Le Bulot - Saint Malo

Discover this restaurant in St Servan, it’s a real gem. Lovely staff who managed to fit us in on a very busy night. The dishes we tried were delicious, the wine, the views and general ambiance were all splendid. We will definitely be back as we were made so welcome by Fabienne and the staff. Merci bien!

We hadn't booked but were found a table although it was quite busy. It soon became apparent that they were short-staffed so service was rather slow but when the food came it was well worth the wait. And, as we speak French, the patronne still found time to share a joke with us.

We wish we'd have found this restaurant earlier (but we'll be back, don't worry). Make sure you book as it was packed even on off season. We made the most of the beautiful sunshine and 19C weather and sat outside. The food, service and wine was fantastic. Given the sunshine we were given free hats!! And the wine bottle design was amazing (we actually took two home with approval from the host). Thank you for a most lovely, lazy afternoon lunch.

It was gone 1300 hrs when we stepped in to a very busy restaurant and were given the last table; we took this as a good sign of the quality of the food and it was. The menu is limited but we thought that would mean all was freshly sourced it seemed to be. As we chose our drinks and were perusing the menu a table by the window became vacant and we were invited to move; as the view was fantastic we jumped at the chance. We chose the Tapas dishes for main and it was suggested we add Moules or Salmon to make more of a meal; we chose Salmon. All the Tapas dishes Salmon were really tasty wonderfully presented. The miniature black puddings Salmon were favourites for me. There was a good choice of desserts we chose a many layered crêpes (the Mrs) and a chocolate cake; both were excellent. The restaurant had a great atmosphere with everyone chatting regardless of language barriers (in our case) and I think this was encouraged/lead by the management team.

The staff suggested the wok dish for the non seafood eaters. Large portions and delicious. The seafood platter was so fresh and delicious. The house wine and the Irish coffee were perfect. Our hostess was very helpful for us non French speakers. Thank you for the great service. Our 93 year old father-in-law enjoyed the experience!!
