Solid burgers and a great garden in Champigny
Au Belvédère has carved out a nice niche in Champigny-sur-Marne as a guinguette-style bar and restaurant without the Marne river setting. The large garden is definitely the highlight - it's a rare find in the area and makes for a pleasant spot to enjoy drinks and food outdoors. The menu focuses on burgers, and they do them well. The Truffé Deluxe with Brie and truffle mushrooms is particularly good, and the BBQ Gourmand with bacon and beer-caramelized onions hits the mark too. Prices are reasonable for the portion sizes.
