Mille Or — Restaurant in La Neuveville

It might was one of these days....

BUT

we did not have out best experience in this restaurant. The good reviews made us look forward to it and to be honest we were a little bit taken by surprise what happend on our stay there.

Food: Good things first, the risotto (with ricotta and truffes; au citron) was amazing for the both of us. It was creamy but not heavy and a tasteful delight. I had a chicken cordon bleu which had a fresh taste but it was lacking flavor. Presentation of the food was very satisfiying and inviting. The portions very unfortunately were very small.

Staff: Friendly and welcoming at first but a few things happened involving broken glass and a wrong serving of food (so I had to wait for the side for a long time while my main got cold; they did offer something quicker though) as well as a wrong item on our bill. For all of the above (which can happen to the best of us) we did not get any apologies which I would have appreciated given a good service standard.

Price: Small portions of good food but still overpriced in my opinion.

General Information: Not Corona-friendly; no masks and touching of cutlery and serviettes with bare hands after handing out and taking menus from other customers.

All in all a little bit disappointing. I would recommend a review of the portions and maybe the price as well (which can be justified by bigger portions though). As for the service itself I think our experience speaks for itself of what can be...

Absolutely felt privileged to have wined and dined here in Mille Or.

Firstly the setting is in La Neuville which is so beautiful and yet under the tourist radar, so this is a very special restaurant.

Then we were really humbled by the boss Claude warm hospitality. He made us feel special, we talk about everything from the history of La Neuville to local wines to Swiss dining culture, Alp horn, Swiss watch and etc as if we were long lost friend.

Claude also showed us around his gallery of Marionettes which is an eye opener to us Asian people. More people need to see this.

Mille Or serves delicious wines. And tasty bread, butter and jam. We came here twice, once for tea time (having wine here) and once for breakfast. We’d be looking forward to comeback for lunch and dinner 1 day.

This restaurant will forever have a special place...

After a private event I got to DJ with local legend Igor Blaska I stopped by to organize my notes, have a good coffee and a meal before I would travel to Germany and I was so pleasantly overwhelmed by the exceptional taste of this little gem in design, homemade delights and a heart warming bilingual atmosphere. Bravo! I will be back whenever...
