Restaurant Le Jusant

We chose this location because of its excellent location, with a superbe view of the port. The sevice was good, the food quality by local standards was below average and the prices 3 times what they should be for what you get

Just across the Harbour this restaunrant is a locton you want to be if weather Permits on the terrace. Without Reservation we took one of the last tables Close to the kitchen and restrooms. But that was not really a Problem as the service was very attentive and helpful. Unfortunately the dinner courses did not match our expectation: soupe the poisson was OK the cuisse grenouille not as iteresting and tasty as we enjoyed them at some other places the bavette too rare, then too welldone large Portion but not really delicious the aile de raie (stingray) was good, large protion unfortunately no capers in the kitchen really disappointing: any of the main courses were served with the same condiments mushrooms (these large oyster items), potatoes, some other vegetables (all in all not very appealing) Nevertheless the bottle of Rose (Tavel) helped us to enjoy the dinner.

Our server was a delight, as was her helper, and that almost earned a fourth star. But the local competition is tough. In Sarlat or Mirepoix, this place would easily earn four stars. The fish soup was classic, and not especially well presented. My starter was painterly on the plate, and the flavors were good. Tiny little salads with somewhat tired lettuce. An outstanding Parmentier, nicely crusted local potatoes with duck in a velvety brown gravy. And a lovely light caramel custard.

Excellent service and lunch menu with a superb view. We had not visited this particular restaurant before but were more than pleasantly surprised. We chose the cheapest menu and the quality was outstanding for the price. The service could not be faulted, neither could the view. Will visit again when possible.

Bien qu'arrivés à 13:45, nous avons été très bien accueilli par la patronne. Belle présentation des langoustines dans un panier en osier, des plats très copieux et de qualité. Carte de vins très courte mais très bon choix de travailler avec les vignobles Mourat. Ce devrait être mentionné sur la carte car tous les fiefs vendéens ne sont pas de cette qualité. En plus, à moins de 23 € la bouteille, il ne faut pas s'en priver. Enfin, heureusement qu'on s'était fait envoyer paître de la Cormaraune car nous n'aurions pas connu le Jusant.
