L'ardoise sur Calais

Extremely pleasant service with excellent, well-prepared food. A great gin menu and helpful advice.

We had made a reservation on Monday for a Friday visit. Upon arrival, with two toddlers, a stroller, and two pregnant women, the waiter didn't know where to seat us. This already put us off somewhat. Once seated, the music proved to be truly disturbing. Furthermore, hearing one of the waitresses complain from beginning to end of the meal, for various reasons, and reprimand the young servers who were doing their best despite the busy service, made the experience even less pleasant. However, the fact that this same waitress felt entitled to yell at my daughter, then immediately changed her attitude, becoming excessively sweet when she realized I was nearby, is simply unacceptable. It's a disgrace. We understand that your job can be difficult, but if customer interaction becomes unbearable, perhaps you should consider a different career path. The restaurant's interior is relatively small, and children don't run on batteries, so yes, a child will play while waiting for their order, Madam. Don't accept so many customers and reservations if you can't deliver afterward. To end on a positive note: the meal was very good.

Absolutely perfect! The servers were fantastic, the service was quick and attentive, and the meal was excellent! We recommend it 100%!

The staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was superb.

Great atmosphere. Very pleasant and attentive staff. Just a little disappointed with the ham hock.

We came for dinner after the beach, nice little restaurant! My children ate very well. I have one small complaint about my meal. The owner at the bar offered me a small digestif to make up for the inconvenience, a nice cognac that wasn't even on the menu! I commend the professionalism and the table service. Thank you to the team!

From the welcome to the food, I highly recommend this place. We'll definitely be back to enjoy discovering other dishes.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic experience at L'Ardoise in Calais Nord! Enthusiastic welcome, quick and efficient service. Special mention to the staff, very friendly and full of humor, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend it!

Top-notch restaurant! The owner is fantastic! And she takes great care of her customers! I highly recommend it. It's always a pleasure to dine in this kind of atmosphere and restaurant.

Highly recommended, as always on our visits to Calais. One of the best value-for-money establishments near the Place d'Armes. The staff are polite, smiling, and helpful. We also had a very good meal. See you soon!
