"Don't know why so many people slag this place. We chose to eat here guessing that it would open sooner than the highly rated Le Montagnard in Poitiers (opens at 7:45pm).And to be fair, while they don't serve an authentic Swiss fondue or raclette here, they really pile on the ingredients, which makes it even more tasty than the traditional fare.The only reason the reviews are so bad is that people are comparing against a traditional restaurant, when it's more like the French version of iHop or Denny's. But for us foreigners, because the base food is potatoes instead of pancakes, the fare actually makes for a tasty change from the cream and sauces found in traditional French food!The prices are in line with IHOP too, and given they open before 7pm, this is the place to go if you want to eat at times you're accustomed to normally back home. As for the allegedly bad service, I found it to be cordial and even friendly!"
