Notes (La Nauve Hotel)

Notes

A one-Michelin-star restaurant with only twenty seats inside the La Nauve hotel. Chef Anthony Carballo cooks with produce from the estate garden.

Notes is located inside the five-star La Nauve hotel, a 19th-century mansion on the edge of town. The restaurant has about 20 seats and a salon-style decor from the Napoleon III era. Chef Anthony Carballo trained under star chefs including Yannick Alléno, and offers surprise tasting menus of four or seven courses, partly inspired by the estate's vegetable garden. He earned a Michelin star in 2026, and the wine list is also carefully curated. Signature dishes include licorice-marbled foie gras, meagre with white butter sauce, and chicken with foie gras and Pineau sabayon. Seats are limited, so booking is essential. For a more relaxed meal, try Brasserie des Flâneurs, housed in the estate's former distillery. The restaurant is about 2 km from the city center.
