About the restaurant

A tranquil rhythm emanates from the water’s edge at Waterside Inn, filtering into every carefully aligned detail of the dining room. The understated elegance of crisp white tablecloths and river views sets an immediate tone of serenity—formal yet never cold. The interplay of muted lighting with the gentle movement outside lends an air of contemplative quietude, mirroring the restaurant’s own measured approach to its craft. Three Michelin stars illuminate Waterside Inn’s deep-rooted dedication to classic French gastronomy, a legacy continually shaped by Alain Roux. Here, the culinary narrative unfolds in plates where mastery takes the foreground: feather-light fish, poached with unwavering precision; pastries displaying intricate lamination and perfect glaze; sauces that clarify the essence of poultry or shellfish, seamlessly enriched with fresh herbs and the soft layering of wine reductions. Each composition signals a conscious refusal of excess. Presentation is meticulously arranged—yet never distractingly ornate—so that the soul of each dish remains firmly linked to tradition. Roux’s philosophy is evident in a restrained but confident hand, allowing refined technique to marry with ingredient integrity. The result is a dialogue between past and present: timeless recipes like soufflé Suissesse or lobster medallions in delicate cream sauces, given resonance through detail rather than reinvention. Ambience at Waterside Inn leans towards the quietly grand; subtle accents and riverside light carry through a succession of rooms designed for both privacy and reflection. Flashes of polished brass, soft carpeting, and immaculate porcelain serve as unobtrusive companions to the meal, reinforcing an atmosphere where attention to minutiae underpins the whole experience. Seasonality enters not as a flourish, but as a guiding compass. Menus shift gently to reflect the finest available produce, always interpreted within the bounds of French technique—a reminder that luxury here derives less from novelty than from mastery sustained over decades. There is no need for spectacle: harmony, depth, and consistency are the through-line. In this space, tradition remains fully alive, articulated with a clarity that lingers well beyond the final course.
