  • Very good 3-course French dinner. Elegant ambiance. Warm welcome & service. Definitely on the pricier side. The entire restaurant needed a bit of ventilation.

  • It was one of the best experiences we ever had when it comes to food. Every course was more delicious than the last. Highly recommended for a dinner in Lausanne. We can’t wait to go there again

  • By far, the best restaurant in Lausanne. Their new emplacement is great, cozy and very well decorated. The chef's creativity is impressive; every dish is carefully elaborated, every detail counts. The staff is super friendly, professional and charming. They always make us feel like we are at home. Jacques restaurant is a must. We will continue coming!

  • We had such a wonderful experience at Jacques! The mix of flavours in every dish was spot on – creative without being overcomplicated. The monkfish was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection with such a delicate balance of textures and sauces. The gnocchi was pure comfort food but elevated – soft, flavourful and simply nomnomnom. The desserts were beautifully presented and so yummy – the perfect ending to the meal. Service was warm and attentive, and the overall atmosphere made the whole evening feel special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for refined dishes with amazing flavour combinations!

  • In a delightful Parisian atmosphere, I had the pleasure of experiencing a surprise menu that truly impressed me. The pigeon dish was perfectly cooked, tender, and bursting with flavor. The veal sweetbreads were expertly prepared, showcasing a remarkable balance between the creamy texture and the delightful crunch in each bite. I must also mention the outstanding wine pairing that elevated the dining experience, complemented by the friendly and highly professional service. Without a doubt, I will be a returning guest to this exceptional restaurant.

  • We went for the surprise menu with an additional entrée, and we were amazed. It was our friend's birthday, and they were kind enough to put a special candle on her dessert. Everything was delicious, and the staff were very friendly. With the amount, taste and quality of food, we think it is well worth the price! I will definitely recommend it to my friends and I will be returning.

  • I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the restaurant Jacques in downtown Lausanne (next to Opera). The menu and food are very pleasing. The staff is welcoming and very informative. The morels and cheese plate was particularly memorable. I recommend this as a go to place when in Lausanne.

  • Beautiful gem of a place in Lausanne. Food and service comparable to what one would get from a one Michelin star place in Paris. Highly recommend, especially for a special occasion dinner!
