8/10A good address simple menu focused on good ingredients well presented. Service was professional and friendly. Wine list affordable and good quality. Well worth taking the trouble to reserve a table here.

9.5/10Popular restaurant in the old centre of Blois (reservation recommended!); we were very kindly received, and service afterwards was also very kind; we chose the menu of the day (French cuisine with a modern twist) which was excellent

10/10Every dish on the menu was superb. My French is terrible (sorry) but the waiters didn’t seem to mind and were very charming and patient in English. Top class food which felt like very good value.

9.5/10Excellent food and service. My only minor criticism is that the rear room needs something to reduce the ambient sound of the guests, eg some carpet, as it is quite a noisy room. Highly recommend this restaurant overall

10/10Make your reservations in advance. The restaurant is small and cozy. This is surely one of the best dining experiences we have ever had in all of Europe. Don't miss it!!!

10/10After quite a long drive we were looking for somewhere with good food, pleasant ambience and efficient and friendly service. Le Castalet gave all of this and more. Good menu - small, but we like that, well prepared and well presented. Lovely atmosphere, I’d say nobody felt anything other than wholly welcome. Lovely owners (must be identical twins) charming throughout, able to accommodate and seemlessly manage a very varied clientele. So, we were very impressed and would happily recommend Le Castelet to Blois visitors.

10/10Excellent food and service! They even kicked the bathroom door in so my wife could get out when the lock broke and she was trapped (life experience). The place is EXCELLENT in all respects!

2/10It seems like they are running two restaurants - one for locals with super fast and attentive service, and another one for tourists with an hour wait for food and zero service. The French speaking couple that arrived at the same time with us finished food at the time we got a starter!!! The food is average, there's no music. Wouldn't recommend this place at all.

8.5/10Good but not great in my opinion. Had the fish special. I found the fish lacking in flavor but the veggies accompanying it were delicious.

6.5/10Great snails, average main courses. Well located but the dining room is small and not very special. Decent inexpensive wine selection. Service not particularly warm but efficient.

10/10Give us had a meal at the restaurant after it had been recommended by one of our work colleagues in Blois. Every course was fantastic, couldn’t fault it, would definitely go back given the opportunity.

10/10Set price format works well with the short menu. All food was excellent and service was great, also with a good level of English spoken.

C'est dans une maison du XVIème siècle, située au cœur du vieux Blois, à mi-chemin du château et de la Loire, entre l'ancienne abbatiale St-Laumer (aujourd'hui église St-Nicolas), et la fontaine Louis XII, que vous découvrirez Le Castelet. Marta, Gérard et toute leur équipe sauront vous accueillir et vous conseiller. N'hésitez pas aussi à leur demander des renseignements sur la région, ils se feront un plaisir de vous guider vers les manifestations les plus intéressantes ou les meilleurs producteurs de vins. En cuisine, la chef Andrée assistée de Jérémy, interprète une carte qui change à chaque saison, à partir de produits frais achetés tous les jours. Inspirée par la Touraine, avec parfois une touche médiévale (un des violons d'Ingres du patron), cette cuisine allie originalité et authenticité des saveurs. Nous mettons un accent tout particulier sur l'utilisation des produits locaux, issus de pratiques respectueuses de l'environnement... et de notre santé. Les viandes de réforme, les oeufs issus d'élevage en cage, les légumes cultivés hors-sol etc... sont strictement bannis. Par contre les chiens bien élevés sont les bienvenus. Nul n'est exclu au Castelet : vous avez moins de 10 ans ? Le menu junior est pour vous, vous êtes végétarien, vous est réservée, vous hésitez sur votre plat, vous déciderez au dernier moment si vous prenez ou non un fromage et un dessert ? L'important est que vous soyez bien, et que vous ayez envie de revenir après.
40 Rue Saint-Lubin, 41000 Blois
