Discovered this restaurant because I was looking for a gluten-free restaurant, a first for me... A real treat for the taste buds, a delight! As a bonus, a surprise at the back of the restaurant... A garden, a cocoon after the bustle of the market 😊 the whole team takes great care... In a word TOPISSIME!!!
Little advice: remember to book 😉
A very warm welcome, it feels so good, it’s cozy
The cakes are refined, the menu is nice, it's gluten-free, vegetable cream, fine milk,.......
I recommend it, tea, coffee, selection
A superb place to discover
Next time you should be more kind and empathetic towards your customers. 25 minutes drive for gluten-free bread and I am told that the bread will not be ready until 9:30 a.m. like every morning. It's not the first time I've bought it, I was never told that it wasn't available when I opened it, which I would have understood in fact, I explained it to the saleswoman , mentioning to her that it would be nice to be notified in these cases.
I just had the right to say: 'have a good day anyway' with a superior air from the blonde, she should keep it to herself next time because it is unspeakably rude to take people high like that! .
That's it, you're on M6, and you're thinking about it now. Come back down because the products are not that good either. No need to answer, save your energy to better satisfy your customers
Very warm welcome with smiles, very pleasant. Simple, careful and excellent cuisine. Marathon weekend with adapted menu and a gluten-free person without any problem. Home cooking and it shows.
Hotel of very good standard and ideally located in the city.
Very neat and tasteful decoration of the establishment. Very quiet hotel.
Our room was very clean, very cozy, with very high quality bedding. Perfect bathroom. No noise pollution.
Special mention for the very varied buffet breakfast. From sweet to savory, there is something for everyone. Homemade products (shortbread, cake, etc.) and very fresh. Everything is planned, even for people who want to eat healthily (wholemeal bread, oatmeal, soy milk, skyr, eggs, cheese, ham, gluten-free bread, nuts, dried fruit, fresh fruit, etc.)
Very warm welcome as well.
The only downside is the private parking where the spaces are a little too small if you have a large vehicle.
We will return to this hotel without any hesitation. Everything was perfect.
We were looking for a vegan and gluten-free birthday cake and we found what we were looking for, to the greatest satisfaction of our guests. The 2 cakes made were unanimous: not only were they beautiful but they were excellent with just the right amount of sugar. In short, we really liked it. Little more, the cakes perfectly withstood the 700 km of transport that we put them through... A great success. THANKS !!
This is my HQ. I have an allergy problem. So suffice to say that gluten prevents me from going to a lot of restaurants. But at Mamie Bigoude, there are pancakes. I enjoy it every time. Being disabled, I am often at the bottom. But on two occasions, even though it wasn't easy for me, I wanted to go upstairs. I didn't regret the "bedroom" area, I loved it. The staff are lovely and attentive. I recommend. The only regret is that it's not big enough because places are quickly reserved 😅
The place is quiet, the waiter is very friendly, I think it's really good for the price. We have a multitude of choices, they make pancakes with 100% buckwheat flour, therefore gluten-free, which is very good for me because I am allergic to it. It is very suitable for children. I think this creperie is very good and I highly recommend it.

Magnificent hotel, I really appreciated the decor which was both chic and warm with some touches of African art. Everything is new, both luxury and cozy! Excellent welcome, attentive, while being discreet. Spacious room, excellent bedding, very high quality skincare products (organic). Location near the station, perfect for business trips: the center and the port are very close but you can enjoy the peace and quiet. Quite exceptional buffet, very wide choice, including detox and gluten-free! I really liked the calm and serenity of the place...
Monvoisin is a little tucked away but what a lovely surprise. The decor is clean and fresh. The chairs are comfortable. The waitress spoke English and was very helpful translating the menu for us and checking with the chef about gluten.
I had bass and my partner had beef, both were cooked to perfection and the best we had ever had, all at a reasonable price. We had a lovely evening.
We will definitely be back next time we are in La Rochelle.
Great lunch with family! My 6-year old daughter had the avocado toast glutenfree - the restaurant staff knew what they were doing and my coeliac daughter enjoyed the meal! Great options for vegetarians as well. Although we found the music a bit loud, it's a small but cosy place!
Such fantastic delicious food. My family and I loved it here, interesting menu and very friendly staff.
My parents’ gluten intolerance was no issue and they found safe food with no issues that they really enjoyed.
I would really recommend this restaurant, it was a highlight of our trip.
