what an amazing fund today. fabulous French restaurant. wonderful food and first class service. the waitress was so efficient and friendly. if we were to stay longer, we would have returned for more. excellent value, divine food. well done. thanks for making our Monday.

we were recommended this restaurant by our local hosts and although we had a good meal, the menu was quite limited and the place is missing in the atmosphere. in the winter it would feel much more comfortable, as it is very small and traditionally decorated, but on a hot summer day it seemed quite dark.

My wife and I enjoyed a delicious dinner at La Madeleine de Proust, including an excellent bottle of wine from the Loire Valley. The restaurant was within easy walking distance from our hotel, Hostellerie-Chateau-Chaumont, Like many restaurants in France, it is quite small, so it...is best to make reservations in advance.

First the restaurant looks, at first glance to be unimpressive, don’t be fooled. The food and service were quite good, it punches well above it’s weight. The menu is relatively simple and understated with a simple selection, but prepared, cooked and served impeccably. The narrowish...wine list provided sufficient selection and the prices were good. All in all, a very good meal enjoyed by all.

Four of us had dinner - it's only open 7-8.15 - and it was lovely. We all had the 3 course set menu for €28 per person plus the drinks. The boys had beer and the girls had the cocktail of the day aperitif which was so good we had 2. Despite our pathetic French the very friendly and efficient waitress served us up some delicious food including prawns in whiskey and curry cream sauce (an absolute delight) and a beef fillet dish which melted in the mouth. But the piece de la resistance was the 'assiette de gourmand' - a sampler plate of all the desserts they serve (2€ supplement but worth every cent) which was just gorgeous. Bill was €150 euros for 4, including drinks. Not the cheapest meal we'...

Visited this restaurant based on local reviews and were not disappointed. Warm welcome when we arrived, menu was provided in English which was useful although the waitress could easily have explained, service was polite and efficient and the food was the best yet sampled locally...and actually more reasonably priced. Starters of tomato and mozzarella were delicious and I tried the snail and spinach ravioli which was interesting as I’d never tried snails before, very tender and lovely garlic. Mains: I loved my beef fillet, another had duck breast that was also so tender and perfectly cooked and my wife had a fish fillet that was gorgeous. Wine reasonably priced too and the two children had ch...

We have been visiting La Madeleine de Proust for lunch for a number of years now, on our annual pilgimage to see the Garden Festival at Chaumont. This year we were surprised to find new decor and new proprietaires... and a very new menu hence...another review. My wife started with perfectly cooked scallops in a sweet chestnut sauce. We both had dorade (sea bream) served on a bed of leeks. We were a little worried that it might be a bit bland, but it was absolutely delicious, the fish cooked to perfection and the finely shredded leeks were served in a lovely veloute sauce. For dessert my wife had the madeleine autour de l'orange, where the madeleines were accompanied by orange segments, candi...
