Gault&Millau's review 2026

13/20
Chef's Restaurant
This beautiful château, set in its own park, invites you on a journey through the history of the Valley of the Kings, just a few minutes from Amboise. Guests who get to be “lords and ladies of the castle” for the evening enjoy the setting, with its white tablecloths and grand curtains in the classic decor one would expect—perfect for prestigious evenings and receptions. The kitchen doesn’t hesitate to bring out the finest tableware and elegant dishes from Chef Arnaud Philippon’s rather extensive menu: brioche-crusted scallops with Aquitaine caviar, lobster with cocoa, coffee, and cucumber, Ibaïama pork wrapped in corn husks with summer vegetables and wood sorrel, and a warm blackcurrant soufflé. Prices are reasonable, but for a first visit, the €65 “Terroir” menu is a good place to start. The wine cellar features grand crus, wines from the Loire Valley, and other regions.
