Gault&Millau's review

15/20

Remarkable Restaurant Fans don't hesitate: for them, Nicolas Borrombo's restaurant is the best and most beautiful in Saint-Jean de Luz. In this superb 16th-century listed mansion near the Grande Plage, Stéphanie and Nicolas have preserved the authentic charm, the chef marrying the setting with a cuisine that is both tasty and aesthetically pleasing, using seasonal produce and local produce. A superb job on the Banka trout, marinated in gravlax and tartar, with ewe's milk tofu and horseradish, the small-boat styrofoam gnocchi with watercress, braised fennel and rhubarb confit, or the superb Sourade pigeon, cooked on a trunk and smoked with hay, confit and lacquered leg, Aldudes bacon, wild garlic jus.. This three-toque cuisine, with its character and identity, feels good and confirms the chef in his choices, in this beautiful €94 menu offered at each service, and ending with a creation or the unavoidable soufflé of the moment. Service is attentive and in tune, and the wine cellar is eclectic, with serious references from all regions.
