L'escargot 49

A restaurant situated away from the tourist centre. We had a very delicious meal - have eaten lots of duck breasts on this trip and tonight’s was the most tender with a delicious combination of flavours. The beef also tasty with fresh seasonal vegetables. Waitstaff friendly and helpful. Highly recommend you eat here!

We arrived Saumur around 7PM, we found this restaurant near our apt and accept walk-ins. Was a very decent and lovely meal, cozy and neat decor, each dish tasted great and not too heavy in cream and butter.

Excellent excellent food. Go for the: shrimps as a starter, the rack of lamb as main, and the French toad for desert. They are all great. The menu is in French only, but the waiter is very helpful. Reservation is probably advised. We came on a Monday, off season, and it was packed.

Good experience there, nice terrasse, menu bistro type with good and fresh products, original recipes with some fusion notes. Local wines with good deals. Efficient service

Always a great meal. Highly recommended. We will be back soon.

I had a wonderful lunch which was so tasty and just perfect.m, the snails was done 3 different ways which was so delicious. The wine pairing was perfect and I had the best Chinon Rosé yet!

Excellent food with superb presentation served by patient waitress, owing to our limited French, on the terrace.

Awesome restaurant, friendly helpful staff and excellent skilled chef / owner (who we had the pleasure to meet with after our dinner). Cozy spot in the garden to dine at, food was delicious and creative. The wines recommended and served were amazing too (complementing all the dishes we ate so nicely). Short 5-10mins stroll from the centre of the town, highly recommend this hidden gem of a restaurant which we discovered by chance upon a recommendation by one of our hotel reception staff (who said it is her fav restaurant to eat at in Samur!). Please visit and enjoy as much as we did...thank you for an excellent meal!! Cheers
