I've been going to this restaurant for years and was friends with the previous owners. It changed hands a few years ago but has remained pretty much the same - except the handwiting on the chalkboards is now much more legible! Anyway, still very good and excellent value.

I book this restaurant 2 week before arriving by phone, and my reservation was conformed. We arrive exactly at booked time and restaurant was close. No notes, no information. No body answer on phone. Very not professional!!!

We got the last free table for dinner on Bastille Day and felt very lucky! We had the set menu which was excellent value for money as the food was really good. There was a good choice of wines too at reasonable prices and the service was friendly.

Very good restaurant in Vannes, but go early (before 12:45) because there are only 10 tables. Only one waiter but a hard worker. Fishes and good Burgundy and Lorire white wines.
