Le Ponton - Tanneron

6 of us booked to eat with the intention of enjoying the lovely setting overlooking Lac de St Cassien. To begin with the booking was messed up, we were placed far away from the terrace where we had expected to enjoy the live music. Our table was placed next to the fosse septic (Septic tank) throughout we were assaulted with the perfume of last weeks clients excretia. The table was sparse no decoration as one would expect in such an establishment, It is customary to be presented at the table with at the very least a basket of bread and a carafe of water not have to request the latter. The menu was lacking on choice however I chose the burger, the arrived on a plastic what can best be described a a toboggan that would not sit flat therefore one had to chase the food eventually resorting to using my hands to eat. The platter was very sparse, fries numbering 11 in quantity were in a tiny mesh basket, one lettuce leaf one slice of red onion a thin slice of tomato. The table had no condiments following requesting mustard, salt and pepper the latter arrived some time later in the form of paper sachet on a saucer, the mustard failed to materialise. As a main course very in adequate prompting one to have a Mc Do on the way home or a decent meal before coming. When approached by the owner asking if all was ok the former comments were relayed directly. A reduction in the final bill was justified but not offered however its not my style to request this instead a damming report such as this is quite sufficient. Obviously a very amateur operator by trying to tell me that in France one has to request bread......NO NO NO dear lady I have lived in France for 30 years.

The restaurant is currently closed but the place is ideal for families with children, there are picnic tables, a free children's game and even toilets. I shouldn't say it because the place isn't very well known and it's not busy but hey.... I highly recommend it but keep it to yourself and don't tell others

Nice and quiet place. Good quality catering

Very pleasant place facing the lake, a little wind this day, direct view of the lake and not far away! With the mountains in the distance, superb!

Un cadre très agréable, un personnel excellent et souriant, un large choix à un prix très raisonnable. Cet établissement est certainement peu connu, loin de la foule, où vous passerez un très agréable moment.
