When hotel concierges recommend an offbeat place to eat, they insist on this relaxed eatery inside an ancient family home. The mini menu at L’Essentiel shouts France at every turn: Seared back of cod with shallots and fennel oil, or a beef cheek slow-cooked in red wine. Somewhat lighter, seasonal fare is served on the courtyard terrace in summer.
