Really lovely place, nice people and lovely food. Two friends who are so welcoming. Great wine. Made me feel really welcome as they’d opened. Good wine suggestions and very reasonable. Thanks Alex and Maxime. From London to Nante.

Lovely wine bar & restaurant. Serves small plates in the evening with a lovely selection of wine. Staff were super helpful and spoke good English (which helped as my French is somewhat lacking). All for a very reasonable price! Venue had a lovely atmosphere and is frequented by a lot of locals Overall strongly reccomend to anyone visiting Nantes!

So friendly and great wine! I did not really like the tapas. We had three different dishes but we went for the wine so I can not fault.

Très bon choix de resto. Nous reviendrons. Très bien situé (cité des congrès, quai Erdre, proche château...). Cuisine délicieuse. Service très sympa. Petits bémols : les plats pourraient être servis plus chauds... et le brouhaha des conversations un peu gênant... Bonne suite. A bientôt.
