Double recommendation (tripadvisor and the owner of our B&B) led us to spent our last evening in Bretagne in restaurant Al Dente. The expectations were very high, and were met from the start. The waiters were very friendly, and the apetisers (focacia, tomato, croquette of sardines, mozzarella were of a very promising level. In the evening, you can only take the menu (a 27 EUR) which consist of a choice between 2 starters, 2 main dishes and 4 desserts. We took one of each starter and main dish, and all 4 dishes were outstanding. Many congrats to the chef and his team in the kitchen. The desserts just followed the quality of the dishes and were very good. Why then not a quotation of 5/5, but only 4/4 ? Well the tempo of the meals was very slow. We started at 19:30 and 3 courses later, we finished after 22:00. Just 3 courses in 2,5 hours is much to slow. And knowing the restaurant is âItalianâ we expected a bit more âenergyâ.

Since it changed ownership it is trying to be more of a restaurant rather than a pizzeria. It has smartened up the furniture and décor which used to be very dated. The menu has changed and now includes many more items. The steaks are great. best we have had in France!Pizzas are still good but slightly more expensive. It is however always cold in the restaurant. In summer the air conditioning is too cool and in Autumn Winter hands and feet become really cold which has twice now taken the edge of our meal.Desserts are 'rustique', quite expensive and disappointing. The profiteroles are `huge and you get three of them but filled with 'ice crystal laden' ice cream (coffee flavoured) which is not mentioned on the menu. Tiramisu is homemade but basic.On the whole the surface level décor improvements don't improve the menu or dining experience. Service is reasonable and the staff are friendly but the two sisters who ran the place previously had service covered quite spectacularly and it could not be compared to it's current service level.Not as many customers now as this time last year. This demonstrates that people are voting with their feet about the changes. I would go back again but for pizza only.

Just up one of the cobbled arcade streets, tables set outside. Menu wasn't vast, but enough for choices. Portion sizes were quite small, although my pizza was delicious my husband felt that his pasta dish was a child sized portion. Waiter was very attentive. Bottled drinks only but good coffee and cold beer. We loved the ambience and the view as the place was located in an old medieval building with chairs and tables inside or out in the passage with sun umbrellas for shade. We would perhaps describe this place as a snack bar rather than a restaurant, whatever, we had a nice, albeit small lunch in the heart of the district for a reasonable cost. We were given a loyalty card and we would go back there given its proximity to the centre, shops and attractions.

When out of my way to have a pizza , it should be against culinary law to serve such a dreadful so call pizza , how can it be legal !What makes a good pizza is simply main ingredients , tomatoes ,100% mozzarella and home made fresh base ! The base was a disaster , uncooked un-risen , how hard is it to put flour water and a touch of olive oil , salt and yeast , mix and let it prove and then make a base . Then you have a base with life , not what I got a dead flat uncooked disc .Sorry but if you are the owner and reading this , go on a course or just change your sign to crepes and delete PIZZERIA .Hi Marcello,I'm the owner, and accept my appologies about your pizza.If you known what you want, why didn't ask it to me.Of course it's very simplistic to make a good pizza.Come with me in the kitchen for the next time !Franck
