Not the cheapest option in Bayeaux, but arguably the best. Nice setting, in a lovely building, well…read moreappointed. Creative food, great cocktails, good wine list. Worked well with gluten-free. This is a great spot for a nice dinner in Bayeux,

As the trip planner for our group, I wanted to mark the occasion with something special, so I…read morebooked our first ever Michelin star dining experience. After a full day touring the D-Day sites, we were ready for a memorable dinner. The location was easy to find and the exterior was inviting. Staff were attentive, fluent in English, and great at walking us through the menu. On that note, so was every other guest in the restaurant. Literally every table appeared to be American, including a fairly boisterous group seated right next to us. It was a jarring contrast to the quieter, more intimate French restaurants we'd visited earlier in the trip. The food was a mixed bag. The turbot fillet was outstanding, easily among the best fish I've ever had, and the mango and passion fruit rice pudding was a wonderful finish. The rest of the meal, though, didn't leave much of an impression for the price. Speaking of price, come prepared for a steep bill. And if the Michelin star draws you in hoping for an authentic French atmosphere, you may leave a little underwhelmed. On our walk home we passed a charming local spot and all quietly wished we'd eaten there instead.

We spent 7 days scouring France for the best food we could lay our hands on. This place is it. Pay…read moreno attention to the small number of reviews. It's because few yelper Americans venture to this quaint little corner that sits slightly off the beaten downtown Bayeux path. First thing you'll notice is that this place is classy. Very classy. Your hostess speaks great english, and is poised, polite and friendly. This is French dining, where the details matter. This is the food that rocked our world: ENTREES Biscuit croustillant de rouget et livèche (Red Mullet): The sauce almost killed me, I barely resisted licking the plate. Poireau bio pané à la Catalane (Leek): This could not have been a leek, it tasted like fluffy, crunchy happiness PLATS Pièce de veau Normand prise dans le filet (Veal Filet with Gnocchi): If I could get these gnocchi at home I might try to sell them on the black market. Dos d'églefin laqué miel-sésame (I think?): This one I'm not quite sure what it was... some kind of amazing seafood in a cloud-like foamy sauce with bacon. I've twisted my wife's arm for 8 years to eat seafood and she said it was the best thing she ate in France. DESSERTS Dôme fondant chocolat-pailletine (Dark Chocolate with Vanilla Ice Cream): Chocolate that's more chocolat-y than you've ever tasted, with Vanilla that's more vanilla-y than you knew could be possible. With gold on top. Tartelette à l'orange (Orange Tart with Orange Sorbet): This is VERY important. If you don't take anything else away from this review, you must read this. Navigate to Orbitz.com. Buy a ticket to Paris. Drive to Bayeux. Walk in to L'Angle Saint Laurent and tell them you want the orange tart. Eat it slowly. You have never tasted orange like that because oranges don't reach that level of citrusness on their own. Take the time between each bite to realize that the Nepal pepper they added to the orange flavor to jack it into the stratosphere is literally illegal in the United States. Why? Who knows. Maybe because peppers that taste citrus-y are witchcraft. But after we tasted this miracle we read the menu carefully and started pouring through Wikipedia, which sent us on a weeklong hunt to try to find some and and smuggle it through customs (sorry Trump, we couldn't find it anywhere). To top it all off, our final bill rang in at 74 euro (we don't drink though). Should you eat here? Yes you should.

Will not comment on all the dishes. In general it's very high quality technique. Flavor was spot…read moreon. Risotto - Very creamy, beets works wonder with a creamy dish. However, it still feels heavy. Smoked pork chop - Excellent flavor. Foie Gras - Perfect texture and taste, went perfectly with the toast.
