" What an incredible experience! I celebrated my birthday at Obélix, and it was perfect. The foie-gras macaron appetizer was a highlight, and the duck breast was perfectly cooked. I was in food heaven! Our server was friendly and made excellent wine recommendations. The dessert—chocolate soufflé—was a delicious end to a wonderful evening. Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to enjoy great French cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Obélix is a hidden gem! My partner and I went there for dinner and enjoyed every moment. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I particularly enjoyed the steak tartare, which was fresh and flavorful, enhanced by herbs and perfect seasoning. The service was attentive and engaging. My only minor complaint was the wait time for the main courses, but it was worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had been looking forward to dining here for a long while, as it had received rave reviews. Yet, I found myself disappointed. The dish I was most excited about—duck confit—was just okay and did not sing like I hoped. Atmosphere was lovely, however, and the staff were very accommodating. I may be willing to give it another chance, perhaps with a different dish. " (*Curated Review*)

" Excellent culinary experience at Obélix! The creativity and flavors in the dishes were remarkable. The crispy duck breast was not only well-prepared but also beautifully plated, making the dining experience a feast for the senses. The environment was picturesque, with a great vibe for a dinner date. I’ll definitely be back for the wine selection as well! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re looking for high-quality French cuisine, Obélix should be on your list! I visited during a busy weekend and found the service to be surprisingly attentive despite the restaurant being full. The duck breast was incredible, and their take on classic dishes kept things interesting. I will definitely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Obélix is a classic spot for traditional French dishes. My experience was pleasant, with good service and a nice wine selection. However, the Beef Wellington was a little too salty for my liking. The atmosphere was warm and perfect for a date night, but consistency in the dishes could elevate this place even more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Good place but not what I expected from a French bistro. The service was polite, and the ambience was decent, but I felt the food lacked authenticity. The desserts impressed me, especially the fruit tart! While I won’t be rushing back, it was an alright experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)
