An incredible experience from the moment you enter the restaurant.
The personal is welcoming & very attentive.
The waitress did a great job walking us through the menu, we wanted to try everything!
I had the red snapper & the Vichyssoise which were delicious.
We had a good evening. Definitely recommended
Cela faisait plusieurs années que je n'étais pas venu au Clocher Penché.
Dont je connaissais surtout pour ses excellents brunchs.
Aujourd'hui, j'ai découvert de très belles améliorations/rénovations du restaurant.
Il est évident que le souci du détail, le bien être du client, la qualité des plats sont la priorité du restaurant.
Le volume & le choix de musique est juste parfait 👌
Nous avons adorez notre expérience, nous reviendrons assurément.
Apéritif : cocktail Cardinal (rhum blanc, canneberges, menthe, lime) ❤?
Entrée : boudin noir, samosa, Bourget, menthe ❤?
Plat principal : Morue, orge torréfié, crème d'ail, épinards, pistou 👍
Dessert : Tropézienne ( 👉un peu fade a mon goût)
Wonderful meal, lovely ambience & servers were attentive. We enjoyed the bread, oysters, cod & hanger steak. I have never had this steak before & it was cooked to perfection so tender & flavourful. Lovely dinner.
Nous avons passé un beau & bon moment au clocher penché. La nourriture était excellente. Plusieurs choix qui nous amène ailleurs, avec des bons produits frais & locaux. Le service était A1.
C'était ma première fois & certainement pas la dernière.
Had a lovely experience here! The star of the evening was definitely the hanger steak, they were cooked to perfection! Very tender & flavourful. Also the blood pudding was surprisingly delicious! It was wrapped in like a samosa way but had that salsa verde that gave that ceviche taste to it.
We also ordered the panna cotta which was soso, the cheese took most of the flavour but nothing more, we were left feeling like there's some sort of drizzle missing. The foie gras was sat on a bread with apples that were overpoweringly sour which I didn't really like, & the mocktails were incredibly sweet but overall, I had a great time. The staff were very attentive & very accommodating! We had a miscommunication that they very easily remedied.
Une cuisine de quartier à la hauteur d'un restaurant 5 étoiles, mais avec des prix pour qu'on soit capable d'y retourner régulièrement. Toujours une explosion de saveur pour les papilles avec une exécution parfaite à tout coup.
This was one of the best restaurants I have been to in a very long time. The service was impeccable, from the simple courtesy of taking our coats to really ensuring we didn't feel rushed at the end of the meal.
We had a mouthwatering steak cooked to perfection, the fish of the day with risotto & a delicious cheese starter with leek & pancetta & incredible mitake mushrooms.
There was one small menu & everything was fantastic. Even better & often rare to find was the sound & ambiance was absolutely perfect. The place was packed but the sound was minimal, where we could hear the music & everyone was speaking softly. 10/10 recommend
Oh & I have never had such delicious & well presented mocktails
