L'edito - Châlons-en-Champagne

There are plenty of tables outside the restaurant but we chose to eat inside as there was the threat of rain. The staff were very good and spoke good English. The menu has a lot of variety including pizza, mussels and burgers as well as a variety of other meat and fish dishes. I had the Gourmand burger. It was probably the best burger I’ve ever had. I certainly have never previously had one topped with foie gras and containing smoked duck rather than bacon before. It was cooked perfectly and the portions were very big. My wife’s had a whole duck breast which again was perfectly cooked and huge. Unfortunately a doggy bag is not an option when you’re travelling the next day. This was a real find and we will look out for L’Edito in other towns.

Restaurant in love, very pleasant, warm and warm with a large selection of cocktails. I recommend.

Overall a poor experience. Drinks took forever to arrive, whilst we weren’t in a hurry it would have been good to have the aperitif before the food arrived. The snails were average, pretty tasteless though. The charcuterie board was ok but served with toast and no nice pickles or anything with it. The moules were less than average and my steak was stone cold, so I sent it back and because the new one was cooked quickly and not rested, it was tough. Service was poor and inattentive. I guess it’s in the middle of the square so our expectations were not particularly high but it failed to meet even low expectations. Disappointing and would not return.

Stopped here for dinner, chosen at random as we liked the look of the menu. The staff were absolutely lovely, our French is fairly basic once they realised this they kindly spoke to us in English, they were very kind and really looked after us without making us feel fussed over. The food was very good, can recommend the profiteroles!!!

Our hotel recommended L’Edito as a good restaurant choice close to a Sunday evening when most places were closed. we had a delicious dinner escargots for me fois gras for my man with escapes and coquilles st. jacques. the champagne was good and the pommerol divine. many local eat. with the extensive wine list and menu there is something for everyone. nice friendly service and an attractive interieur. would definitely recommend.
