La Table du Gantier sur Saint-Junien

Absolutely fantastic, nothing to say, a marvel 😁✌️

Excellent from start to finish. Very competent staff, attentive to the customer. Perfect value for money. Very clean.

What a delightful time we had at this restaurant in Saint-Junien! The welcome was warm and the atmosphere truly pleasant. We savored dishes that were as beautiful as they were delicious. I particularly appreciated the elegant presentation, especially the starter with the shellfish nestled on a creamy bed and garnished with delicate herbs. Everything was perfectly executed. We will gladly return to try the rest of the menu. This is a place to discover without hesitation for lovers of fine cuisine.

As usual, excellent service and quality. A real treat! 👌

This modest sized restaurant feels very spacious inside due to the unusual white pine panelling. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and the ambience is relaxed. I started with the duo of foie gras de canard which was excellent! Two pieces were chilled slices and two pieces were grilled “crème brulée” with a layer of sugar on top. Most creative as the cooked foie gras becomes the ‘cream’ - brilliant! My main course was veal kidneys (always a treat in France as you never see them on the menu in England) in garlic and parsley butter. Also very good, though slightly spoiled by the fact that the garde manger forgot to wash the lettuce (lots of gravel crunching - not good). The bread here is fantastic! Everything I visit France for. Dessert was a novel take on tiramisu involving crème chantilly, apples and pineau des Charentes in place of coffee and Marsala. Not really a success, but a noble failure.

Excellent food and a very welcoming atmosphere.

A truly wonderful place in the heart of Saint-Junien! You immediately sense the restaurant's character, with a setting that beautifully honors the local heritage. It's the kind of place where you feel warmly welcomed, unpretentious yet highly professional. As for the food, it's top-notch. The portions are generous, and you can tell the ingredients are carefully selected. I particularly appreciated the balance of flavors: it's a modern take on traditional regional cuisine that doesn't try too hard, but hits the mark perfectly. The only slight drawback, which explains my 4 stars instead of 5, was the slightly long wait between courses that day. But honestly, the quality of the food and the friendliness of the staff quickly make you forget this minor detail. An authentic restaurant that I wholeheartedly recommend if you're ever in the area!

A very good restaurant in the area; the meat was excellent.
