L'Atelier - Agen

This was the next restaurant of our accommodation and had good ratings on ta. we reserved a table only for the case, but there was no need, as there was enough space in the interior, while most terrace tables were taken. we started with a few beers and ransacked the menu. my wife skipped the starter and I went for the carpaccio of dorade. our main courses were lamb jam and filet of the sea bass. the three teller of the food were excellent and the main courses were hot pipping. we ordered wine on the glass and enjoyed the quiet interieur of this charming restaurant. there is, however, “but”. first, the waiting period for the lonely first course was unstoppable long as it was the time to delete the plate and serve the main courses. second, the waiter seemed to be a close friend of the diner at an outside table and spent all his time chatting with them instead of checking on other tables. at the end of the evening we even had to disturb his converstaion with them to demand the bill. Nevertheless we had a very pleasant evening and, to repeat, eating was exceptional.

We travelled canal garonne and stopped on Monday in the beautiful harbour of agen for an overnight stay. many restaurants near Mondays, so we recommend the harbor master for one. he has recommended l’atelier enthusiastically. we really had no idea how happy. we were in this extraordinary restaurant to eat. we came a little early before they opened, but they served us a very nice bottle of rose while we waited on the terrace. the menu and the fresh choice of the jour were very nice. the ladies chose the white fish special raved over how perfect the fish was prepared and the presentation. the young shared a beef tenderloin for two that absolutely perfect with taste over comparison. the beard sauce was the best I ever tasted. the cook visited our table to make sure we were satisfied. that is an extraordinary restaurant. do not miss the food in l’atelier when they are in agen.

Moment plus qu'agréable. On est venu par hasard et ce dernier fait bien les choses. Cadre très agréable, service souriant et avec bonne humeur et cuisine excellente. A très vite

Que de dire de l'atelier tout est parfait le cadre le patron et les plats justes divins de l'apéritif au dessert mon seul regret ne pas habiter Agen pour y retourner plus souvent ! si vous habiter ou passer par Agen allez y les yeux fermés

Au programme, menu découverte tout poisson, tartine à la truite, lieu noir et sa pomme safranée, choux tout chocolat, et pour finir, un bon digeo ! Je commence par le bémol. Nous nos attendions à une cuisine un peu plus travaillée... Mais on peut aussi se dire que la meilleure cuisine se conjugue souvent avec simplicité. Au final, un bon moment avec des plats frais et de qualité, et aussi un accueil très chaleureux, décontracté, bref, très agréable.Une très bonne adresse qui ne paye pas de mine mais qui je suis sûr vous procurera de l'enthousiasme.Les deux cerises sur le gâteau, le choux tout chocolat excellentissime, et un bon rhum conseillé avec soin par Monsieur en guise de digestif, un Admiral Rodney que je ne connaissais pas du tout et que je conseille également.Bon appétit...
