Abricotier - Saint-Macaire

For having attended her in the past, we were waiting for a refined cuisine in a peaceful setting. The frame remains but the wait is endless, the incompetent patronage, the wine without interest, the fish without flavor. Only the note is salty, very salty. We won't go back.

We found this restaurant in a small town in the south of the france on our way back to España. it has an indoor terrace with a beautiful garden and offers à la carte dishes and different menus. we chose one in which, for 23 €, you could choose 2 entries and 2 seconds. We ate a salad of potatoes and seafood and, second, a bar and a pork that was exquisite. In dessert, we had cafloutis with plums and a plate of cheese. they have a child menu at the same level as the rest of the card. two adults and one child we ate for 64€ only flat the servers are a little steep, in any case it is a highly recommended restaurant.

Everything is to advise in this restaurant...the immediate and courteous welcome, the setting, rooms decorated with a chic and refined taste or charming flowered patio, lunch or dinner under the cover of ripe trees and the foot of the old shelter that gave its name to the restaurant, and of course the food. the chef alain zanette is part of the French association of master restorers and knows perfectly dose perfumes and spices without extravagance, the freshness of the products "market return" is exemplary and the prices very studied for the dishes offered. The wine map is interesting (we are in a gironde ! ) you are skillfully advised without pushing to consumption....And Madame zanette watches everything with a smiling firmness....Having the chance to live a few kilometers, it is for me the best restaurant in the area.

A year later, we will be reiterating our stop in the shelter on the holiday road. What a happiness that to have lunch in this beautiful garden without eyes! gourmet meals always top and reception and impeccable and warm service. We've been regaled again, and there's a lot to bet that we'll be back in a passage around the corner. To do absolutely, especially in beautiful days!

Small entrance of the restaurant that hides an exceptional service, a divine cuisine, a super friendly staff and then the setting!!!We have lunched out in a fabulous setting as in a cocoon
