Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Saint-Emilion

11/10/2026: Julien and Catherine provided an experience so exquisite, we returned to St. Emilion for our final night in the Bordeaux area just to dine with Le Tertre a second time. Thank you for putting so much thought and care into each dish, each wine pairing, and every moment of the experience. I look forward to returning with my wife on a future trip. The menu rotates, but if you have a chance to try their Foie Gras, Jersey Beef, Veal, or Duck, you will not be disappointed. Take the time to ask Catherine what wine pairs best with each course. Thanks again Julien and Catherine!

10/10/2026: Absolutely amazing Restaurant! The food is incredibly delicious and plated thoughtfully and beautifully, but what really makes the difference is the amazing service by the owners themselves and the fantastic wealth of wine knowledge when pairing a dish with a wine! I will come here again and again, highly recommend you get a reservation as this place fills up every night.

03/09/2026: ★★★★★ A truly fantastic restaurant in Saint-Émilion! The service was exceptionally friendly and attentive, the food incredibly delicious, and the atmosphere simply pleasant and relaxed. We were also particularly impressed with the value for money – really attractive for Saint-Émilion. We felt completely at ease and will definitely be back. Highly recommended! 🇫🇷🍷

30/08/2026: Excellent restaurant for the price! With attentive service.

18/10/2026: A good gastronomic experience, the only downside was that we didn't like the taste of the desserts, although aesthetically they had a very good presentation

16/10/2026: This is the best we've tried in this region so far. The basic menu for €49 is superb. The veal is so tender you can barely chew it, and the rum baba has a pine-like aroma; we even swallowed the spoonful. And overall, the combination of flavors, the texture, and the presentation are absolutely delightful. Even the compliments we get for the dishes are truly remarkable!

20/10/2026: It’s so rare to find a good place with a good food Sunday afternoon in France but here the wonderful one 👌💯 Little hidden corner with beautiful terrace. Great salades, delicious “confit de canard” really good service🙌👌 💯💯 recommend St Emilion

19/10/2026: Everything was great. We ordered the €19.50 set menus, which included a starter (a salad; the cheese salad was very good), a main course, and dessert. Drinks were extra. Everything was delicious, and we were quite full with the portions. I would recommend, if there's more than one of you, ordering the duck and cheese menus and sharing them, as the cheese menu was quite heavy for one person. There's a €4 supplement for ordering duck, and the wine isn't really worth the price.

05/10/2026: From the moment we walked in, the welcome was the most unpleasant we've ever experienced. We decided to eat there based on the reviews. We were turned away as if we were rotten fish, practically yelled at for "daring" to ask for a table for two. (Several empty tables) This kind of restaurant shouldn't be so enthusiastic about its customers.

28/09/2026: Absolutely delicious food and a restaurant that is definitely worth booking in advance. Be sure to make a reservation, as it is always difficult to get a table. Every dish prepared by the chef was delicious, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality. I especially loved the seafood dishes. The fish was cooked to perfection—tender and moist, with just the right texture—allowing you to really appreciate the delicate, naturally sweet flavor of the sea. And one more thing: their red wine is excellent! Definitely give it a try when you visit. A wonderful dining experience with beautifully prepared food, great value, and genuinely delicious flavors. Highly recommended!

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.

31/08/2026: Incredible dining experience for lunch, with amazing service, food, ambiance and wine list. We did the three course lunch menu, which also was accompanied by a set of starters from the chef and sweets to close out this magical afternoon. The staff was on point, attentive and very well organized throughout our dining experience. Highly recommended!

22/05/2026: The standout meal of a Bordeaux trip that included several more decorated kitchens. Chef Thibaut Gamba's style is delicate and seasonal — the white asparagus with morels and nasturtium read like a thesis on what Gironde produce can do in May, and the lamb course (rare, layered, with a sabayon and broad beans) was the kind of plate where each element earned its place. The amuse-bouche and pre-dessert were equally considered — no filler, no flourish for its own sake. Service was precise without theatre, attentive without hovering. The room — wisteria pergola outside, the plush dining room inside the 1848 building — is the kind of setting other Saint-Émilion restaurants are trying to imitate. We came with our own bottles and the team accommodated graciously, glassware and pacing handled as if it were their own list. One star feels underrated - this is where you want to eat.

13/09/2026: Their chocolate macarons, while still respecting the original recipe, are simply delicious. Their shop is a real treat for the eyes and the taste buds, with a wide variety of sweets to choose from. The staff are welcoming and friendly; we'll definitely be back...

21/08/2026: The ONLY place to find authentic St Emilion macarons made according to pure tradition

24/10/2026: The service was rather slow, the beef was good but fatty and not very tender, and the fries were frozen. On the other hand, the panoramic view was exceptional, the ham incredible, and the gourmet coffee lived up to expectations. The value for money was not what we expected!

23/10/2026: The winery boasts a terrace offering stunning views of the vineyards; however, the value for money was insufficient. Why the high cost of wine glasses, considering the service is provided directly at the winery, coupled with a menu geared towards tourists? Due to the high volume of visitors and the nature of the service, I do not recommend a future visit.

13/10/2026: Frankly unpleasant, an experience I would not repeat! The head waitress was arrogant and rude.

03/10/2026: Gourmet dishes: if you're hungry, a baguette is better.

05/09/2026: Had a really great meal here when on holiday with my family, they have a beautiful courtyard out the back. Not a cheap restaurant but the food was lovely and lots of choice to suit everyone. Would recommend booking as it seems to get very busy (understandably!)

30/08/2026: The restaurant is superbly located and the food is brilliant too and portions are huge. Both the soup and lamb were delicious. The outdoor setup is also fantastic. Only regret I have is the bottle of wine suggested did not match my taste and I had to leave the half empty.

29/09/2026: A gem in Saint-Émilion: top-notch cuisine, a shaded terrace, and outstanding service! An excellent address not to be missed! The interior dining room offers a very warm, cozy, and convivial atmosphere. And for outdoor dining, the restaurant boasts a charming little shaded terrace in a closed courtyard, ideal for enjoying a particularly pleasant, peaceful, and relaxing moment. Another truly appreciable plus: service is provided continuously from 12 pm to 6:30 pm. This is perfect for taking your time and savoring your meal without having to rush or worry about not being served after 2 pm! As for the food, the quality is consistently high from appetizer to dessert: flavorful, generous, and beautifully presented dishes. A huge thank you also goes to the warm welcome and service, which make all the difference. The waiter, full of humor, and the waitress (who is also the owner), particularly cheerful, are both extremely welcoming. They also gave excellent advice on wine selection. A wonderful experience from start to finish; we will definitely return. You can go without hesitation!

29/09/2026: We enjoyed a pleasant meal on the terrace during our visit to Saint-Émilion. The service was excellent.

25/10/2026: I highly recommend this unique and typical Saint-Émilion spot, located in a wine cellar. The welcome was very friendly, and the food was delicious, made with fresh ingredients. Excellent wine recommendations... An address to remember!

30/09/2026: Good afternoon, My mother and I went to this restaurant for lunch because it looked nice from the outside. But to our surprise, we had an unpleasant experience. The first thing I asked the waiter was for a table for two, and then I asked where the restroom was. Since I don't speak French, I tried my best to express myself in English. The waiter who served us was dismissive and raised his voice, telling us there were no restrooms in the restaurant and rudely ushering us outside, telling us to go to the tourist office. Although it could have been a misunderstanding due to the language barrier, I doubt there really were no restrooms in the restaurant. I do not recommend this place because the customer service was appalling. The waiter showed a great deal of contempt for the customers. I have attached a photo of the facade so you know which restaurant I'm referring to.
