Restaurant Le Bistrot de Charlotte in Genève

Classic French style bistrot, with the usual appetisers and main courses elegantly presented, located in central Geneva just beside the Four Seasons Hotel. Welcoming staff and service make for a very pleasant dining experience, and this place is a little gem, whether it is for catching up with friends or for on the go business meetings. They also have an attractively priced menu of the day including a starter, main and desert. I went à la carte with the traditional œuf mayonnaise to kick off, followed by the steak tartare, and concluded with the house “Charlotte” tarte, a zesty lemon custard, meringue and crumble combination. All in all, if you are in the neighbourhood, well worth trying out. You can’t go wrong. In the summer, the experience is enhanced with the terrace.

Great for a group with an isolated space

A wonderful « bistro «  which I highly recommend

Magnificent restaurant, the cuisine was delicious with a small menu and seasonal products. The service was perfect

Magnificent discovery. Inventive and carefully executed cuisine. Top service 👍🏻😄

Very good service. The girl who greeted us was very attentive and kind. Delicious food and a cozy, quiet place for evening meetings with friends.

Just delicious and a special shout out for the veal rice! Thank you boss!

Welcoming, delicious, especially the foie gras which is my favorite, this restaurant is worth the detour. Impeccable, fast atmosphere and service. Everyone is on top

A good restaurant in the city center on the right bank. Long established restaurant. In summer a terrace is available. Menu of French dishes, gourmet and which appeal to the greatest number of people. Fairly high prices but quality products. Interesting wine list. The service is cordial and attentive, attentive. Allergies are taken seriously. Gluten-free ones are very well treated.

Great discovery, warm restaurant, very tasty cuisine, and above all thanks to Robert, a very endearing and very professional waiter who gave us a good time. I highly recommend this establishment!!

super nice restaurant in Geneva, we had a pleasant time, with top cuisine and service, second time we come and second time we leave with a smile on our faces, see you soon!

Friendly waiter, who spoke English fluently (which countered my terrible French). Accurate estimate for how long the food would take. Sea bass was good, and cut open on the table in front of me for extra flair. Poached pear dessert was excellent, the pear sorbet was very tasty.

Excellent cuisine, sophisticated simplicity. The daily specials are unique and delicious. The floating island with truffle flakes was outstanding. Nice wine list too, even if relatively short.

Very good table and excellent service. Thank you for this good time. See you soon.

A very good address Delicious cuisine with quality products and well presented Very friendly owners and waiters

We had lunch in Troyes the cuisine is good I was going to say standard for what you can find in Geneva the prices are high I was going to say standard for what you find in Geneva nothing special I would say that the experience was average I will not particularly make a detour to go for lunch in this establishment but no particular disappointment

Food below average. Prices above average. The service is great. Desserts great. Food below average. Prices above average. The service is great. Desserts are great.

Very nice summer terrace in a stylish ambience. The moules and frites were fantastic. A feeling like in the south of France.

Great value for money. Courtyard seating. Unpretentious. Tasty food well-prepared but not overly complicated.

Good quality food, to sit out in the terrace for lunch is enjoyable.

What an amazing experience! Food was delicious, service incredible, Jeremy was very professional and friendly ! I highly recommend.

Very nice discovery, the staff despite a crowded room remained friendly, attentive and attentive. The tartare was delicious like the perfect egg. thanks again to the whole team

perfect experience! friendly, competent, quality food and wine very good Simmethal entrecôte, sublime pean pie with top vanilla ice cream. great location, near the water highly recommended

Honestly a superb table in Geneva. Everything is top notch: the welcome, the service (extra staff), the dishes and the wines. A real happiness which has only one fault: you encourage you to go back!!! Would not change a thing !!!

I discovered this once with TheFork because I wanted a restaurant to eat Quenelles, I wasn't disappointed!!! So, I go back there for typical French dishes from time to time.

Excellent, excellent products, very kind staff, frequented by Gine Vrini friends, of Venetian origin who live in rue ddes delices

On Instagram it says it's open from 11:30am until 11pm, but it closes at 3pm. It took us a while to get there, and it was closed. It's good to update the information.

Exorbitant prices, stale bread, rough starter and the mushroom casserole turned into a small spoonful of boiled mushrooms, the meat nothing more than good.

