JY'S - Réserver une table

We were guests there in August and the food was so creative and good. Every course was thoughtful, the presentation and crockery were gorgeous and we couldn't wait for the next dish. I would definitely recommend splurging on the tasting menu let them knock your socks off.

Very professional, yet very personal experience. Excellent food both precise and creative. Service and hosting also top class. Head chef dropping by the table and had a unformal chat.
