Restaurant " Les Rochers "à La Balme de Sillingy

Disappointed. The service was a bit slow, the food uninteresting, the fries were frozen, the salad dressing was industrial, the steak tartare was vacuum-packed, and the dessert looked nice but was red fruit ice cream (not listed on the menu) and just a simple assembly. At this price, one would expect better.

A slightly disappointing meal with friends: the guinea fowl was undercooked, there were lipstick marks on the glass, and strange bits on the ice cream. I won't be going back.

During my overnight stay, I appreciated the quality of the room: spacious, comfortable, and perfectly suited for a business trip. However, I was less enthusiastic about the food. The €31 set menu (excluding drinks) included gazpacho with a fish quenelle, a chicken ballotine, and a fruit salad. The ingredients were of good quality and the dishes were well-prepared, but the portions seemed rather small considering the price. Regarding the €138 overnight package, the value for money seems a bit high. It's also worth noting that I booked directly with the hotel by phone, thinking I was getting the best rate. After checking, a booking through Booking.com would have cost me about €6 less, which is quite surprising. In conclusion, the hotel is pleasant in terms of the quality of its accommodation, but in my opinion, the prices should be better aligned with the services offered.

The restaurant is easily accessible with nearby parking. It has a large indoor dining room and a spacious terrace with parasols. The service was a bit slow, with a long wait between the amuse-bouche and the main course. My first experience was somewhat disappointing as the dishes arrived cold, even though the restaurant wasn't very busy. Despite this, the food was good. Perhaps the dessert menu should be updated, as in May (springtime), they offer a crème brûlée with autumnal flavors. After tasting it, we're still trying to figure out what those flavors were—chestnuts?
