La Criee Olivet

Having scoured TA for restaurants in Olivet we settled on this one. Imagine our surprise when we found it. It was not nestled in a picturesque square in town or even perched on the banks of the Loire. No this one sits on the edge of a retail park next to a fast moving dual carriageway. The terrace, where we had a delicious meal overlooks the car wash next to an enormous E.Leclerc. Nevertheless, the welcome was warm. There were linen tablecloths on the inside tables and linen napkins on all tables. This is a seafood restaurant. Don't waste your time if you don't like seafood!We had grilled sardines to start. My husband had sea bass with crevettes & dauphinois potatoes for a main. I had a plate of various seafoods all beautifully presented accompanied by excellent chips and home made mayonnaise. For dessert we both had a dark chocolate fondant. Wine @€20 was a bit dear, but the total meal 3 courses + wine + coffee was just over €80 for the two of us. E cel lent value we thought. The service was courteous, efficient & charming. We would definitely visit again if we are in the area.

my own and my husband ate here on the way back to england. if they want to avoid the usual chain restaurants, it is a good choice. If they don't like fish, it is not! we had the fish and chips well cooked and presented, expensive but for what. they get. restaurant lacks ambiente, service is professional, but without warmth. no complaining, but no wow factor.

efficient and quick service , good fish and seafood , vast parking place and easy access . Right side usually sunnier at midday than the left one , and therefore more pleasant .
