GRANNONIO JEROME

What a fantastic experience ! This is true modern cuisine: daring, yet harmonious, light yet with substance, focused on the (excellence of the) products, amazing combinations. A very stubborn chef, whose cooking you adore or hate. Great service, nice (affordable) wine list. We were delighted to hear that the restaurant obtained its second * 3 days after we passed.

We had an exquisite meal, the dishes were delicious and the service was excellent. It is one of the best gastronomic experience we had during our trip. It is located in a beautiful part of France on the north coast facing England.

We came for an anniversary dinner and the experience was excellent. All flavours, dishes and the slightest detail carefully taken into consideration.

We stayed in one of the glamourous huts and treated ourselves to the tasting menu for an evening meal to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. It didn't disappoint. Fun amuse bouche with our aperitifs and impeccable meal beautifully presented and tasting fabulous. Our waitress Clara was an absolute delight - very knowledgeable about each course and explained the accompanying wines (we elected to have the 8 course tasting menu with matching wines) with authority and enthusiasm considering her young age. Each course was a delight but I found the most innovative one was the 'Cuir de courgette Jaune' - amazing how our 2* chef transported the humble yellow courgette into something remarkable. A chicken breast melted in the mouth and the accompanying salted brioche was delicious. Alexandre Gauthier is a master craftsman taking his love of herbs and nature to another level with his wonderful food. The breakfast was a delight too with amazing smoked ham and cheeses, delicious home made rice pudding assorted berries and juices. Can't wait to go back but will have to save up as it wasn't cheap!

What an experience! This restaurant deserves 3 michellin stars! The food, the organisation, the atmosphere and the service were immaculate. They made you feel like home. Well done guys!

After finishing both challenges (trying all the Michelin 3 Stars and all the Parisian stars in 365 days), I’m now redoing a lot of them but also trying the “main” 2 stars. Indeed, during my tour, I often ask chefs for 2 Stars advices and La Grenouillère name came up several times amongst their recommendations. So here I was. Please note that this review is one for the restaurant. So what’s extraordinary here? Well a word of advice and a second one. First one, is that indeed, La Grenouillère is often mentioned and expectations can be high, but more importantly, distorted. Just like a movie, after hearing so many feedback, your experience may be polluted. So my first advice would be not to read to many reviews about it (which is a bit ironic coming from me, I admit…). Why? Because some reviews may induce you to go into an intellectual read, where I think one must first simply relax and experience it before thinking of it. It’s a challenge indeed, not only because as I said you may have hear of the chef and his cuisine before, but also the atmosphere, the design, the foodie crowd may incline you to it. Resist. And let yourself dive into the nature first. The freshness of the radish. The pear. The scallops. Just enjoy it, and then enjoy them, and then you may wonder how they are connected, what effect they produce on you and so on. But the last part is an option, or at least a consequence, not the goal. I guess the goal is just to bring you closer to his nature, by that I mean region, by breaking it down and playing with it. The crowd was foodies and couples. The wine list had some the right names on it. A very solid two stars

My fourth visit to La Grenouillère and everything was still... amazing.||The rooms were redecorated (my last visit was in June 2020) with taste. The staff is still outstanding. The dinner was out of this world. I enjoyed each and every minute of my stay in this magical place.

We stayed at La Grenouillere to celebrate a birthday, and had an amazing experience from the apple infusion in the salon at the start all the way to buying honey from the shop 24h later. The huts are beautiful and truly special, and the restaurant offers a great gastronomic experience. Nothing to change.
