Une très belle découverte ! Un accueil chaleureux par la patronne puis un service agréable mené par les serveuses souriantes et disponibles. Quant aux plats, de l'entrée au dessert, des saveurs qui font frémir les papilles ! Nous étions venus pour fêter nos un an de mariage, nous ressortons ravis de cet établissement ! A l'année prochaine lors de nos prochaines vacances !

Nous avons très bien mangé, les plats étaient bien présentés, bons, le service professionnel et avec le sourire. Le point négatif : nous avons choisi le menu Terre et Mer à 59€ et nous avons été déçus par le prix mais pas par la qualité de la cuisine. Explications : le foie gras en entrée était bien, mais après la fricassée de langoustine avec son andouille de Dinan aurait dû s'appeler andouille de Dinan accompagnée d'un extrait de langoustine... c'était néanmoins très bon et le dessert l'était également. Nous avons simplement trouvé que le prix était du coup un peu excessif par rapport à ce qu'on avait dans l'assiette. Nous recommandons tout de même ce restaurant, sachant que l'autre menu, celui en 3 vagues avait l'air d'une grande qualité et avec un meilleur rapport/qualité/prix.

Je recommande ce restaurant, nous passions assez souvent devant mais jamais arrêté. Donc pour mon anniversaire on c’est dit pourquoi ne pas testé! Et aucun regret nous avons passé un agréable moment, le personnel accueillant, super gentil. Tout étaient délicieux de l’entrée au dessert en passant même par les cocktails, je donne pas beaucoup d’avis, mais le je me devais d’en faire un! Nous y retournerons
