Whatever the case, these restaurants are truly in tune with the spirit of Les Tables de Nantes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are a reflection of our jury\u2019s diversity and selection process. Although these establishments are very different, they all keep us anchored to our fundamentals: the quality of ingredients and their transformation through a chef\u2019s talent, a connection to our region and its soil \u2013 especially in the case of wines \u2013 while nevertheless remaining open to other cuisines, and the \u201csoul\u201d of restaurant-owners, who did not choose this difficult profession by accident, but in order to provide their guests with the most pleasant dining experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But do not go looking for absolute perfection! Approach each restaurant as we did: curious and laid-back. This should in no way prevent you from paying attention to the quality of the cuisine, the service, and (sometimes) the setting, all of which work together towards creating a truly enjoyable moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">The Coups de pouce 2025\/26<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1363\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gwaien-BD-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12304\" style=\"width:426px;height:640px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gwaien-BD-scaled.jpeg 1363w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gwaien-BD-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gwaien-BD-681x1024.jpeg 681w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gwaien-BD-768x1154.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gwaien-BD-1022x1536.jpeg 1022w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1363px) 100vw, 1363px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Gwaien<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/en\/restaurants\/gwaien\/\">Discover Gwaien<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1363\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Mirza-BD-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12307\" style=\"width:426px;height:640px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Mirza-BD-scaled.jpeg 1363w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Mirza-BD-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Mirza-BD-681x1024.jpeg 681w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Mirza-BD-768x1154.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Mirza-BD-1022x1536.jpeg 1022w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1363px) 100vw, 1363px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Le Mirza<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/en\/restaurants\/le-mirza\/\">Discover Le Mirza<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1363\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Ptite-pomme-BD-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12310\" style=\"width:426px;height:640px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Ptite-pomme-BD-scaled.jpeg 1363w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Ptite-pomme-BD-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Ptite-pomme-BD-681x1024.jpeg 681w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Ptite-pomme-BD-768x1154.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Ptite-pomme-BD-1022x1536.jpeg 1022w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1363px) 100vw, 1363px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>P\u2019tite Pomme<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lestablesdenantes.fr\/en\/restaurants\/ptite-pomme\/\">Discover P&#8217;tite Pomme<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Like every year (or almost, depending on the seasons), you will find our Coups de pouce (\u201chelping hand\u201d) section.
