We went to Montrachet for our anniversary and it was superb. The service, the food, the ambience, I couldn’t fault any of it. The staff were attentive and engaged, the food was magnificent - crab meat souffle, escargot and duck a la orange, all fantastic. We will definitely be back. Highly recommended
