Le Relais Montois - Reservar una mesa

We were in Pontorson on a Sunday evening. To be fair, there are not many restaurants open for Sunday dinner, but the Relais Montais was so we looked at the menu which was in the window. Among the pizzas and tagines, I was pleased to see "Sea Bass with Scallops" which I liked the sound off, and my wife fancied a steak, so in we went.I have spent a lot of time and France, and I speak the language fairly well. I ordered Fois Gras as a starter for both of us, and the Sea Bass for me, and a steak with chips and french beans for my wife. So far, so good.About 15 minutes later the waiter brought the starters and put them in front of us. As he placed them, he told me that there was no sea bass, so I...

We found this brasserie just by chance on a cold damp October night in Pontorson. Madame (the owner) was very welcoming, as were all her staff. We went there several times, sometimes just for a drink but we also had two evening meals there. A big plus was they allowed our dog in and also they were open on Sunday evening when most other places were shut. The decor is a bit dated, but the food was very tasty and we felt it was good value. Try the succulent local moules, the lamb chops or the Moroccan cuisine (cous cous or a tagine). By the end of our stay we were on handshaking terms with Madame and her staff!

One of us has couscous. Couscous with veg in broth and separate chicken was good.The steak however was terrible. Ordered entrecôte Fraincaise. Was tough, sinewy and full of yellow fat. The cat at our accomodation scored as we took most of steak back home.The payment by card was also a problem, with poor reception of card machine, waitress having to hold machine in a particular place to get reception, and. Owner trying to get us to pay cash.

It's s shame that Brits are still seen as an easy target in some establishments. Two of our party of eight asked for an adult-sized chicken nuggets meal form the kids menu. We didn’t expect to pay the advertised 8 Euros but were surprised to be charged double – 16 Euros, for effectively an extra 3 chicken nuggets. Patron not interested when challenged. Shame as the meal was otherwise pretty good.

Had excellent food here. Chèvre chaud, pizza and a crepe. The food was great, very quick service and very welcoming environment. Just a bit too pricey for my liking, which was a shame as I deliberately stayed in Pontorson to avoid being fleeced in mont st michel itself.
