What people say, in short

Albi earns strong recommendations for flavorful food and an unstuffy fine-dining experience. Two diners particularly enjoyed the kitchen-side chef's table, and the mushroom hummus has explicit fans. One visitor recommends ordering à la carte rather than the tasting menu after finding the latter too much food. The praise is not unanimous: one diner found the meal mediocre, and another enjoyed the food but warned that seats near the preparation area were noisy.
