le rohein - Pléneuf-Val-André

We booked a table in the afternoon for the evening. The welcome was warm and friendly. The restaurant is small, perfect for a date night dinner. Decor was simple, maybe a little dated, but nice. The menu is small and elegant. Care is taken with presentation - everything is nicely arranged on the plates. The food is tasty and the portions were perfect. I liked that in both menus we had (the coquille st. jacques menu and the fish menu), there is a cheese plate as well as dessert. Service was perfect - attentive but not overbearing. I would definitely go back.

This is overpriced and not that good. Food too salty and it felt uncomfortable too rushed. Oysters only served with lemon juice not even bothered to make a dressing

The restaurant is small, there are only a few selections on the menu and the wine list is limited, but everything is done with great refinement, Elegant decor and table settings, subdued atmosphere, graceful service, everything complement the great seafood.

Our hotel did not offer an evening meal and the owner highly recommended Le Rohein. It's a small restaurant with crinkly cream tablecloths, crisply ironed white serviettes and about 10 tables The lady owner warmly welcomed us and we were so pleased we had previously booked. The mise bouche was a small glass of juicy melon with a tomato bayonette on top. A finger of pastry covered deliciously seasoned scallops in a fish sauce and their tasty fish soup was served with a bridge of pastry and a spring onion as decoration. Our mains were a tender, well seasoned faux fillet served with a delicious side dish of duchess potatoes with a creamy sauce and the sole was just wonderful with crispy vegetables of broccoli, red cabbage to dream about, bok choy and mangetout beans. French bread was required to mop the delicious sauces left on our dishes. Our desserts were simply magic-raspberries encased in a creamy pastry case, and a generous slice of a moorish black forest gateau. The dishes were nicely presented and all the other diners were equally happy with their choices. There is a good menu of fish, steak and lamb. The wines are fairly priced and it was the highlight of our french holiday this time.

We went on a Sunday evening, and we were the only diners there. Whilst obviously, it is a bit difficult to comment on the atmosphere, we could have no complaints on either the service or food.Their speciality is fish and sea food, and we "sort of" shared a 38€ menu and a 25€ menu. None of the multiple courses was too large, leaving us always looking forward to the next one. It seems to be privately owned and run, and one of the owners (who served us) was happy to engage in conversation when we wanted to, but also to stay in the background when we didn't.We were there at the end of March, before their main season, and the owner explained that they are often quiet on Sunday evenings as they do a lot of business at lunchtime that day.Just one small negative comment in that we thought the wine did seem a little expensive at 26€, but that certainly would not stop us revisiting Le Rohein when next in the area.

Let me start by saying that the service was excellent. The waitress was extremely helpful and quite pleasant. The ambiance is very white and extremely well lit little (way too bright for my taste, it really detracts from the potential intimacy that a small restaurant can possess... a bit too sterile). As for the food my meat was overcooked but still good and the potatoes delicious. My wife's fish was way too salty for her but my Grandmother loved it... so it probably depends on personal taste. It was pleasant but I wouldn't go back.

Very pleasant restaurant, good food, good quality, very pleasant owners, good service. No complains what so ever! We really enjoyed it. Their speciality is fish and sea food.

Let me start that saying that this was, shamefully, my first visit to the building that houses The Local and The Seahorse.
