L'Atlantide 1874 - Maison Guého

Overlooking the Loire, this 19C mansion, a landmark of Nantes, commands a sweeping view over the former shipyards. Chef Jean-Yves Guého deftly fashions a banquet of grandiose Gallic classics. Seafood and fish take the limelight, illustrated by a delicate marriage of Breton langoustine and sea urchin or Croisic John Dory confit in butter. The front-of-house team is enthusiastically led by the chef’s daughter, while the well-curated wine list is rich in Loire vintages. Gutsy food in a restful setting – consider us smitten!