A very good experience at this restaurant. The menu is varied and the suggestions add value by changing with the seasons. The plates are very well presented and tasty. The service is impeccable. The view of the windowed kitchen is a plus.

Good atmosphere. The dishes are good, well served and of good quality

The place vibe is nice, and every thing we ordered was very good in addition to the good service

Really excellent meal, quality products! Welcoming and smiling staff, thanks to Pauline for the service. A great time, I recommend this establishment :) See you soon !

Beautiful area. Very welcoming, the boss is from Lille 😉, and cooks top notch!

Fresh fish, attentive service, friendly and attentive staff

Each time, they charge us slightly more than we actually order. Who seems to be the manager purports to be polite and accommodating to clients, except in reality, they take advantage of tourists.

Over priced and not for the foodies. Limited menu at NASA/e.g.Space level prices...the salads extortionaly priced ,salty and dull sellection of veg. Deserts overpriced under delivered....👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎

It's a good address, friendly and professional staff. We will come back

Well-made brasserie, with an outdoor space in the shade. Very good service and advice

Great discovery!! Excellent veal rice with morels, friendly service, nothing but happiness!!

This is the second time I've come for lunch, and the welcome and service are always top notch!

For 45 francs, you receive a naked sea bream on a plate, without accompaniment, without sauce and without decoration. You could call it minimalism but it's more of a scam. The service, on the other hand, is friendly.

A hidden gem in the touristic part of the city on the waterfront. I frequently come here for delicious food, cozy ambiance and charming service. My favorite dish here is their escargot, but everything else is great, too.

Very good and pleasant welcome but in the end it is still very expensive

The salad was dry same as the burger but in general terms the food was ok. The service was the main problem. The waiter was very unfriendly borderline rude in personal treatment and also during delivery service. We had problems with the table stability he promised to fix but never did. At the end he also seemed to be upset about not getting a tip even though the dry, uncommitted service during the evening. I still consider the restaurant worth a chance as maybe the other meat cuts would be its strong side. But definitely an improvement in service is recommended.

Very well eaten with very good service. I will go back there !

Good food. Pleasant and fast service. Geneva Prize... But at least it's good

The service is excellent as is the food. The quality of the products is impeccable. I recommend.

Excellent cuisine and attentive service. A place to revisit often.

Very good and pleasant welcome, always on top

Great empty café de Paris butter, very tasty and in abundance

Good food - the salmon tartare was delightful

Be very careful if you book with the THe Fork app!!! 40% reduction announced not respected!!! Blame it on The fork according to the restaurant! Almost all dishes come with paid extras! Good but really nothing more. not worth the price

Very well received even without having reserved. Beautiful atmosphere, excellent meal

Very nice welcome Lyonnaise card as I like Quite honorable wine list I recommend the andouillette and the sweetbreads But oysters as a starter or snails are not left out An award for raspberry vinegar with oysters Very nice evening for us hoping to emulate PS: apparently there’s something I need to try one day This is the wine tasting card

More than a restaurant: a friendly place where the warm atmosphere of the owner - the "famous Jeremy" - transmits his legendary energy and good humor to us. The taste buds are in turmoil and there are fireworks of thousands of flavors of dishes and wine pairings... We recommend it and we will return.

I recommend the oyster dish which is of exceptional quality

We shared a great moment. 5 stars for the quality of the products and the cuisine. And 10 stars for Pauline and Cheyenne, the two adorable waitresses. See you soon surely!

Very warm, very good and very friendly staff. I recommend without problem

The "La Tartare" is excellent 👍🥂

Nice place, nice menu. With friends we went there for the marrow bones. Succulent, and the boss is a sweetheart.. THANKS.

Had a company dinner for 26 people. We had the entire restaurant. The staff and the management were excellent and put together menu options for us. They were flexible, accommodating with our requests and offered great choices. Tonight all of our members had a wonderful evening, the service was excellent and very friendly, all the dishes for ready at the same time for everyone and we even switched places twice and no one got confused during the service. The fish and chicken were cooked perfectly, Thank you so much for making our night memorable and will be back again!

I loved the interior space and the service

Lovely place, price are high but quality is here. The salmon and beef was perfect. The both salad too. Love the calm and the waitress. For sure we’ll coming back !!!

