8/10The hot Grand Marnier was superb. Parking in the grounds or on the street was easy. The dining room is pleasantly old fashioned with silver service. My issue was failure by the kitchen to adhere to my medical dietary requirements despite advising on booking and clear instructions sent through the waiting staff. It took several returns of the main course to the kitchen before almost all banned vegetables were removed; I ultimately accepted one where the slice of potato (banned medically) under the lamb was still on the plate but removable. It spoiled an otherwise good experience.

Dear Chris, Thank you very much for your comments and feedback. We're sorry that this lack of communication disrupted your meal, which incidentally was still of a high standard. Best regards.

4.5/10We had been before and enjoyed the experience The food and service were good This time was very disappointing The food was not the same quality but the service was poor One of the group was still eating and the servers started clearing the table There were other people in the restaurant who had just started their meal so it was not as if we were the last and were keeping them back

Dear Patricia, Thank you for your feedback on our second experience, which apparently was not up to the standard of the first. We are very sorry. However, we hope to have the pleasure of fully satisfying you on your next visit. The restraurant team

8.5/10Light and airy restaurant with beautiful view and sunset. But a very formal atmosphere. Delicious veggie main course and grand marnier soufflé but dissapointing homard for the very high price (€60). Very professional staff.
Le 36 • Owner
Dear Dean, It's currently late August and September that the sunsets over the Loire are the most beautiful to admire at dinner time. We are delighted that you were able to enjoy these magical moments. The vegetarian offer and the soufflé dessert were unanimously appreciated, but it's a shame about the lobster - was it a cooking problem? We thank you warmly for your feedback and hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again in the future (reopening after our renovation work in summer 2026).

6.5/10Smart dining room with views directly over the river Loire. Pleasant and helpful staff, but quality of the dishes disappointed. In the past 9 days travelling around Touraine we have enjoyed excellent meals, but Le 36 is unfortunately the only one we look back on as less than top-notch (despite being quite pricy)
Le 36 • Owner
Dear Sir, Thank you for taking the time to send us your feedback. We are sorry that the quality of our cuisine did not fully meet your expectations. The chef has just brought out a new menu, and we would be delighted to submit it to your judgement. Hoping to welcome you soon, best regards

10/10First-rate experiences all round. The ambience of the dining room very elegant in an understated way. The service was similar with experienced servers willing to share their knowledge upon asking. The food was phenomenal. The halibut was probably the finest I have ever eaten and the boeuf Rossini was another stand out. The cheese trolley was also formidable. We will surely return after the major makeover of the hotel is completed. One for your address book.
Le 36 • Owner
Dear Mr. Murphy, We are delighted to have had the pleasure of welcoming you to our table and thank you for sharing the satisfaction of your experience. We are still open until October 2024, before a major closure for renovations. If you have the opportunity to stop by before then, we'll be delighted to welcome you, otherwise you'll have to wait until May 2026 for the reopening. Gourmet greetings !

5.5/10Restaurant gave really furious performance. They want to get impression of being top gastronomy restaurant but reality is very different. Staff where young students in article and they will have to take more practice. Ok, could be ... ... but their teachers don't known something more probably , e.g. serving of wine was made with more mistakes. Meal - only average. They can be really glad to being in tourist attractive location with more guest. That is not enough to rely on nice view of Loire Rives only ...
Le 36 • Owner
Dear Sir, Thank you for your comment which caught our attention. As you know, the restaurant business is a demanding profession that attracts fewer and fewer applicants. It's true that young people need and must be trained, but unfortunately this can't be done in just a few days. It's only by practicing the trade that you can acquire the necessary mastery. We're sorry that this has led to an average experience, which apparently didn't fully satisfy you. We thank you for your patience and magnanimity. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again under optimal conditions, so that you can forget this mixed memory. Yours Sincerely.

4.5/10Save your money and eat at one of the nice outdoor bistros on the Main Street. Our meal started with a very nice foie gras paired with a sweet wine. Our dinner entrees were disappointing. I had the steak dish, while it was cooked correctly - but it was tough and somewhat flavorless. My wife had the lamb which was also tough. Service was not the best as we continuously had to flag down a waiter. Also there were a couple of flys that kept buzzing us while we were trying to eat - odd for an upscale indoor restaurant. We finished about 1/2 of our dinners paid our bill and left - no dessert no coffee. We were very disappointed with the experience.

8.5/10The food was not as good as we hoped the turbot was fishier then it should have been and the Guinea fowl was pretty tough. My potatoes were not crisp. The appetizers were good the langoustine was good as were the scallops the crust on the pate was a bit soft. But flavor was good. The chocolate mouse was good and the cheeses were good the wine, we had the local Ambroise white ,was very good. The setting was excellent but it was noisy in the room two large parties were there. White table cloth service was well done.

10/10A gastronomic deliciousness! Our Christmas lunch was devine! Food outstanding. Service and staff friendlyness top quality. My husband is highly allergic to any seafood and fish, and they accomodated him with meat courses instead of fish. Can highly recommend this restaurant.

10/10Excellent service and ambiance. The staff were very attentive and gracious. The chef made a wonderful salad not on the menu of mixed greens and tomato on request. It was wonderful. The turbot entree was amazing! The strawberry cake was not too sweet, excellent texture and flavors. A memorable experience! Well done! Well worth the value!

9.5/10The food was so good, service impeccable and attention to detail spot on. There was a light that had a flicker which was annoyingly distracting, I ordinarily wouldn’t mind such a thing but this was persistent and you couldn’t ignore it. A little back ground music would have lent to the ambiance and potentially distracted from the bothersome light. I would certainly go back and highly recommend it.

5/10This was our third visit but it will be the last. 36 is sadly not what it was. The food was tired with only one memorable dish. The dessert that should be the grand finally, we didn't even finish, really not nice. We were two of only five diners on a Sunday evening when a lot of restaurants are closed, so I guess it shows that our thoughts are shared by others. Two of the three staff were very pleasant and professional, but one clearly didn't want to be there. Too many good restaurants in Amboise for us to bother with this poor value one again.

9.5/10The service once we got to the table was very good and what you can expect for fine dining. Food was fabulous. It was off-season (late November) so dining room was 25% full, which could be expected anywhere in town. Only complaint was we were recieved at 6:50 for a 7:30 dinner with expectation of bar opening at 7:00, it didn't... but not a big deal given off-season.

5.5/10The restaurant is in a hotel; and away from the tourists restaurant area. Our hotel was next door. The room is beautiful. The service is a bit over the top yet simply questions about food item could not be answered depending on who you asked. They suggested we order the dessert soufflé in advance and we did. We waited over 30 minutes after dinner without explanation. Finally the soufflé came and we were told it had "fallen: more than once. it was not particularity good and frankly we should have been given an option to forgo it or at least not be charged!
