I enjoyed this restaurant. The atmosphere was nice and relaxed, not uptight or posh. Produce was fresh and bread was also nice. Dessert was the best :) Was it the most creative dish I’ve tasted? No. But, I can see why they have a Michelin star ⭐ I would come back here again for a nice, small celebration to whatever in life.

Nice and cozy venue not too far from the main downtown area. Food was good, I enjoyed the appetizer with langoustines. The veal was original with the asparagus focaccia. Nice and light citric dessert. Bread was ok. Service was relatively fast. Nice selection of wine bottles.

Such an amazing experience! The food left us speechless. The combination of the ingredients and the presentation were marvelous, everything on the menu was well-thought, pure art and science blended together. The service was excellent as well - so friendly, sweet and knowledgeable. Probably one of the best restaurants we’ve ever been to. They definitely deserve a Michelin star (or even several)

Why does this not have a Michelin star? Superb. Fabulous food with option of sublime wine/drink pairings. Choose 2, 3, 5 or 7 courses (with choices for each) with or without wine pairing (but their wine selection is excellent). Each dish is described in detail (French or English) by the server. They are complex and full of (sometimes unexpected) flavours. Just brilliant.

Great service, great atmosphere, nice/classy, without being stuffy. My wife and I had the 5 course meal and got help from their sommelier with a wine choice... a great night. We don't often splurge this much on one night but, but it was definitely worth it!

Wonderful Culinarie experience. Best food we found in Rouen! From starter to dessert everything delicious and well presented. I especially loved the rhubarb dessert. We had the three course menu and spent about €100 for two people including an amazing glass of white wine and water.
