Their modern cuisine is designed to invite guests on a flavorful journey marked by discovery, where each dish is meant to tell its own story.
The atmosphere at Le Sarment is both inviting and elegant, creating a sense of well-being that makes it an ideal spot for a relaxed lunch or a dinner with friends. This focus on quality and genuine hospitality has earned the restaurant a Michelin Bib Gourmand, recognizing its good quality, good value cooking. It's a place where the chefs' dedication to a sincere, modern cuisine shines through in every carefully prepared plate.
For a full experience, the "Menu Grand Cru" is a curated journey through the region's tastes. Starters might include a creamy mushroom soup with snails and shiitake, or seared scallops with cauliflower and hazelnuts. Main courses feature options like a beef paleron in red wine sauce with rutabaga, or a line-caught pollock with pak choi and a salsify emulsion made with local Crémant de Bourgogne. A vegetarian risotto with trompettes de la mort mushrooms and Beaufort cheese is also available. The meal can conclude with a classic tarte tatin with buckwheat and almonds, or a dark chocolate mousse with cashew nuts and cocoa. A thoughtfully selected wine list, with a focus on the great terroirs of Burgundy, is designed to complement each course perfectly.
