Gault&Millau's review 2025

This good address deserves its long-standing reputation, and the locals love to meet there as in the good old days. Sandrine and Gilles Pierrès took over when the health crisis hit, and are committed to pleasing their loyal clientele with their vision of a well-polished, polished restaurant with dated codes. However, the chef has know-how and good ideas, which he could put to good use by streamlining the plate in the simplicity and freshness of his products, all of which are fresh and in season. In this typical house, built of local stone, the team gets involved to make sure everything goes well: foie gras carved into an apple, with smoked eel (with an overly sweet ice cream and a chocolate tear that's a little unnecessary), roasted hake fillet, Nantais butter with nutmeg, rutabaga mousseline and autumn vegetables, on a good, very fresh fish, iced soursop soufflé, shortbread and coconut cream, poached pineapple with grenadine vodka. Suitable cellar, fairly classic and not very expensive, with a choice by the glass.
