La Villa

We came for our son's 18th birthday. very good reception and friendly. The Iberian ham and its crunchy gamba were just to fall... and to say the little sauce that accompanies this dish that makes the urge for sauce....oups the good manners say it's not done at the restaurant... but when it's good... we can do it...: The piece of ox from Argentina was succulent accompanied by a purée to the truffle!!! And for chocolate lovers, dessert was perfect!! As for the wine map, we were received by a passionate sommelier: Beautiful map with safe values such as Domaine Gramenon and a beautiful selection of Languedoc. Thanks for making this family event perfect.

The Villa turned out to be an unexpected surprise. It's co-located with the Mercure hotel in Saint Cloud, and many locals frequent the establishment. It has some of the best traditional French cuisine around. Dinner isn't served until 7:30 pm, but I dined there two evenings during my trip. The maitr'de serves double duty as the only server, so it can be a bit slow when it gets busy. Set aside at least two hours for dinner and enjoy the experience. It also happens to serve the breakfast for hotel guests. It's pretty much the same every day but includes a wide variety of foods to suit many pallets and diet needs. It includes eggs (poached and scrambled), bacon, sausage, pancakes and crepes. There's an assortment of fruits, cheeses, cold cuts and three cold cereals with numerous toppings available. They also have yogurt, five or six different breads and pastries and multiple chilled juices and hot coffee. The dinner menu is limited to whatever the chef has concocted for the day. There's usually a meat and a fish and vegetable offering. The first evening I started with a salad of simple dressed greens and a piece of toasted multigrain bread topped with cream cheese, smoked salmon, roasted tomatoes, thin slices of apple and tangerine. An unusual but surprisingly tasty combination. The main dish was roasted lamb served with perfectly fried pomme frittes. The lamb was a little on the tough side, but tasty and well presented. At the suggestion of the waiter, I paired the meal with a 2017 Minervois called Riussanelle. The coffee and current notes went very well with the dinner, and was so good I enjoyed it with my meal the second evening as well. That included vegetable egg rolls, roasted vegetables and a cut of lean steak that was quite tough by American standards. The dessert was a pastry with custard and a slice fig. Apparently the chef was feeling generous and creative because the waiter walked out at least two other complimentary desserts for every table that evening. Why go out for good food when it's right in front of you. I will definitely return here again.

Visited for Valentine's Day. This is the restaurant of the Mercure hotel. Excellent cuisine, quick and attentive service. On the other hand, the room is much too bright, it lacked romanticism.Côté mercury, on top of the normal season (it made a hair too hot)

Very good restaurant that offers dishes inspired by seasonal products and where once a month you can enjoy a beautiful buffet brunch. Very welcoming and available staff.
