Restaurant located on the shores of Lake Geneva offering the best local products.
Founded in 1938 by Jules and Louisa, Les Cygnes restaurant perpetuates the best of tradition by preparing and cooking local produce. Starting with lake fish caught by Ludo (the son), trimmed and boned on site before being cooked by Yannick (the second son). To be enjoyed on a dreamy terrace or in the dining room: perch fillets prepared 9 ways, lake fish served whole and carved at the table, plancha of Lake Geneva fish, beef fillet, lamb shoulder confit. A fine selection of wines. The true taste of happiness!

Un moment d'émerveillement dans un cadre idyllique !
Bien pauvres seront mes mots pour exprimer ce moment de pur ravissement à tout point de vue.
Accueil extrêmement chaleureux de la patronne, Madame PLASSAT.
Cadre au bord du lac, relevant de l'enchantement.
On réalise combien chaque plat est préparé avec l'amour du métier et la générosité envers le client.
Éblouissement des papilles et du palais tant tout est savoureux.
Gratitude en raison de la conjugaison de la succulence et de l'abondance.
Service empreint d'un professionnalisme exemplaire, assuré avec la plus parfaite bienveillance et une gentillesse de chaque instant.
Vraiment, bravo et merci !

Faites signe "aux Cygnes" !
Nous nous sommes arrêtés pour le déjeuner au restaurant "Les Cygnes". Conformément à la réglementation sanitaire, nous avons été répartis en deux tables dans le respect des barrières sanitaires.
Mais c'est surtout la carte qui a retenu notre attention avec ses spécialités franc-comtoises. Un véritable régal servi avec diligence et le sourire.
Une addition modérée et surtout un accueil chaleureux.
Bref, faites signe et réservez votre table pour un véritable moment de détente et de gourmandise !

Vente à emporter
Du coup, c'est la vente à emporter que nous avons testé de passage dans le secteur, et bien cela donne l'avant goût de la découverte en terrasse : perfection malgré les conditions compliquées. Ce restaurant est au top, et on reviendra, pour mettre les pieds sous la table...
