O Bistrot Vigniode - Ferney-Voltaire

With a pescatarian amongst our group Google pointed us to O Bistro Vigniode, not far from our hotel. What a little gem! Booking via email was uncomplicated; even late in the evening two days prior confirmation came promptly. The atmosphere was welcoming, our waiter (the owner? extremely patient and helpful with explanations and translation matters. The menu was small, but by no means lacking. Entrée, mains and dessert came at a leisurely pace, plating was aesthetic and sophisticated, portion sizes just perfect, and everything was delicious. Thank you for having us. Coming here is a must if you love fish and seafood and visit the area. The only thing I would add as constructive criticism is that social media posts should be more current.

We had the 20 euro lunch menu – very generous portions. When we went we had a choice of seafood starter or chevre miel with green salad, and a choice of two fish for our main course – salmon and swordfish. Both came with accompanying sauces, a creme sauce for the salmon and a soy sauce for the swordfish, and both were well prepared not at all dry or overcooked. The dessert we chose the creme brulee, homemade was a wonderful finish. Very nicely decorated, very friendly staff. One can also order oysters with the meal , but seafood platters can be ordered for special events. The proprietor knows fish, and the chef knows how to cook them.

It was our first visit at this restaurant and I was happy to have discovered it. The menu is small, but the selection is appetizing. The owner is passionate about food and did a good job of explaining the dishes to us. There was a mistake with one of our starters, which the owner corrected right away and went above and beyond to make up for the mix up. I really appreciated the attention to detail, generosity of the owner and staff (They showed very kind gestures as it was my birthday), and the delicious meal we enjoyed. I would recommend this restaurant and would be happy to return to support this local business.

Très belle découverte. La qualité des produits est exceptionnelle et le cuisine sait les mettre en valeurs de l entrer au dessert c'est un sans faute ! N'hésitez pas à découvrir ce petit coin qui mérite de s'y arrêter même 30 mins le tps de déguster un bon vin accompagné d'huîtres.
