Frommer's Review

An intimate, comfortable restaurant serving excellent cuisine. Café Pierrot was originally established as a real coffeehouse style cafe, while over the years it developed to become elegant establishment that it is today. Following recent renovations, the atmosphere feels like a high-class wine cellar decorated with contemporary artworks, soft lighting, and fresh orchids. We started with a gooseliver trilogy, which included a brûlée, a liver terrine and grilled. If the Gundel's grilled gooseliver is the barometer by which to be measured, then Pierrot lost out, being less tender and a little bit chunky. The marinated venison steak, however, was truly delicious, and the place was also beautifully presented. The menu also includes tempting dishes like oven roasted duck breast or roasted guinea fowl breast. The back part of the restaurant is more intimate, while the frontal area is closer to the action. A pianist plays every evening after 6pm.
