"Nice little terrace. Sweet waitstaff. I did have some issues with this place and dinner. Ordered a medium rare butchers choice steak and it came medium well. Person didn't check if everything was okay until 15 min in. Was served the wrong dish Fish was cooked nice, slightly flavorless. There were motion activated lamps that suddenly would light up really bright when people walked past. In total the food was average both me and my partner would rate the food and experience about 5.5/10 It was a bit frustrating as we went for a birthday celebration but this place has potential but currently not there yet."

"The meal is simply excellent. We took the evening menu and the house cocktail. well presented, the dishes are copied and the taste is just perfect. Thanks to the leader!Côté points negative (from which the 3/5): we had to stay 2h30, the service was very long. The dish came almost cold. According to our table neighbors (who seemed accustomed) this never happens...Punctual problem? I don't know. I'll get my chance to check and maybe put a 5/5."

"One our 3rd night in Cognac, we decided to have something a little less French, so opted for this Thai. The place is a "blink and you will miss it" type of location, as we had walked past it twice and not noticed it!! It is locate close to the public gardens of Cognac and near the castle. It is quite small and has a very limited menu, compared to the Thai places we have been to before, however, we found the quality of the food to be excellent.We had spring rolls and papaya salad for starters and both were a "taste sensation". Main courses were a chicken coconut curry and chicken fried rice, again, we were not disappointed with the quality.My only criticisms would be the lack of a more extensive menu, e.g. side dishes, and perhaps a translated menu would have been an asset (considering this is a town that caters for a wide variety of nationalities in tourism) and the lack of atmosphere in that there was no music playing and this made the place very quiet. The final bill for the two of us with drinks was €75, which is not the cheapest, but then I have found most Thai restaurants to be of this price range!"

"beautiful establishment, well decorated room in a chic bourgeois style, pleasant patio with exposed stones and fountain. professional staff, attentive to the client. service of standing: the composition of the dishes is indicated, individual breads to choose from, picking of the crumbs, white tablecloths. several wines with glass at 5€: good white Charente and good rosé Provence. 1st menu at 32€ (or 27€ with flat or flat-dessert). Amuse-bouche served even without aperitif (3 for each) a pre-entrance. In the entrance we chose the langoustines (with pistachio oil and melon/serrano tartare), then in flat the back of cod mousseline fennel and radish, for dessert the gourmet coffee and the Paris-Brest. Disappointing desserts: in the gourmet coffee, the macaron's hull was dry and the Paris-Brest cabbage paste had not been lifted, it was flat and the cream had a hot blow it would seem. little taste elsewhere. It's too bad. even the mignardises offered after dessert were disappointing (mini dulled not very aesthetic and mini coconut rock dry). otherwise in the menu at 32€ it is for its money. We'll be back one night hoping the flat on the desserts will have been fixed. possibility to buy the wine bottles served at the restaurant."

"The good reviews keep coming and deservedly so, though with caveats. Firstly the food we received was great, considering it’s just one chef preparing for a dozen or so tables its very well managed. The duck breast was possibly the nicest we’ve all tasted….but there’s the first caveat, we all had to have the same dish as the menu is tiny, choice is not what you come here to receive. Two main dishes, my allergies only meant I could eat the duck, and my wife and children only wanted the duck. We all had duck. The waitress/hostess was also sadly lacking in a friendly air and actually made me feel rather uncomfortable that we’d brought our children here for lunch – she also attempted to charge full price for the children’s food, admittedly there isn’t a children’s food option but the portions were half the size so full price was an unnecessary attempt in my opinion. Would I return? I’m glad I’ve been and would recommend others to visit – but no, I wouldn’t return. There aren’t many options in Cognac but the good ones I would say are better if you have children."
