le Nénuphar - La Neuveville

Great service, great food. I tried to quote a few places in the neighbourhood, and that's the best so far!

Very nicely presented eating, which is also very good at the palate, but only not until standard one would expect from the menu, the trips and the presentation. the decoration and the lights are also not the standard. the video is...wonderful as the service.

We have chosen le nenuphar by trip advisor. we parked our car at the train station la neuveville and went for minutes along the shores of the beautiful biel lake to work an appetit. we arrived without reservation, but were immediately shown a table. adjacent to the bar. we were asked if we wanted an apertitif. we said yes and received a selection of weeps from which we should choose, but only weep. we have selected three glasses of local wine from la neuveville. the waitress brought our wine glasses, but took away the water glasses. we had no water before or during the meal and I developed a headache by dehydration. I would expect a restaurant to use this quality water. the waitress suffered from an overload of nervous energy. she was constantly struggling around the restaurant, sitting, reorganizing empty tables, changing the table settings, candles, replacement glasses and changes behind the bar. my companion observed that she must be exhausted when she finishes the work for the evening. but fortunately she didn't seem about her customers. we were very hungry and had drunk wein on empty likes. Our wine glasses have been emptied for a long time. the restaurant was empty in this phase, but we spent more than exhausting minutes to catch their attention. At some point, she saw me throwing and came by. I stressed that we were very hungry. she brought the special blackboard. I am surprised that there were only three dishes for selection and that they produced a printed menu involuntarily. the escaped consisted only of three salates, so we decided to move directly to the main courses. we ordered a bottle of wine with our meal that was made immediately. the waitress poured the wine without asking us to try it first. we drank empty stomachs again. By now a large group of bar was assembled, drinking glasses of wine before they table. they were loud and moved around and stormed over us as we sat on our table. I felt overlooked and unnoticed by the constant suffling behind my back. the remaining tables of the restaurants were empty. finally our food was served. In the meantime, I had a split headache, which may partly by drinking on an empty one, partly due to lack of water and partly due to the loud amount that throttled behind my chair. I almost asked the waitress if we could move tables that I should have done. that was exquisite. we had three different meal times and all reported about delicate and mouth-watering aromes. but now I was so ravenous and so disturbed that I could not enjoy eating. I locked the food. the loud crowd behind me had fortunately sat on one table on the other side of the restaurant and it was peaceful. the waitress brought us the dessert menu. we chose desserts and talked about coffee. but another amount began to gather at the bar behind my chair, and the waitress has now turned the tables and sits immediately to the left of us. when the waitress was asked for our dessert selections, we rejected desserts and coffees and fled from the restaurant. stressed, alarmed and with a knocking head I went back minutes at the shore of the lake to the railway station parking. the walk was very soothing; beautiful lights flickered over the smooth surface of the lake from the villages opposite. we went to the train station and drank coffee. the manager greeted us with a pleasant and soothing banter; then we sat comfortably and peacefully and drank our coffee. we spent chf for glasses wein, main courses and a bottle wein. the exquisite eating, beautifully presented, justified the prices. but to these trips I expected that the waiting staff treated me with respect and consideration. I do not expect that I will be sent from a restaurant with nerve a-jangle and a splitting headache, after paying these prizes. I'm sorry for the cook that was so disappointed by his colleagues.

We selected Le Nenuphar from Trip Advisor. We parked our car at La Neuveville station and walked for 15 minutes along the shore of the beautiful Lake Biel, to work up an appetite. We arrived without a reservation, but were immediately shown to a table adjacent to the bar.We were asked if we wanted an apertitif. We said yes and were given a choice of wines, from which to choose, but only wine. We selected three glasses of local wine from La Neuveville. The waitress brought our glasses of wine, but took away the water glasses. We had no water before or during the meal - and I developed a splitting headache through dehydration. I would expect a restaurant of this quality to serve water.The waitress was suffering from an overload of nervous energy. She flitted constantly around the restaurant, adjusting seats, rearranging empty tables, changing the table settings, lighting candles, replacing glasses and making changes behind the bar. My companion observed that she must be exhausted, when she finishes work for the evening. BUT she seemed blissfully unaware of her customers. We were very hungry and had been drinking wine on empty stomachs. Our wine glasses had long been emptied. The restaurant was empty at this stage, yet we spent more than 15 exhausting minutes, trying to catch her attention. Eventually she saw me waving at her and came over. I underlined that we were VERY hungry. She brought over the specials blackboard. I expressed surprise that there were only three dishes to choose from and she reluctantly produced a printed menu. The entrees consisted only of three salads, so we decided to move straight to main courses. We ordered a bottle of wine with our meal, which was produced immediately. The waitress poured the wine, without inviting us to taste it first. We were again drinking on empty stomachs.Meanwhile a large group was assembling by the bar, drinking glasses of wine before taking their table.. They were noisy and moving around, towering over us, as we were seated at our table. I felt overlooked and unnerved by the constant shuffling behind my back. The remaining tables of the restaurant were empty.At last our food was served. By now I had a splitting headache, caused partly by drinking on an empty stomach, partly by lack of water and partly by the noisy crowd thronging behind my chair. I nearly asked the waitress if we could move tables - I should have done.The food was exquisite. We had three different meals and everyone reported delicate and mouth-watering flavours. By now, however, I was so ravenous and so distressed, that I was unable to enjoy the food. I bolted down the food.The noisy crowd behind me thankfully had sat down at a table across the other side of the restaurant and it was peaceful. The waitress brought us the dessert menu. We chose desserts and were talking about coffee. But another crowd began gathering at the bar behind my chair and the waitress was now rearranging the tables and seats immediately to the left of us. When the waitress came to ask for our dessert choices, we declined desserts and coffees and fled the restaurant.Stressed, distressed and with a pounding head, I walked back 15 minutes along the shore of the lake to the station car park. The walk was very calming; beautiful lights flickered across the smooth surface of the lake from the villages opposite. We went into the station cafe and drank coffees. The manager greeted us with pleasant and reassuring banter; then we sat comfortably and peacefully and drank our coffees.We spent CHF 152 on 3 glasses of wine, 3 main courses and a bottle of wine. The exquisite food, beautifully presented, justified the prices. But at these prices, I expected the waiting staff to treat me with respect and consideration. I don't expect to be sent out of a restaurant with nerves a-jangle and a splitting headache, after paying these prices. I feel sorry for the chef, who was so let down by his colleagues.
