L'instinct gourmand

Rightly in the Michelin guide. Simple place with food that speaks for itself. The octopus terrine was the hit for me. Chunky and perfectly seasoned. Unusual and brilliant. The peas with the veal were also amazing. Cherries three ways were also a great way to finish. Professional, friendly service. The front of house guy worked with Raymond Blanc. No wonder the food so good. Also very good value with three courses.

We were a table of five, and all of us loved the food. The cod and the lamb were cooked to the exact point. The desserts were beautifully plated and creative. Sylvan made sure our experience was great. He gave us an amuse bouche after each course and plenty of delicious bread.

Delicious food and amazing price/quality. The service was uncanny and made us feel super confortable. Missing a little ambient music as background sound.

Excellent food, the chef really understands flavour and the combinations are perfect. We had 3 courses but they also give amuse bouche and predessert. It is not expensive compared to the quality of the restaurant. The serving lady was very warm and friendly

We had dinner here with our friends and the service and food were wonderful. Our server was super friendly and accommodating. One of us didn't eat meat and she offered to swap out the carb with meat for something else. She also gave good recommendations of local wine for us to try. We highly recommend!

Amazing menu for dinner, rapport quality/price is completely accurate. The waitress was extremely nice and friendly Special 5 stars for their fondant au chocolate et son cœur caramel beurre salé

Simply one of the best restaurants in Nantes! Very cosy restaurant so you need to make a reservation no matter when you go. The quality of the food and service is incredible, had he best magret de canard here. The entrée (rabbit) and dessert (madeleine cake) were phenomenal as well. The atmosphere is absolutely lovely — must go!

Magnificent meal. My favorite of four weeks traveling in Atlantic France, and we have been to many including two Michelin rated (which are wonderful but overwrought). Each dish used very fresh local ingredients combined in a fine balance of many components. A starter bouche, followed by a fresh open ravioli with complexity in perfect balance (a crisp, seafood foam, black sesame cracker, mushroom and celery sautéed with dollops of chèvre and other flavors). My main was a slow cooked rump that tasted like a tender tender flavorful short rib, with masterfully prepared trumpet mushrooms, squash mash, and other tastes and a beef au jus, all in a balanced and complex flavor. My wife had the fish shown which was also superb. A pre-dessert bouche of an ice cream ball with chocolate and hints of anise. Dessert was a haute apple dish of complexity and balance: minced green apple with an apple foam and apple sorbet and smatter of fresh apple sauce, caramelized sugar crisp, and cinnamon (?) sugar granules. Just fantastic! Ended with a cafe noisette, and went home quite happy. Very friendly and delicious!

A wonderful little bistrot with lots of flavor. The service is excellent and the menu was inventive and each dish was superbly executed! Can't say much more than "Fantastique!"
