L'essentiel - Reservar una mesa

If you want to eat in the most beautiful setting of the city's brine, you have to come here, just at the foot of the beautifully lit castle that you can admire by climbing the few steps that lead to the entrance of the restaurant, behind the annoying hotel. only hic: parking is very difficult nearby...The reception is both professional and charming; The service will not be left. small suggestion however: a saucer for bread would be welcome, especially since (as almost everywhere else currently) there are no taps on the tables.Let's now talk of the plate. After the excellent rosé cream of the aperitif, we chose the menu the essential with inlet one the red tuna and the other the foie gras poached on velvety of lentils. the tuna, prepared a little to the Japanese, was according to my companion of a perfect freshness and taste. for me, I regretted that the portion of foie gras is congrue and therefore drowned in the filling, but this defect is obviously easy to correct. the wild bar that followed us very much, with its deliciously crispy skin. note: the happy marriage of these dishes with a bottle of clay vouvray . to close this dinner in lightness and greediness, we ordered blown. the least we can say is that we were not disappointed !bref, a pleasant experience, even if it is necessary to know that the menu price is a misleading tantinet: a supplement was expected for almost everything we had chosen. In any event, the essential is an address to be recommended right now, even if you can imagine that the kitchen will still evolve.

we're probably evaluating our meal here among the top 20 we've ever had! it was excellent in every sight and this small atmospheric restaurant deserves its michelin recognition we were 3 nights in the hotel anne d’Anjou and I had assumed that this was the hotel restaurant and she asked for a reservation in our first night. I had not searched any details and only at the arrival I discovered that it was actually owned and managed independently of the hotel and in the did, while a part of the building has separate access. the personal was perfect. and friendly, without being ott. we chose one of the flavors that came with different amuse bouche extras. the scallop essence was especially good. our starter was foie gras followed by the best cooked lamb I tasted. my soufflé was also done and the cheese card of my wife offered a great selection of well-presented local products. the wine list was comprehensive and favorable. we chose a local saumur wein. there is a master chef here. we wanted to book again before we were gone, but unfortunately the restaurant was already fully booked. they would be very happy to get a table here without reservation. only one problem occurred when my bill was raised by a wrong decimal point by 10x. I even signed it! this was immediately determined by the staff and an immediate refund. the last bill represented really excellent value. we would like to return and recommend L’essentiel best.

experience without fault: presentation of very well-kept dishes, quality products, tastes and cuisine mastered to perfection, originality, chords and wines very fair, all for a reasonable price. we will finally regret the size of the portions (it is so good that we would eat more) service at the top. You can go with your eyes closed!
