06/04/2026: Too much foam on everything. It is nice but not when you cover all the ingredients with it. You’ll have to guess what you are tasting the fish or the foam for example.

02/04/2026: We couldn't have lunch at your restaurant because it was closed, but thank you so much for the recommendation to go to another restaurant (I won't say which one). Lunch was excellent. We'll be back next time!

29/03/2026: Lovely little restaurant, very good cosy place with attentive staff

28/03/2026: Beautiful setting, impeccable service. We came for the weekend…we'll definitely have to come back 🤗

17/03/2026: A great place for lunch in Saint Emilion. In fact, I had one of my favourite meals so far this trip. I struggle with how heavy many lunches are in France. L’Absolu had lighter options including warm goat cheese salad which was fantastic. We arrived a bit late considering we had a tour starting at 2 but we were in and out in just less than an hour. We ate inside where the dining room is in a cave. Definitely recommend. Posted this to the wrong profile before. Oops.

29/03/2026: We had the pleasure of lunching at L’Envers du Décor in Saint-Émilion, and the experience was absolutely remarkable. Located in the heart of the historic village, this restaurant offers a warm and elegant atmosphere, perfectly in keeping with the unique charm of Saint-Émilion. The cuisine is refined, authentic, and flawlessly executed, showcasing magnificent seasonal produce. I chose the calf's liver, which was simply exquisite, perfectly prepared, and bursting with flavor. My wife opted for the fish of the day, which was also delicious and beautifully presented. Everything was accompanied by an excellent glass of local red wine, followed by a glass of champagne, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The wine list is outstanding, as one would expect in one of the most prestigious villages in the Bordeaux wine region, with some truly excellent selections from Saint-Émilion and the surrounding area. The service is particularly warm, attentive, and highly professional. We also greatly appreciated the very warm welcome extended to the Quebecers, which made the experience even more enjoyable and memorable. A must-visit in Saint-Émilion for enjoying excellent cuisine in a charming setting. We will gladly return on our next visit to the region.

25/03/2026: A very good experience at this bistronomic restaurant. The service is excellent, it's popular with tourists, so we recommend making a reservation. The food is truly superb; the lamb was wonderful and tender, the desserts are homemade, and there were six of us, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. The decor is very pleasant. High-quality French cuisine.

07/03/2026: An entrance opens onto the street, leading under a beautifully decorated wooden roof adorned with string lights. The zucchini carpaccio with octopus is a delight! A superb atmosphere with soft background music.

02/03/2026: I would have given more than five stars if possible. A fantastic find in Saint-Émilion. Friendly and welcoming staff. Delicious food. Thank you for a lovely evening.

17/03/2026: We had a wonderful time on the terrace during a night out with friends. The view is lovely and the atmosphere relaxed. We received a warm welcome and attentive service throughout the meal. The dishes were delicious, beautifully presented, and served at a good pace. The place is clean and pleasant, perfect for enjoying a leisurely meal.

06/04/2026: We stopped for lunch and found a seat outside, sampled a selection of cheeses, and then had roast ham and grilled beef. To finish, we had an almond cake. Everything was delicious. Of course, we also really enjoyed the wine. Service was friendly and fast.

24/03/2026: St Emilion 25th October Le Medieval Restaurant We both travelled by train from Bordeaux to St Emilion for a day trip. The town is approximately 20-30 minutes from the station by foot up a gentle gradient, passing vineyards enroute. We wandered around the town, which is beautiful, had a glass of Bordeaux opposite the medieval Church before wandering back down with the intention of grabbing some lunch before heading towards the train station. We sat outside initially as - even for the end of October - the sun was shining and it was a beautiful day but moved inside when a threatening rainstorm delivered on its promise. The food was great as was the service and – as always – the wine was excellent and reasonably priced, given that it is undoubtedly a tourist destination. Probably mobbed in holiday season but this was still had a number of locals dining out.

28/03/2026: A lovely place, very pleasant service, and delicious food! The menus are very comprehensive; a great place to share a meal if you're passing through.

28/03/2026: A nice restaurant with a cave-like dining room in the heart of Saint-Émilion.
