Royal Saintes sur Saintes

The food was good but nothing exceptional. It's a shame the pork and sweetbreads came from Germany and the Netherlands... 102 euros for 2 (including 3 glasses of wine).

I had dinner at Le Saintonge last night with my partner. The atmosphere was hushed and very calm; it was very soothing. The waiter was discreet, very friendly, and attentive. We each had an aperitif with amuse-bouches, which was perfect. We each chose the same Saintonge menu: foie gras tiramisu as a starter, beef fillet with mashed potatoes and vegetables, and a trompe-l'oeil dessert. Everything was perfect: refined dishes with beautiful presentation; we feasted our eyes beforehand! 😊 The meat was cooked to perfection for both of us. Kudos to the chef and the cooks for all their hard work. We had a very pleasant time, feeling privileged by the impeccable service, the presentation, and of course, the delicious taste of our meals. I highly recommend this restaurant, which deserves a Michelin star.

Exceptional! I still remember it years later. A brasserie price, but the quality of the food, efficiency, and service are worthy of a Michelin star. Bravo!

Overall, a very good experience. Without questioning the quality of the dishes, which were all well-cooked and the desserts were also very good, the only downside was the non-alcoholic cocktail. It tasted like a mixed fruit drink straight from the carton. A slice of dry lime for garnish and/or a drizzle of syrup to add color would have given it the appearance of being more carefully prepared. The service was quick; we were a party of five at 1 p.m. on a Wednesday with a few other tables. There was an error on the whisky menu (which was overpriced); the Shivas was not a 21-year-old but a 12-year-old.

A very good place with consistently excellent service and a smile. A place to recommend without hesitation.

The class is gone...and so are the quality and quantity. Six olives for three people with cocktails costing 8 euros! We've had much better at this place. What a shame...

The weekday lunch menu is very appealing and changes regularly. In a vintage setting, the staff gives you a warm welcome. A must-try, and worth repeating.

We have been customers for years, and the chef has once again managed to surprise us with a veal sweetbread on the menu today, accompanied by a colorful and flavorful side dish. The welcome is always warm and friendly, and the staff offers excellent advice on wine pairings. The best value for money in the region.

A little disappointed. But the place is still nice.
