    Great place - highly recommended. Small with limited seating but we were able to get a table without a reservation. Food was excellent - light, but very flavorful. Staff was very friendly and our server made some excellent recommendations for pairing wine with our order. Would definitely return.

    I spent about 2 weeks traveling in Germany, Switzerland and France. This was hands down the BEST food during that entire time. The gracious and good looking waiter recommended my glass of white wine, he made the perfect selection- Ladoix 1er Cru Les Gréchons. Cauliflower soup, steamed cod and a rich chocolate cake, wow, I wish I could describe each delicious bite. Thank you, L'ardoise, for an unforgettable dinner.

    An Unforgettable Palette: Discovering L'Ardoise in Beaune: Nestled within the cobbled pathways of Beaune, a quaint town synonymous with refined culinary tradition and vinicultural excellence, resides the charming L’Ardoise. A visit to this enchanting bistro is more than just a meal—it's an unmissable narrative of Beaune's gastronomic heritage, making it a high recommendation for any discerning traveler. As you cross the threshold of L’Ardoise, the quaint charm of the restaurant envelops you, setting the stage for a memorable dining adventure. The staff, with a blend of professionalism and warm hospitality, guides you to your seat, subtly promising an evening of attentive service. The culinary tale begins with a plate of tender ravioli, each morsel bearing the echo of age-old culinary traditions. The allure of the next course, thinly sliced beef, epitomizes the chef’s deft hand and the rich bounty of the local terroirs. The melody of textures and flavors in each bite is a tribute to Beaune's pastoral simplicity yet sophisticated culinary ethos. The journey continues through a series of delightful courses, each a testament to the region’s bountiful produce, creatively and thoughtfully crafted to enthrall the palate. The dishes are not merely food, but a canvas where the season's freshest offerings are painted in a myriad of flavors. As the evening draws to a close, the grandeur of dessert takes the stage. 'Orange 4 Ways' isn’t just a sweet ending, it’s a crescendo of citrus celebration that dances between sweet, tangy, and zesty realms. It's an ode to the versatility of simple ingredients crafted with imagination and finesse. No narrative of Beaune would be complete without a poetic mention of wine. The wine list at L'Ardoise is a curated odyssey through lush vineyards, both local and beyond, each glass a perfect companion to the unfolding culinary narrative. L’Ardoise is more than a dining spot; it's a rendezvous with Beaune's rich culinary and vinicultural tapestry. The amalgam of heartwarming hospitality, imaginative cuisine, and a captivating ambiance makes it not just a meal, but a cherished chapter in your Beaune journey. The memory of L’Ardoise is not one to fade quickly; it’s a melody that lingers, urging a reprise with every recall. This isn’t merely a restaurant; it’s a must-visit cornerstone for every epicurean venturing through Beaune.

    Absolutely superb. The service was first class from both our waiters. The food was well presented and full of flavour. The wine they recommended was also excellent. Wish we had room to try desert. Very reasonable pricing as well offering great value for high end food.

    3.7S **** Side note, the Royal Kir here was a bit lackluster, also service took for-e-ver despite the restaurant being not very full. The starter, while very pretty, didn't have a very interesting flavor profile. It wasn't bad, just a tad disappointing. The main was okay, nothing more. The first dessert was okay as well, it didn't pack the punch that I expected and felt a bit lacking. The second dessert on the other hand, thank goodness I ordered it, because it was truly special. Such rich and complex flavors, a real treat through and through. That dessert singlehandedly boosted my experience to a 4 star total, so good on ya'.

    I don’t think this is a bad restaurant, but I did have the steamed cod that tasted putrid, like ammonia. The taste was so strong I got my friend to taste it and she agreed that it tasted sour. They were nice enough to offer a replacement (which I no longer had appetite for) and took the cost off the bill. The eggs in white wine sauce was nice though, and my friend’s duck breast was flavorful. I think it might be good to tread carefully if fish is your choice here.

    Standard prix fixe fare for Beaune - the food is is “just ok”, but what’s more notable is that the service was chilly / bordering on unfriendly and the room atmosphere generic. Seems very over-rated relative to google reviews. There are better choices in Beaune.

👍👍 Food was a solid 7/10. Not everything tasted fresh but it was still good enough for me. Our waiter (Raf) was an amazing guy! He was very friendly and polite, even though it was quite a busy evening he was there when we needed him. The restaurant looked nice and clean. I will recommend the restaurant...
