Bibet is an institution with a lot of tables closed to the Saône river. The location of this restaurant is one of the main interest of this restaurant. We were six on a ronde table. We had a Tartare of salmon and frogs off course. We specially like the dessert. View all feedback.
What JustinGRoberts doesn't like about chez bibet:
I work near here. I have been here 3 times but never again. The first 2 times were good but this time my steak was completely over cooked and, after complaining got an almost raw steak in return. I’m not normally fussy but clearly the head chef is not on duty tonight. Won’t be coming back ... View all feedback.
We attended on a hot summer’s day with local family friends so we had a group of 6 adults and 2 kids. This place is meant to have the best frog legs in the region. They are served piping hot on a sizzling cast iron plate in butter, garlic and parsley. They really are truly excellent! Crispy, delicious and fresh! I had the privilege of having the best hamburger of my life here. I have sampled burgers all over the world including Fergberger in Queenstown NZ which the Lonely Planet called ‘probably the best burger in the world’. Clearly the Lonely Planet staff have not eaten here. It was an emotional experience as I went through each bite, experiencing each of the delicious, fresh, perfectly placed, exquisite ingredients. If this is a hamburger then everything else I’ve had is a cheap imitation. I feel like I’ve just travelled first class and now I will never be the same again! Even the side potatoes were excellent. We finished of course, with Cafe Gourmand for dessert which is possibly the best thing to do in France. Each of the desserts were absolutely delicious. The setting was super relaxed under the leafy sycamore trees and stayed cool despite the hot day. It’s in a great location on the river and next to the 13th century St Bernard castle. I would have absolutely given 5 stars however they were so busy on this day that they were not quite as attentive as I would have liked and didn’t bring our dishes at the same time or come back regularly to take drink orders etc. the staff were very friendly and polite and especially attentive to the children that were with us. I would highly recommend this place and sincerely question anyone who gave a negative review as possibly not knowing that they are talking about.
Earlier reviews have been highly mixed to say the least but we felt we had little choice but to use this restaurant after a long day in the car. It's a slightly odd place with restricted views of the river from a huge area of slightly grubby decking. Tree leaf litter makes it hard to stay clear of debris. After the apocryphal stories of earlier visitors we went for safety first options of bottled beer, water, pate du canard starters and whitebait for mains. And it was all fine. Not great, just fine. Service was surprisingly good given there were around 60 diners when we left. Cost was €58 for 2 with no wine.
We were recommended to this restaurant by the proprietor of the hotel we were staying in, However, the service was extremely slow and the staff extremely rude!. We waited one and a half hours to be served the first course despite advising them that we had travelled a long way that day and were hungry. They refused to serve any bread until we had ordered too did they think we were likely to do a runner ! When we complained at the end in French the waitress who had previously talked to us only in English despite our best efforts to converse in French replied in rapid fire French appealing to customers in the vicinity (in FRENCH! that we anglaise just wanted fast food and should have gone to McDonalds ! We both speak and understand French and were absolutely appalled at this blatant rudeness! If you have nowhere else to go other than this restaurant go hungry!
Un point de vue superbe sur la Saône. Belle terrasse. J'avais emmené un ballon et les enfants ont joué sur le terrain de boules attenant, nous avions l'oeil sur eux.Serveurs et serveuses souriants.Service rapide alors que le resto était plein. Un seul hic, le serveur à fait tomber la paille de la limonade de mon fils, j'ai réclamé à 2 serveurs une paille. 15mn après toujours rien. Je suis donc allée en chercher une au bar. Au menu à 31€ j'ai pris la crème brulée au chèvre, c'est spécial mais j'ai vraiment aimé. Puis grenouilles, un peu trop d'ail à mon goût. Nous avons demandé à les faire réchauffer car le temps de les manger c'était froid. Le plus dur a été de réussir à choper un serveur pour lui demander ce service.Ma fille a pris un tataki de saumon (menu à 28€). ATTENTION, c'est cru et froid. Elle n'a pas aimé. Nous avons demandé à le faire cuire. Cela a été fait sans problème. J'ai gouté :trop gras à mon goût, le plat baignait dans l'huileAu dessert soufflé glacé au marc de Bourgogne coulis au cassis. C'est à tomber par terre. Un fort goût d'alcool, j'adore. Le soufflé glacé ressemble à de la crème de mascarpone, mais bon, j'ai aimé.Après le repas nous avons fait une balade en bord de Saône : vraiment chouette...et ça aide à digérer.
Nous recherchions une terrasse, vu la chaleur de ces derniers jours.Endroit agréable en bord de Saône, accueil sympathique des serveuses et attention de la patronne, merci; par contre la nourriture n'est pas à la hauteur par rapport aux prix pratiqués, la panna cotta manquant de saveur, la viande n'était pas cuite comme nous le souhaitions, le gratin dauphinois banal, et les cuisses de grenouilles n'ont rien d'extraordinaire...Dommage car le cadre est agréable
