L'ardoise sur Calais

Third visit to this restaurant. The first two experiences were very satisfactory, which makes this last one all the more disappointing. Having come for Grandmothers' Day, we noticed several unavailability points as early as 1 p.m., with some dishes already unavailable and a rather limited menu. The gourmet coffee was also quite average. For a bill of €160, we expected better planning for what was sure to be a very busy day. On the plus side: the welcome and service were pleasant. It's a shame, because we had very fond memories of our previous visits. Hello, (in response to your comment). Thank you for your reply. Just to clarify: I am a woman, not a man. We arrived around 1 p.m. this Sunday, Grandmothers' Day, which doesn't seem particularly late for lunch service. Upon arrival, the suggested dish was foie gras, not the scallops mentioned in your reply. Furthermore, some dishes were already unavailable, notably the sea bream. Regarding the wine, we had ordered a half-bottle of Pouilly-Fuissé; a half-bottle of Sancerre was brought to us instead without any mention that the requested wine was no longer available. Fortunately, we noticed this before the restaurant opened. Your response suggests that these issues did not occur, however, this is simply what we observed during our visit. My review therefore accurately reflects the experience we had that day, which is the very essence of a customer review.

Great foodie spot in Calais. Good atmosphere.

Good meal Good atmosphere Beautiful decor

A very good restaurant in a pleasant setting overlooking the Place d'Armes in Calais. Upstairs, you'll find a varied but not overwhelming menu, which is a sign of quality. The staff is welcoming, smiling, and always available. Whether you're in a group or as a couple, you won't be disappointed; personally, I'll be back.

We left Ostend on an unexpectedly rainy Sunday for Calais. We stopped around 1 p.m. to get something to eat and passed L'Ardoise, which was packed. We were eventually given a table upstairs, which was also extremely crowded. We had an aperitif, a starter, a main course, and a dessert, along with coffee. The food was excellent, the service impeccable, and all for €65. If we're ever back in the area, we'll definitely go back.

I was pleasantly surprised by the staff's welcome. They were very attentive and offered excellent advice. The food was excellent, the only slight drawback was the lack of homemade fries! We will return on our next trip to Calais.

I was very well received, but my dish, entrecote angus, was as hard as shoe leather.

From the moment we walked in, the welcome was very friendly and pleasant. The service was perfect, and the staff was attentive to our every need. 😁 This was our second visit, and it was just as enjoyable as the first. Well done to the whole team for these moments we love so much. Keep up the good work! 👍👍 We will definitely be back to our favorite restaurant in Calais. 😉 See you soon!

Very good service and good food

Very welcoming, satisfactory value for money. According to the menu, everything is homemade.
