Le Flambadou - Le Mans

My daughter and I found ourselves in the Plantagenet Cite of Le Mans at 1pm on a Sunday and needed a restaurant. Many were closed but we found this charming and quaint place, where in very short order we were served a parmentier of duck and a leg of rabbit respectively. Both were extremely tasty and wholesome. The wine (Cahors) was good and the proprietor genial. A nice surprise all round.

Found this place after wandering around vieux Mans and being sourly treated at first two choices(both higher rated)Very welcoming, attentive service, great food beautifully presented.So good we went back the next night.Ate inside and had table by open window on 1st floor- recommended

I had been here about 3 years ago for the Le Mans classic with a bunch of blokes. We ate outside for lunch and had such a good time I made a special detour to take my wife and friends. The outside was not open but the inside is charming. The food was excellent with dishes that were a little different. We were recommended a good wine and one of our party had a chocolate dessert which he said was absolutely to die for. Very rich though. I would love to go in the evening it is a lovely restaurant.

Booked here because we loved the terrace - great spot for al fresco ambience. The food was competently prepared, but that's it, and the menu seemed better suited to winter than summer. Service was prompt and efficient.

We found this little gem by chance whilst walking around the old city, the setting is great, this is a small restaurant with southern food, a small menu at various prices for set choices, this is fresh well cooked excellent food, you can eat cheaper elsewhere but in Le Mans you really get what you pay for, this is excellent food at a reasonable price for the quality, I had crab starter and mediterranean prawn main, excellent cheeses and deserts included. service was fast and very friendly, I can definitely recommend this little restaurant
