Le petit Saint Thomas
La Garnache
03/12/2025: We were lucky enough to participate in a "Challenge Your Taste Buds" evening. The team was fantastic, from the kitchen to the dining room! Special mention to Maloé for organizing and hosting the event! We discovered new dishes and wines in a fun and friendly atmosphere (even for a wine novice like me 😃, a great experience). We'd love to do it again! 🤩
01/12/2025: We came for lunch on November 27th to celebrate my 70th birthday. I should mention right away that we were the only customers during lunchtime. My wife chose the set menu, and I opted for two dishes à la carte, mainly the beef. We accompanied our meal with two glasses of champagne, which was very good, as well as two glasses of wine. The starters were decent. As for the main courses, my wife enjoyed her hake with scallops; however, I was extremely disappointed when my beef was served. Instead of a piece of beef, I received a round sample of meat, 4 to 5 cm in diameter and 3 to 4 cm high. It's very small for a piece of beef, but I would have been satisfied if it had met my expectations: seared, rare as requested, tender, and flavorful. None of that! A piece of dark meat, unappealing to look at, undercooked, rubbery, and tasteless. I didn't ask for a replacement because if, from the outset, a renowned gourmet restaurant can't serve you a decent piece of meat, there's no point in expecting more, since it should simply be seared and cooked to the requested doneness! I did mention this to the young waiter, who was otherwise perfect throughout the meal. As for dessert, it was presented with a small birthday candle on a chilled plate (frozen??). The petit fours that accompanied the coffee and herbal tea were still cold inside (again, frozen??). This is all too much for a supposedly upscale restaurant! At the register, I again brought up my beef with the owner. She showed absolutely no understanding, saying, "This is the first time I've ever heard such a comment," and I understood perfectly well that it meant nothing to her and that the problem wasn't with the food or her. So, of course, no gesture of goodwill to make up for this lack of professionalism! At over €80 per person, this shouldn't exist. Needless to say, we won't be going back! Luckily, the next day in Noirmoutier, we were able to put this misadventure behind us by discovering a small restaurant that was packed with older locals who know how to appreciate good food.