One of my favorite restaurants in Geneva. Homemade foie gras is delicious! Always warm and professional welcome

Really very good, great welcome, very well eaten, recommended, thank you

Good welcome, good service and good tartars

Excellent food topped with great service. Absolutely recommend to try. Perfect for dinner with some classic and seasonal offers :)

wahooo wahooo the burgers were great.. very good meat quality .. highly recommend this place

Excellent service and dishes. Price a little towards the top of the basket but really not disappointed.

Reserved table on the terrace not ready. For my part, an hour to eat, so no time for a starter and a main course, and dessert we forget. So take your time or allow time to taste the entire menu that attracts the taste buds...

Great restaurant, incredible with our daughter.

Very good restaurant, the waitresses were friendly, smiling and helpful I recommend when visiting Geneva

Very good experience! Friendly and fast service. The dishes were delicious. I had a salmon avocado tartare, fresh and light!

Very good restaurant. Super nice team 🥰

Très bon moment, très bel endroit ! Nous y avons déjeuné ce midi et malgré un temps frais et pluvieux nous n’avons pas eu froid et nous avons pu profiter de notre déjeuner grâce à une belle terrasse chauffée et abritée. Nous avons très bien mangé, très bonne viande et très bon vin, quant au service, le personnel est agréable et souriant ! Le rapport qualité prix est plutôt bon pour Genève, je recommande vivement !

Juste parfait Une carte au top et les vins fabuleux

Bon déjeuner, dommage pour les frites qui ne sont pas maison.

(Traducido por Google) El servicio es súper lento con caras sombrías. Afirman tener un plato del día por un precio especial, pero en realidad nunca lo tienen (una vez que lo reservé en thefork.ch, todavía estaban "fuera de lugar"). Bastante caro para lo que se obtiene allí. (Original) Service is suuuper slow with gloomy faces. They claim to have a dish of the day for a special price but never actually have it (once I even booked it on thefork.ch, still they were ‘out of it’). Quite expensive for what one gets there.

(Traducido por Google) Buenos productos. Servicio rápido. Platos bien preparados. Muy correcto. (Original) Bons produits. Service rapide. Plats bien préparés. Très correct.

(Traducido por Google) La relación precio-sabor no es lo suficientemente buena. La selección de platos no es muy grande y excepto por una posición en el menú (que ya no tienen) todo lo que pedimos fue un poco decepcionante. ¡El tartar de ternera es decente! Un servicio lento y las caras como su loro favorito 🦜 acaba de morir. Estábamos casi solos en el restaurante y nos trajeron un cheque solo después de que lo pedimos 3 veces. (Original) Price-taste ratio is not good enough. The selection of dishes is not big and except for one position on the menu (which they don’t have anymore) everything we ordered was a bit disappointing. Beef tartar is decent though! A slow service and the faces like their favorite parrot 🦜 just died. We were almost alone in the restaurant and they brought us a check only after we asked for it 3 times.

(Traducido por Google) Gran restaurante con un personal muy amable y acogedor. Muy bien ubicado a 3 minutos de la estación de Cornavin y a 1 minuto del lago de Ginebra. La comida es realmente excelente y los ingredientes son frescos. Vale la pena pasar por este restaurante para comer con amigos o para una comida de negocios. Muchas gracias a ellos por apoyar al personal que trabajó durante la pandemia de COVID19. Fuimos invitados con tres de mis colegas de TPG y fuimos recibidos como reyes, así que no dudes en comer en este restaurante realmente agradable. (Original) Super restaurant avec un personnel très sympa et accueillant. Très bien situé à 3 minutes de la gare Cornavin et 1 minutes du lac Léman.

Un grand merci à eux d'avoir soutenu le personnel qui a travaillé durant la pandémie de COVID19. Nous avons été invité avec trois de mes collègues TPG et nous avons été reçu comme des rois.. Alors n'hésitez plus aller manger dans ce restaurant vraiment sympathique.

(Traducido por Google) Un gran restaurante con un equipo dinámico y profesional, tanto en el comedor como en la cocina (puedes ver a los cocineros detrás de un vaso.

(Traducido por Google) Super restaurante !!! Muy buenos platos y un servicio impecable! (Original) Super resto!!!Très bons plats et un service irréprochable !!!

