“ Fast service, nice staff and great price! Would definitely come back!! ”
“ Busy and popular French bistro/restaurant run by a cheeky bilingual team. Ate upstairs off the Formule menu - 2 courses for €25~,3 for €29~. Fruit de mer looked excellent but sadly didn't have enough time to eat it but will revisit! Pate starter was very good followed by fish encroute which looked ordinary but tasted delicious ”
“ Such a welcoming restaurateur!! Excellent fresh seafood in St Malo France. Authentic flavors and service with many smiles and laughter. Being here really added to the enjoyment of our trip to France ????????!!! ”
“ The Poisson en Croûte was pure perfection—flaky fish wrapped in a golden, buttery crust, soaking up that herb-garlic beurre blanc like magic. The roasted veggies added a deep, smoky char, while the crispy potato chips brought just the right amount of crunch. Then came the duo of velvety mashed potatoes and the rich, slightly sweet purple yam-onion purée, layering on even more depth. Every bite was a masterclass in balance and texture. Paired with an ice-cold Leffe, it cut through the richness beautifully. ”
“ We had a lovely lunch there. Not bad for a first meal in St Malo. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The mussels were amazing. I love their home made frites too. ”
