"The restaurant of Hotel Castelbrac is named after the boat of Commander Charcot, a famous polar explorer. Born in Dinan, chef Julien Hennote has also explored other culinary universes, from the French Riviera to Polynesia. His cooking is testament to his fondness for produce of the local terroir and for sustainable coastal fishing (such as hand-dived scallops and abalone, lobster and seaweed) – demonstrating his respect for resources. His ambitious and elegant dishes abound with flavour; the desserts are wickedly decadent. Cosy dining area and panoramic terrace overlooking the sea, with Saint Malo in the distance." - Michelin Inspector

Absolutely no reason not to! Located in a boutique 5 stars hotel in Dinard (Brittany near St Malo), you’ll enjoy a luxurious setting, service, view and of course more importantly, food. So what’s interesting here? First the the setting ( view and service). 5 stars (and especially palaces) are always a notch above in terms of service. The brigade de salle is very well managed and efficient. Big fan of the plates. Fits perfectly the theme. And then the food. There’s some competition around, but for the price point, it’s a steal. It’s quite “gourmand “ (flavorsome), still balanced with a little touch of fun. Of course I’m more a specialist of the Parisian scene where I did them all but judging by what I tried in Brittany ( a dozen) this one is a very solid one star. If you can get a table, go and enjoy a great lunch.

Called in by chance, the waiter was very attentive and fitted me in with no hassle, where two other restaurants I tried wouldn't accept walk-ins. Superb lobster linguine, good selection of cheeses. The local artisan beer was a better choice than wine. Highly recommended.

Seafood and creative dishes! Highly recommend! The cosy dining rooms leads onto a panoramic terrace overlooking the pirate town of St Malo. The sommeliers are willing to recommend some wine to company with the dishes. I felt warm and respect from the staff. It’s a terrific place to have a business lunch or family vacation.

Terrible. You do not know what food you are ordering ! “It’s a surprise”. Yes the sardines were a surprise…and awful ! No one at our table took more than 1 bite. Awful wine selection… this experience cause us to cancel reservations at Michelin starred restaurants for the next 2 nights. “It’s a surprise” is the same as “ leftovers in the fridge “. Arrogance beyond belief. Other diners in t shirts… we will never trust Michelin guide again.

Nous avons passé une soirée d'anniversaire mémorable. La vue sur la baie, parsemée de bateaux face à Saint-Malo, ajoutait une touche magique à l'atmosphère. Le vin recommandé par le sommelier était une véritable merveille, bien en accord avec chaque plat. Le menu en huit services nous a enchantés. La présentation, exécutée avec une mise en scène théâtrale et un grand sens du détail.
