La Marine - Menu

Don't eat before you go, you will have pleanty to eat and discover. the signature dish Erika clam is a must and the frechness of the products is incredible big size portions for gastronomique restaurant but you will enjoy every bite of it.

We had a fabulous dinner at this tiny restaurant on the coast of France. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Each dish was an adventure in creativity, beauty and taste ... the numerous amuse bouche set the stage and the meal continued a great gastronomic adventure. The course of the evening was a wonderful desert of pine ice cream on a seaweed biscuit with sprinkles of chocolate and other sweets. Lovely!Go ... You will not be disappointed!

It is almost difficult to describe this experience with words. We found La Marine through an episode of Chef's Table and it was to be the peak of our family vacation in France. Even so, it exceeded our expectations. A warm welcome, impeccable service and dish after dish which delighted both the eye and our tastebuds! We weren't sure wether to choose the large menu but we're glad we did in the end. Amazing! The experience was greatly enhanced by the fact that we stayed at the family's hotel next door and could continue with a fantastic breakfast the morning after. This was truly a once in a lifetime experience I would recommend to anyone!

Nous avons amené notre fils de 15 ans et notre fille de 12 ans pour un dîner que personne dans la famille n'oubliera depuis longtemps ! Le menu était sublime et les amuse-bouche étaient exquis. Tous les détails, des magnifiques poteries en céramique choisies pour mettre en valeur les plats jusqu'aux accords mets-vins, ont été appréciés. Mais ce sont les gens qui ont fait toute la différence et un grand merci à Mme Couillon qui, avec son équipe, a rendu notre soirée et notre nuit dans cet hôtel nouvellement ouvert absolument merveilleuses. Nous avons séjourné dans la chambre familiale. C'était propre, confortable, moderne et maritime ! Le petit-déjeuner était une symphonie de plats, de saveur...

This was hands down the best meal in my life. After taking a long drive all the way from Bordeaux, we arrived at the restaurant thirsty and hungry. We ordered the no 1 menu, which consisted of two starters, two mains and two desserts. Every dish, including the mouth amusers, was perfectly cooked and blew my mind. The Erika oyster was the largest and freshest I have ever seen, and it tasted so delicious with the squid ink marinate, layer of sugar and the powdered bacon. This review would be too long if I were to describe all the dishes, but some other highlights were the barbecued asparagus, the tender duck, and the smoked milk ice cream. For anyone wishing to experience mind blowing seafood...

Menu changes twice daily, depending on the catch and seasonal vegetables available from the chef's garden nearby. Very fresh products, cooked to perfection. A choice between a menu of 6 or 9 dishes. Because one is plied with numerous amuse-bouche even before the "real thing" starts, the 6 menu is just perfect. But the 9 dish menu is also terribly tempting (lobster!). Staff is charming and very attentive. They were very accommodating to one in our party who was pregnant and couldn't eat raw fish. They whipped up langoustines for her, in place of the oyster for example. The only thing amiss was that the chef didn't come out of the kitchen to go round the tables, when it is a very small restaur...

Having watched Alexandre Couillon's episode on Netflix's Chef's Table France, we knew that we had to make the Noirmoutier detour for our roadtrip vacation in France - and it sure did not disappoint! We booked our table 2 months in advance, though it appeared to be quite full already.The restaurant is small, with five tables set up in a cosy setting. We ordered the 6-course menu, partially for the famous "Erika" oyster, and so began the amazing lunch experience that was started with an additional 6 welcome dishes before the first starter dish came. We sat through three hours of a delightful food journey, ranging from perfectly barbecued asparagus, to the famous shapeless Erika oyster, and to...

Nous passons une soirée incroyable à la Marine, la meilleure expérience culinaire que j'ai jamais vécue. Nous avons opté pour le menu complet de 9 plats et ne l'avons pas regretté : c'était un feu d'artifice de cuisine à son meilleur. Tout a commencé avec 6 amuse-bouche incroyables qui indiquaient ce que cet équipage pouvait faire, et chacun des neuf plats était véritablement une œuvre d'art en termes de présentation, de texture et de goût. L'excellent sommelier avait concocté le forfait vins parfait que je recommande également, et le service était bien sûr impeccable. Je n'ai rien de négatif à dire, cette expérience restera longtemps dans nos mémoires, mais quelques conseils pour les futurs...

We had been meaning to visit La Marine for some time and finally got around to it and what a pleasure it was.The outside is quite unprepossessing but one immediately gets taken up a level in the reception. We had decided as we had eventually booked and arrived there we would have the 9 course menu with matched wine.My wife and I had a debate about a glass of champagne as an apéro. We decided against it as we have found some restaurants can overdo the quantity of wine served ( yes I know you don't have to drink it all!). I think in retrospect it was a mistake as it would have been perfect with the exquisite canapés, there was one truffles like one with mackerel and coffee that was perfect.I w...
