Restaurant de l'Aigle

I stayed in the hotel in July, 2011 and found it old but charming. I did not have the chance to try the restaurant till July, 2012. We arrived hungry at about 1:30 in the afternoon, near the end of the regular lunch time. We were handed a 15-page menu and told we must complete our order immediatey before the kitchen closed. OK, I know the custom but come on... I asked for 5 minutes and was harangued by the waitress. When she finally shut up, I held up 3 fingers and insisted on her giving me 3 minutes. She relented with a sigh.One in our party surrendered and ordered a sandwich. Two got the plat du jour and I got the ubiquitous "filets de perches" served everywhere on the shores of Lac Leman. We all really wanted a nice salad but could not decipher the menu with all its charts and tables listing various prices depending upon your selection.The food was all pretty good. Compared to other lakeside restaurants in this very touristy area, it was slightly above average. I recommend choosing a more casual place for lunch or showing up early enough to allow yourself time to figure out the way-too-complex menu. Despite the custom of closing the kitchen after lunch, there really is no excuse for the service we got. There are plenty of average restaurants in the area. I'll choose another next time.

Pizza wonderful base light and thin toppings thick and delicious. Pasta full of cream and great taste. Lovely welcoming waitress who couldn't speak English and we don't speak French but the smile said it all and we got through! Clean and comfortable

Well worth the visit if you're in the region. The gnocchi and the coquilles de St Jacques (scallops) were fabulous. Helpful and friendly staff, good choice of wine, lovely decor and very reasonable prices. We'll be back.
