L'Embarcadere sur Blois

Good food in a pleasant setting

Lunch in a very pleasant setting with a beautiful view

We had much higher expectations for this restaurant. In our opinion, the ratings are clearly too high. The food was rather disappointing. The mashed potatoes were full of lumps and practically inedible. The octopus was tasteless and tough.

A very warm welcome. The children loved the mussels in cream sauce. Pleasant service from the waiters. 👍

Lovely welcome before opening time. Magnificent setting

A very nice establishment with very friendly staff. We booked through the website and requested a nice view, which we got. Good value for money, we'll definitely be back!

Excellent restaurant. Friendly welcome and efficient service. Fresh and flavorful cuisine. They reordered a slightly undercooked fish dish and it was perfect. Beautiful terrace overlooking a small branch of the Loire, with the river in the distance.

A superb culinary experience. As beautiful as it was delicious. A delightful time. Highly recommended.

L'Embarcadère, a charming little restaurant on the banks of the Loire. The welcome and service were excellent; the waiters were friendly and pleasant. The food was generally very good, however, not everything was perfect. For starters, we had the gravlax salmon and foie gras, which were delicious, but the croutons served with them were hard and stale. Luckily, the bread was fresh. For our main course, we chose the pollack fish and chips. The portion was generous, the fish was fresh, and the sauce was good, but the fries were just "ordinary" (I suspect they were frozen). The atmosphere was normal, a bit noisy as we were all on the shaded terrace, enjoying the heat, while the main dining room was open. It's a shame we didn't have the option of eating in the air conditioning. I will probably return later this year to try the "winter" menu.

Very, very friendly staff! Good food; very nice view from the terrace.
