L’ecailler du château

We went for my husband’s birthday, this was my second time there. We had excellent service, the pauses between courses is just right. We started with the platter of 12 huître Fines de Clair which were of great quality and the foie gras. My husband had the half lobster and I had the daurade royale grillé. Both were excellent, but I was surprised to get the whole fish and struggled a bit with the bones. The accompanying vegetables were not my favorite. For dessert I had the Moelleux tout chocolat sans gluten, very delicious. My husband had the Profiterole which looks very grand and came with an impressive birthday candle. We enjoyed the whole experience and we also met a very charming couple who we had a nice conversation with. Definitely recommend this restaurant for the seafood and service.

We came due to reviews of amazing food, friendly staff, value, gluten free and vegetarian options. The food was indeed amazing, the duck foie gras beautiful melt in your mouth, the duck breast rare and tender, the creme broulee smooth, creamy with the right amount of bitterness. Unfortunately the service seemed dreadful to us as tourists even though one of us spoke passable French. We had to ask for table water, for bread, had to flag down someone to order after waiting a long time. Our table didn't have salt and pepper. They tried to charge us for bottled water which we didn't have but were happy to amend the bill. There is only 1 vegetarian dish. It's a shame as the atmosphere and food were otherwise fantastic.
