“Les Tables de Nantes” guide selects establishments offering fresh, inventive cuisine that evolves with the seasons, harvests and catches\u2026 Cuisine that is open to the world, not set in its ways, constantly reinventing itself, yet also mastering the classics and taking into account the environmental challenges shaping the evolution of society. Above all, these are restaurants that do not lose sight of the fundamentals: flavour, a warm atmosphere, service, and their producers and winegrowers. This is a daily mission driven not only by the chefs, but also by their kitchen teams, front-of-house staff and all the teams involved, who together ensure collective success.<\/p>\n

Thus, the pursuit of enjoyment, value for money, the originality of the menu, the setting, the cuisine and a responsible approach \u2013 in short, the factors that make guests want to return and\/or recommend a restaurant \u2013 are essential to the selection process. Just as important are the establishments that enrich and leave their mark on Nantes as a destination.<\/p>\n
