Buffet de la Gare is located, as the name suggests, next to the Eaux Vives train station (not the main station in Geneva!) a bit outside of downtown Geneva. Fortunately, it is a 5-minute walk from the no. 12 or 16 tram lines, so it is very accessible for tourists.
The menu tends towards classical French fare but with nouveau twists, and it is divided into an 85chf three-course degustation, a 130chf five-course degustation, or á la carte from a wonderfully diverse menu. At our recent dinner, we enjoyed greatly the ravioli of duck confit garnished with foie gras black truffles and served in a chestnut cream broth; a wonderful bruschetta served with lobster; and the filet of beef crusted with mushroom and accompanied by root vegetables and a superb wine sauce.
For a nice dinner out, or for a special treat, I found Buffet de la Gare to be an excellent departure from the typical restaurants in Geneva: the interior is quite modern and not at all crowded, the service was attentive but not annoying, and the menu was thought out well and accommodated all tastes. I will be going back when the weather warms up to enjoy the outdoor terrace - if I don't get back before.
