Les meilleurs restaurants en Saint-Meloir-Des-Ondes

18/03/2026: A superb experience, both in the dining room and on the plate. Congratulations to the team, especially Julien, for his attentiveness throughout lunch. Thanks also to the sommelier for his recommendations and for sharing this special moment with us.

15/03/2026: After staying at Le Rimains Cottage and enjoying an excellent meal and superb service at the bistro, we drove to the Chateau with great anticipation for dinner. The location is spectacular, and the Chateau is very photogenic with a beautiful garden surrounding it. We arrived at 7:15 pm, having reserved for 7:30 pm – we were told not to be late. The welcome, we must say, was quite underwhelming. Although we were greeted and shown to a small lounge, we then sat on the sofa for 30 minutes, seemingly left unattended, while the staff served two tables with aperitifs, etc. Everyone greeted us, but we weren't offered drinks or a menu. Just when we were ready to leave, a young woman finally attended to us. So, the start wasn't the best. However, things improved considerably from there – we had a very witty and eloquent young waitress who made the meal a real pleasure – both visually and gastronomically. The sommelier did an excellent job; we didn't want a wine tasting menu, but rather a good bottle of white wine that would perfectly complement the meal. Online, there was a choice between a small and a large menu, but on the evening of the meal, only the large menu was offered for everyone. I must say that the price was more than justified; in fact, it's practically impossible to find a three-Michelin-starred restaurant at this price elsewhere. We found the menu exceptional, artful, impressive, and incredibly exciting in terms of the spices and the combinations of the individual dishes. Let's call it a culinary firework display. The wait between the many courses wasn't long either—everything moved along quickly, and we were constantly surprised because the menu and its descriptions gave no indication of what the actual dish would be. The digestif was then served to us again in the small dining room, and the farewell was very pleasant and humorous; I think they could tell that the beginning hadn't gone quite as planned.
