L'armancon - Chailly-sur-Armançon

The dining room is as you would expect for a fine dining experience. The 4 courses we had were all of high quality presented well. I particularly liked the cod main dish. Service was also ok. The wine list was extensive a little pricy.

Very professional somelier, well informed and reliable recommendations for the wine choice. Perfect foiegras with interesting chutney. The poulet fermier could be more interesting. I wasn't happy with the choice of the main course. Quite intriguing fromage, but fromage a day before in Saint-Sabine was by far more impressive.

You know when a restaurant is aiming to get their star because the service is beyond impeccable. The gluten free bread was waiting for me on the table before arriving warm) all the dishes and amuse bouche were made to adapt me. I would if I have to be picky to do something more creative for the desserts. However the chef and the staff did an amazing job bravo

While staying at the hotel we sampled the gastronomic restaurant, locate din the main building. The room in itself is nice, and waiters were kind, even though looking a bit tensed. This may be explained by screams and shouts overheard from the nearby kitchen, which set the tone for the dinner. Though I understand kitchens are somehow battle places, having it as a background for dinner was far from my idea of a great experience. So about food. The place is trying hard to make it a gastronomic experience, which it could seem for inexperienced guests, but actually falls flat. Starter with snails ravioli and gambas, topped with mined tomatoes. Why not? But actually everything was rather tasteless. Followed by a white fish, again good quality (though undercooked), but again little to no taste. I would definitely not say people are not trying, but overall one would advise to cover the basics or propose a local, robust menu well mastered rather than move to more creative which has little to no interest. Expensive? Actually yes for the result. Worth going? Probably not

I've been coming to Chailly to play golf since 2003. The food was always very good with occasional mediocre dishes. What I never liked was the atmosphere in the restaurant. This year they have refurbished the restaurant with great taste and the food was impeccable. Great improvement. I had goose liver with scollops as a starter and an out of this world fillet Charolais as the main course. Both excellent in taste and presentation. The other dishes were very good but not special. The only minor complaint is the service, which is not always as attentive as it should be. The bistro at the hotel is also very good and is great for lunch on the Terrasse overlooking the golf course
