Restaurant Le Terroir — Restaurant in Beaune

I went here for dinner on the recommendation of the proprietor of the vineyard I was staying at. I had a great experience with great food and great wine. I had a bottle of a Santenay premier cru from next to the vineyard of one I have had and enjoyed at home, and it was exquisite.

The wine list is substantial, and includes at least two dozen bottles just from the Santenay area around the village, with many many more wines both local and from other regions. They also have a few decent wines by the glass.

The menu is rather small, which in my opinion is a good thing because the few items on it are usually exceptionally good. I started with their own foie gras, which was both delicious and a sizeable quantity. It's rare that I am ever served enough foie gras to be satisfied, but I was here.

My parents mentioned that the fish dish could also have used a bit more salt. Overall, an excellent...

My vegetarian salad was more a pot pourrie of what was left in the kitchen. Overcooked cauliflower. Un peeled courgette ends. Cold poached eggs either a no taste sauce. We waited 45 minutes for our cold dishes. Dessert sounded great but tasted of little. My partners dish of cold cuts and cheeses from famous Hess shop was not at the quality of that shop. No pickles or condiments. Bland green salad. We paid 98 euro for two to include only one...
