"Great food, lovely dining room, but very formal. Attention to detail was excellent. Staff very attentive"
My wife raved about this restaurant due to previous experiences there, so it was meant to be one (admittedly of several) of the culinary highlights of our recent visit to Brittany. It wasn't at all bad, but it didn't live up to the price tag. We chose the 'Menu inspiration du chef', and so let them choose for us. We had John Dory and rhubarb (yes, really). Good, well executed, but I really felt that the chef was being a bit too clever. Other courses were fine. Then, what should have been the piece de resistance was the biggest let-down: a fillet of beef that was unforgivably tough. The usual slick service you'd expect in a French restaurant, and, sitting near the herb-garden in the courtyard...
We have had a 2nd home in the region for 21 years, and have tried almost all restaurants for miles around. This used to be a seriously-starred place, with prices and pretensions to match -fine for a very special occasion, but too much for regular visits. It now retains a high level of classic French cuisine with more modest prices - basic menu at €25 is brilliant, and the wine prices are reasonable - so about €75 for two including wine. The welcome is pleasant and unpretentious, while retaining the classic features of a fine French restaurant, with close attention to the ingredients and details. Try the creme brulée! And the choice of three Muscadets. We thoroughly recommend this place.
Tried the seasonal menu on Saturday night and the food was fabulous, so well presented and the table service was excellent. Lots of choice if that's what you want but we went for the set menu/choice and we weren't disappointed. Our highlights were, the lobster dish and all the little extra courses throughout the meal. The overall ambiance of the restaurant made the whole evening a very pleasant one. This is a place not to miss if you are staying around La Roche Bernard.
Lovely dining room arranged around a beautiful little courtyard,this Auberge derserves to be more highly rated. We were told by anther couple that the previous chef had 2 Michelin stars and from our experience this one is well on track. Service was delightful,food at under 40euros was superb throughout.Do not be put off by the closed front door!

Like winning the Trifecta. Didn't know it was open, didn't have a booking and didn't have a recommendation. Greeted by the chef, Open, full, but they made up a table for us. Food was awesome (Impressionnant). Best steak I have had in France (Chateaubriant) and the deserts are to die for. We will be back.
We stayed here for one night and eat in the restaurant and the food was superb one of the best whilst on this trip highly recommend the hotel and restaurant
Excellent meal, devised by a Michelin star chef. Beautiful flavours. Very good wine list. Amazing value for money.
