We were looking for a place to eat in Vannes and stumbled accross the Eden. What a great surprise! The food was excellent (I had the burger, one of the best I’ve ever had), the service was great, and the decor top notch. I highly recommend this place, and hope to come back if we’re ever in Vannes again.
Excellent French classic restaurant. Friendly efficient service. Revisited dishes, and great lava cake for dessert.
After a walk in the pouring rain we were warmly welcomed and shown to our table. The vibe is relaxed and comfortable. We both had the same meal the menu at 37€ accompanied by a bottle of Macon Azé. First up was snails bourguignon which was as you would expect. Then we had scallops which were really interesting because they had been seared and had a slightly smoked note. They were served in a root vegetable velouté a really delicious dish. Our wine was really spot on. The weakest link was the pudding which was a chocolate egg which looked great with its clementines and whipped cream but did not deliver in terms of taste. The service was excellent with a good pace and attention to detail. 110€ for two and worth every penny. I visited the toilet before leaving and it was very clean and well stocked.
Given the 4.5 and Certificate of Excellence rating in Trip Advisor, we were disappointed with our dinner. The setting is casual (no tablecloths on the approximately 12 small tables. Our appetizer, which we split, was very good (carpaccio of smoked salmon with herbed cream cheese and salad but not unique. Similarly, the main courses (curried shrimp with rice and local vegetables and an entrecôte with béarnaise sauce, salad, and French fries and dessert (chocolate mousse with whipped cream were perfectly good but nothing special. There was a nice selection of wine (we had a very pleasant Pinot Noir and the service was very good. Note: in Brittany, it seems to be the rule that there is only one sitting so the table is yours for the night.
Visited here one lunchtime after visiting Vannes for the day. Had the set menu and it was absolutely wonderful. Food and service (waitress great) excellent with a lovely terrace out back to eat outside. Didn’t make a reservation but lots of room. Highly recommended.
