Le Goeland - Anthy-sur-Léman

We really enjoyed this restaurant! finally place where waiter English speaks, was very friendly and explained everything about eating what was just incredible! I hope we'll be back soon. starter, main dish and cakes were so delicious. we highly recommend them to eat...and beautiful view from the terrace

Close to Geneva but off the beaten track, this restaurant is on the edge of Lake Geneva or Lac Léman as the locals call it. Filets de perche, fillets of lake perch in English are served fried or Meunière as the speciality of the house....There are other fine fish and meat dishes on the menu.

The food was brilliant, and given how busy the restaurant was the service was ok, if rather slow. We had a table near the entrance which was fine except for numerous smokers standing just outside the door. This did not enhance the lunch time experience.

Parking outside the door so easy to park. Direction you can't miss this place at night, as it is brightly lit up. On the lake so will be nice view during the day. Atmosphere busy, but not overly. Seating both indoor...and outdoor is available. Toilets were clean. Menu If you don't want beef or fish, then avoid as this is the only food on the menu. NO vegetarian, chicken, etc. Starter we had the Salade Gourmande. Disappointing start, as there was more salad leafs than anything else. Plus both different sauces on it! Main Gambas and Féra Crème. The leek sauce was pleasant on the fish, and the Gambas enjoyed a good flavour. BUT the food arrived with enough potato fries to sink a ship! There was only two of us, but this huge plate of fries arrived enough for 6 people. Further, they weren't even proper fries, instead they were tiny strips of potato that had been fried beyond, the only way to eat them was to scoop them up with a spoon. Dessert this was nice but contained too much rum. Cost €83.... and it wasn't great at all. Would we go again? No, not all all. But if you have teenagers or kids who want this kind of meal after being in the lake for the day, then this is your place.

The restaurant was full , great to see , we were met and seated very quickly with drinks being served promptly. There were six of us eating and all the meals arrived together and were of the highest quality . I had the local fish...from the lake ‘fera’ which melted in your mouth, the other meals , perch steak were cooked to perfection. Definitely happy to highly recommend this restaurant .