Soirée mémorable entre collègues à l’occasion du repas des héros. Entrées et plats très bien présentés, copieux! Mojito sans alcool excellent. Dessert divin : très bonne tarte aj citron meringuée. Un immense merci pour le patron du restaurant pour le repas gracieusement offert à l’occasion de cette soirée spéciale! À bientôt c’est sûr, nous reviendrons!

Assiettes bien présentées et très copieuses. J’ai pris la petite salade César et c’était largement suffisant. L’entrecôte était également généreuse. Le choix dans la carte est assez restreint (ce qui est pour moi un gage de qualité), mais suffisant pour convenir à tout le monde. Thé gourmand excellent et a permit de tout goûter. ‍♂️Service cordial, ni froid ni chaleureux. Professionnel.Terrasse très agréable en été, en plein centre, localisation idéale. Réservé via la fourchette, ce qui a permis une réduction de -40% sur toute l’addition (hors boisson)Toilettes un peu négligée, pourtant en début de service, un peu dommage !Verdict: Je recommande ✅

abbiamo pranzato in questo simpatico locale e moderno con una bella terrazza. piatti semplici ma ben preparati dallo staff. prezzi nella norma e buon servizio, ne vale la pena provare una volta che si va a Ginevra

Wir hatten das Steak und das Tartar für meine Frau. Es war das beste Steak, das ich je hatte. Schöne Atmosphäre, wir kommen wieder.

Mon père et moi avons découvert ce restaurant via LaFourchette. Un cadre sympathique, un service attentionné et souriant, des mets savoureux fait maison...je recommande vivement ce lieu pour les amateurs de bonne cuisine et de convivialité ! Surtout, n’hésitez pas !!

Nous avons été très bien accueillis par la jeune et très professionnelle équipe de ce bistrot gastronomique. Les menus conjuguent tradition culinaire française et suisse, le service est distingué sans être emprunté, les produits sont frais et les portions généreuses. Nous vous recommandons vivement cet établissement genevois . Encore un petit conseil: le café gourmand est...exceptionnel, même après une entrée et un plat consistants...

Fui allí principalmente por todas las buenas críticas, que también fueron apoyadas por un expatriado que conozco en Ginebra al que le gusta. Estaba francamente perplejo por todas las excelentes críticas. El restaurante estaba bien, pero nada excepcional. Como cualquiera de un millón de restaurantes en pueblos franceses. Mi bistec estaba un poco recocido (ordené que fuera salado, pero apenas calificaba como medio raro), al igual que el de mi compañero. Esto fue particularmente extraño dado que ambos filetes estaban muy ligeramente carbonizados en el exterior. Definitivamente, también he probado mucho mejor salsa au poivre antes. La ensalada verde no estaba mal. Tampoco la tarta de pera y almendra, aunque, una vez más, nada excepcional, solo su tarta de bistro estándar.En pocas palabras: no hay nada de malo en tener una comida informal aquí, pero no me esforzaría por ello.

(Traducido por Google) Un menú atractivo y un servicio impecable. (Original) Une carte attrayante et un service impeccable

Cadre sympathique et personnel prévenant, pour ce qui est du repas, nous avons été déçus. Pour ma part, c'est tout sauf un bistrot.. trop de chichis et cuisine peu satisfaisante. Le tartare que j'ai demandé relevé ne l'était pas, il était quasiment immangeable tellement il y avait de moutarde ! Les frites étaient fraîches mais molles. Manque d'assaisonnement.J'ai fait plusieurs bistrots de type Lyonnais beaucoup plus authentiques avec une cuisine exceptionnelle.Je ne reviendrais pas et je ne le conseille pas. Heureusement que nous avons eu une réduction grâce à la fourchette car les prix sont très élevés. Rapport qualité/prix mauvais.

J'ai rarement mangé un burger aussi bon ! (Burger au chèvre)Servi par une charmante serveuse arrangeante et pro !En temps que français ça nous a coûté un bras mais bon...

Les cadre est très agréable bien quun peu bruyant (cest la le seul petit défaut de ce restaurant) Le staff est serviable, souriant et efficace. Les plats sont excellents ! J'y retourne toujours avec plaisir !
