This review is about Terrasse Cremant. We felt going back 40 years in time, the time that eating vegetarian/pescetarian was new. But now it is 2024 and things have changed.
But not at this restaurant on the backside of Hotel Ecluse.
Very limited options for vegetarian/pescetarian. But we choose 2 starters and 2 mains.
After a small amuse (avocado and a whole tomato, nothing done with the tomato) and bread we got the starters.
Salade scampi was ok, just the sauce was so strong in garlic that it is not wise to eat it. The tiramisu avocat with ecrevisses was also ok, except that one of the chefs thought it was a good idea to put sweetened whipped cream on top. Look great on a picture but it is a disaster in taste.
Then we ordered cabillaud, on the menu it said with chorizo. So we asked to leave that out. Turned out that the sauce was pre-made with chorizo so the chefs decided to serve the dish without any sauce! And put two slices of chorizo next to the fish.
The worst was the vegetarian main dish. Straight from a frozen bag from Lidl or something, very bland and boring. No taste at all, overcooked. There were potato wedges as well, so salty that it heard my tastebuds the whole evening. And some crispy thin potato stuff, which was burned and therefor bitter and uneatable.
Luckely the wine was good and service very friendly! We had to pay in full despite our complaint at the end of service. We appreciate any hard working chef but please get some inspiration at one of the many vegan/vegetarian/pescetarian restaurants around Europe...

Definitely worth it's price! Clean Hotelrooms, comfy beds, great view from the balcony, the rainshower is just wow and could not find any particle of dust, neither any other type of dirt. Definitely worth it's price!
On the otherside there is the restaurant. We ate on their terrace with view winemountains and already the view was worth it! Unfortunately they only have cocktails with gin as main part. But to my surprise, those cocktails are awesome! (except that they put tooo much Ice into their Cocktails so that my glass was full until top and stiring was impossible without throwing out some Ice) On the picture you can see the "Tournedos Rossini" which blew me totally away! It was soooo delicious and the "cuisson" of the veal was perfect. For my taste there could only be more veggies on the plate. As always I took the "Café gourmand" for dessert, because of the variety and I can tell...I died! It was sooo delicious!
Definitely worth the price and the kind staff brightens up your day.
Little advice from me, if you like "Limoncello", they have the best! It's selfmade and you even can buy some bottles at the reception of the hotel. They also make "Orangello", "Limettello"...
