La Ferme Saint Simeon Restaurant - Relais et Chateaux

In a .romantic package. we had a 7 gang menu as diner during our stay. We asked for accompagnant wines and the sommelier suggested fine and affordable wines with the different plates. The food was excellent and the service, supervised by Mathieu, was impeccable!

I had Sunday lunch and was surprised at what a good value it was considering the elegance of the restaurant and the quality of the food. The turbot was excellent, probably the best I had on my entire trip. Everything was so good I seriously...considered having a second meal while I was there.

Passons sur le cadre chaleureux et feutré à l'image de l'établissement et sur la vue imprenable sur l'estuaire.Nous y avons dîné à trois reprises, aucune déception ! Chaque mise en bouche, entrée, viande ou poisson, dessert et autre mignardise nous a bluffé. À tester absolument le homard fumé à la sauge avec ses pinces en tempura. On s'étonnera que le restaurant ne soit pas étoilé! Le personnel est très agréable et compétent.

Granted, the food was delicious. However, at a restaurant of this price level, the service has to be excellent. And that is just not the case. Especially the first waiter who "welcomed" us (or rather suggested we should go to the cheaper brasserie), was quite unfriendly and did not change his attitude throughout our visit. The second waiter was much more professional and nicer, but could not make up for the attitude of his colleague.

Je suis de l'avis des avis avisés qui précèdent le mien. Toutes les branches de l'étoile sont là : le cadre bien cadré, le site bien situé, la vue à voir, les serveurs serviables ... et la cuisine digne d'un étoilé parisien. Bon, peut-être pas un 3 macarons, mais un premier serait justement mérité. Alors oui c'est cher, mais le rapport qualité-prix est bien meilleur que tous les moules-frites de bord de mer vendus 25€ le plat.Une excellente adresse.
