Gault&Millau's review 2026

Located on the Butte Sainte-Anne, this establishment cultivates the spirit of a lively neighborhood bistro, supported by a warm welcome and a loyal clientele. The short, easy-to-read daily menu is rooted in the traditional. The scallops à la nantaise, served in shell, are a real delicacy. Hake fillet, served with freekeh and a creamy fumet, highlights precise cooking and delicate flesh. For dessert, the floating island with pink praline adds a regressive, comforting touch. Service, provided by a small, versatile team, maintains a simple, friendly relationship with customers. The lively atmosphere reflects the spirit of the place, which is firmly rooted in its neighborhood. The wine cellar offers a varied selection of wines by the glass to complete the bistro experience.
