Why Travelers Love Le Chantecler

Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.

4.5 / 5.0(294 reviews)

We were slightly concerned going into the evening after reading some recent not flattering reviews but we are happy to report these concerns were misplaced. Our experience was exceptional in every way. This includes the food, wine the service, the piano music and even the bathroom. From the amuse-bouche to the mignardises with its happy wedding anniversary wishes, we enjoyed every dish on the 5 course menu. The young, enthusiastic staff took great care of us and we want to give special recognition to our adorable sommelier who was a joy to speak with. We did enjoy the pianist but can understand why some reviewers did not appreciate his selections. Actually you are provided with a list of popular songs to choose from for requests. It worked for us as the list included the song that was our first dance at our wedding, which again, we were celebrating the anniversary of. So we really enjoyed the music and it made the atmosphere more fun, less formal. The bathroom is up a stairway but it is an elegant stairway and we felt the bathrooms were quite nice. We are very happy we chose Le Chantecler and are looking forward to the day we can return. My husband and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary at Le Chantecler and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. We opted for the 5-course "Chant des Saveurs" menu and every dish was a delight. The service was excellent from start to finish, with attentive and knowledgeable staff. The wine pairings were very well-chosen and complemented each course perfectly. A special highlight of the evening was when the piano player was kind enough to play one of our wedding songs for us. It made the celebration even more personal and memorable. We had heard some mixed reviews about the food, but we completely disagree. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. We found the flavors to be sophisticated and unique, and it's clear the chef and her team are incredibly talented. I suppose it's true what they say: to each their own! The atmosphere was elegant and the attention to detail was impeccable, even down to the clean and well-maintained restroom facilities. We highly recommend Le Chantecler for a special occasion. It was a perfect evening and we will cherish the memory of our anniversary dinner there. Exceptional Dining Experience. The restaurant offers a wonderful ambiance and a very welcoming team. Our four-hour meal was a journey through beautifully prepared dishes. The ingredient combinations were both surprising and delightful. Our group sampled the a la carte menu, the 8-course tasting menu, and the 5-course tasting menu. The pacing of each course and the palate cleansers in between were well-timed. The staff ensured everyone felt included by offering extra small plates to those with fewer courses. The unexpected birthday desserts at the end were a delicious surprise. I would certainly recommend this Michelin-starred restaurant.

Lovely dining room. Part of the Negressco hotel. Service was good. The food is ok. I had the fish and I could not cut into it as it was too raw. I said it to the waiter who took it away and cooked it. He did say that it was meant to be cooked like that when I asked him what the chef said. Practically raw and inedible. I disagreed with him. I doubt the chef was there that evening. Below is a photo of my fish and a photo from another review I have used showing a lovely flakey fish!I wouldn’t go there again. I think the restaurant next door maybe better.

Such a wonderful and memorable Michelin restaurant. We did the surprise menu and were not disappointed! Service was excellent and the live piano player was a great touch.