Everything is perfect!! Home, setting and menu. We tested the evening slate. Starter main course dessert at €24.90 with a magnificent presentation and flavors to die for. Special attention for my gluten intolerance. What a shame to live so far away. Go there with your eyes closed, but remember to book.
I came to eat in this restaurant for a surprise birthday, the meal was very good and a little extra, they were able to accommodate my gluten-free request due to celiac disease. We had a room just for our group, which was very pleasant.
The service is impeccable, cleanliness is present everywhere, even in the bathrooms.
Thank you for this good meal.
April 2022: During a walk in La Rochelle we stopped at Amorino for a waffle (just to change ice cream)
I had the waffle sticks and a latte.
I recently had braces and as a result they are very easy to eat and very soft.
Installed on the terrace, we were comfortable there.
September 2021: My favorite ice cream parlor.
Nestled on the Cours des dames facing the port, this ice cream parlor is my must-visit in La Rochelle
I love the choice of Vegan flavors and the possibility of choosing a gluten-free Cornet.
The presentation is really top notch!
Back in La Rochelle I couldn't resist having a cone at Amorino.
Their sorbets are simply delicious.

Excellent hospitality and food/drink with very reasonable prices. Antoine was extremely friendly and looked after us on several occasions. As a coeliac, it is often difficult to eat out, but the meal here was outstanding quality and free from gluten. I had tuna steak with salad and potatoes followed by creme caramel. My wife had a sea-food platter and chocolate mousse for desert. Apologies for the half eaten dishes. They were so tasty, and we started eating before taking a picture 😂, not realising how good they tasted when we started.
Highly recommend this restaurant.
I 100% recommend this restaurant. The staff is extremely kind and takes great care of their customers. I am severely intolerant to gluten, they offered to make me a suitable meal or even give me the opportunity to bring my own meal, to be able to enjoy this moment with my family.
They were all won over by the dishes they had chosen.
Very good experience in La Rochelle. We were looking for a restaurant to eat with gluten-free options since my daughter has celiac disease... at Le Benèze they treated us very well, with great kindness and empathy and my daughter was able to eat properly.
5* dinner at Dijo!
We had dinner on the terrace with friends at Dijo on Friday May 10. What an incredible discovery!!
The restaurant is located very close to the old port, in a very pleasant pedestrian street. The decoration is very neat and gives a lot of charm to this Rochelais restaurant.
We were warmly welcomed, and the service was efficient and very pleasant!
The products are refined, the dishes tasty and the presentation very well done. The restaurant has an interesting wine list and Capucine provides very good advice. Not to mention the digestive menu…!!
Also a perfect place for people who eat gluten-free: starter, main course, dessert naturally gluten-free or adapted by the chef, served with gluten-free buckwheat bread like you rarely see in restaurants (just remember to warn them at the time of booking)
To finish the dinner, the chef came to discuss with us the origin of his products and his way of imagining recipes and cooking them.
A huge thank you and a big congratulations to Melvin and Capucine! We are already looking forward to our next visit to La Rochelle to come and taste the new menu from Dijo!
Very good, refined and plentiful, possibility of requesting gluten-free.
The service is impeccable, very attentive staff.
Finally, they agreed without any problem to heat the dish for my intolerant daughter.
Not knowing they could cook it.
Really a very good address.
To recommend
We went here two times due to son being gluten free. The remembered us and really looked after us. The food is cooked fresh and so tasty . I believe this is a must for anyone going to La Rochelle . And if sunny they give you a hat!
Great experience both for the quality of the products and for the service. Special mention for the minced steak and fries that my daughter, who is celiac, was able to eat without fear of gluten contamination. We recommend!
The Saoufé counter is quite simply a gem in La Rochelle. The welcome from Jérémie, the owner, his wife, his colleague (a very talented shucker) and his brother is simply perfect. The sense of service is not an empty word.
The products are local, fresh and available.
The menu is compact (a sign of quality and freshness, respect for the seasonality of the products and the customer's desires) but it allows you to find what you're looking for, between land and sea, whatever your taste.
Everyone can find their own little place: front terrace, tables in the dining room, small high chair at the counter and back terrace (more intimate because on a small street).
The service is respectful of the customer's temporality, warm and expert.
Celiacs are welcome. Allergens are clearly notified and double checked.
The address is excellent!
We arrived late due to an accident on the road, and yet the service was impeccable despite our late arrival, the lunch was well presented. The kitchen perfectly respected food allergies: gluten and lactose.
And above all we ate well in quantity and quality. I highly recommend
