining what they were and quickly fled. Since one was a fly amuse that had not been explained before and another was an unknown substitute for a menu item that did not correspond to a food restriction, I had to guess. the oldest member, who might have been the owner or manager, was busy discussing with friends at another table for much of the evening. At the old mill is worth the detour if you stay at the adjoining hotel or if other options are closed for the evening, but otherwise it is missed without regret."
