"Ne vous attendez pas à un service au poil, pico-bello. C'est pas le but de ce resto qui emploie des personnes/stagiaires dans le cadre de leur retour à l'emploi, encadrés par le responsable des lieux et cuisto. C'est pas le lieu et c'est ce qui fait aussi son charme. Niveau cuisine, c'est simple, bon, bien servi et les prix très raisonnables."
