Gault&Millau's review 2026

Away from the city, behind a few residential districts, Jérôme Dallet's house is revealed behind imposing wrought-iron gates, like a magnificent bourgeois home in the heart of Charente-Maritime. The sumptuous building is full of promise, confirmed in both plate and service by this Dallaison, which is as modern as it is aware of its heritage, where the terroir is taken up with great intelligence. The €79 menu showcases true technique and intuition, with trout confit in a fig leaf, new turnip and mustard, barbecued tuna and sucrine, shellfish marinade, kid, wild garlic and white asparagus, and a fine dessert of grapefruit, coffee and hazelnuts. A fine cellar and excellent management in the dining room.
