L'Atelier Gourmand sur Ascain

A very pleasant experience, with simple yet delicious cuisine. Impeccable welcome and service. Several set menus are offered, as well as an à la carte menu ranging from traditional dishes to more classic fare.

We had a great time at this restaurant. The food was very good and the waiter was fantastic and had a great sense of humor 😊

Excellent food at very affordable prices. A lovely waiter, a restaurant you'll want to return to. Thank you for a wonderful time. Cat, Fred, and Bao the bulldog

We came to eat during the transhumance. We arrived at noon and left at 3 p.m., having ordered one main course per adult, dessert for my husband, and a children's menu for our daughter. From a professional standpoint, as a restaurant owner, I felt the staff was overwhelmed by the number of customers. Whether it was a lack of staff relative to the number of diners, poor organization, or a failure to anticipate the potentially higher attendance due to the event, it's difficult to pinpoint the exact cause, but we clearly sensed a high level of tension among the team, who were running around frantically during service. As for the food, the quality was quite good, but we found the portions rather small considering the price of the bill. In the end, three hours spent at the restaurant for a relatively simple meal is a long time, and the experience unfortunately fell short of our expectations. We fully understand that an event can lead to an unusual influx of customers and complicate service. However, better planning would undoubtedly have allowed for a more efficient management of the day, both for the customers and the staff. It's a shame, because despite the food being of a fairly satisfactory quality, we left disappointed with the experience.

Excellent restaurant and cuisine. The chef and his team are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always with a smile. Everything is perfect, and I highly recommend this restaurant. I've been coming to this restaurant for the past two years whenever I'm in the Basque Country, and of course, I'll be back on my next trip. It's fantastic!

Very good, very welcoming. Friendly staff, open kitchen, kind chef. Beautiful green setting.

A very beautiful and charming place, with very pleasant and smiling servers, and excellent, generous cuisine... Absolutely fantastic, we highly recommend it!

Coming from La Rochelle, we discovered this superb restaurant. The dishes were beautiful and very fresh, the value for money was more than fair, and the staff was very pleasant. Highly recommended.

I had a wonderful time at this restaurant; the quality of the food and the ingredients used was simply perfect. The staff and the chef, who is also the owner, were incredibly welcoming. Thank you again for a lovely experience! I highly recommend visiting if you're ever in Ascain.

A very nice establishment. The service was efficient and the advice helpful. And finally, the quality of the food. For me, it was perfect. Very generous portions and excellent quality. I recommend the mixed fish platter and the pork tomahawk steak.
