L'Ardoise - Menú

This smart restaurant is located on the cathedral. We arrived at 12 without booking and a long time ago the tables were all, but completely taken. Many seemed to be regular. The selection of foods was good in the Prix Fixe menu and good value. The food we chose was really delicious and well presented. Service was good and unobtrusive. A place to return.

Our tour bus stopped in the historic part of Meaux,France for a quick lunch after our visit to the World War I Museum. We were lucky to get to L'Ardoise quickly and were treated with a table outside and an excellent lunch on a comfortable July...day. I choose a special day. I couldn't find out what it was, but knew it was scallops. I thought they were fresh. The court was wonderful. The service was excellent with a server that bravely tried to speak English. It was a great start to our French WWI Tour.

In Meaux for the first time and looking to eat, left the choice to in infrequent travellers in the group. By using Tripadvisor they came up with this restaurant as their choice and it was very good. Good simple menu with varied options for all tastes, staff helpful in explaining what we could not work out, decent portions and good wines at reasonable prices. Five of us had a good mix from the menu and all meals were very good. Good location next to the cathederal. One to come back to next time in Meaux.

We really enjoyed our meal and drinks.Good choices on menu not too short and not too long either which is always a good sign. Very good French dining restaurant, in an interesting location, a world away from fast food but not overpriced. So in one review the family who were disappointed when looking for lower priced burgers would definitely have been happier elsewhere. Quite a busy evening but service was perfect without being 'in your face' which is as bad as being ignored. Also no mistakes which is becoming rare.Un excellent repas, service de qualité sans faute, y compris le cuisson. On reviendra.

We visited Meaux for some food while our children were at Eurodisney as it is the closest big city. We drove to the cathedral and were lucky enough to find an L'Ardoise that was beautiful among him. The menu is written in French and on a table... they bring about so obviously changes daily. We asked if they speak English and get a fantastic flowing waiter who explained everything thoroughly. The selection of foods was excellent and the standard of food was excellent. It was also great to see the local cheese, Brie de Meaux on the menu, which is a personal favorite of mine. I couldn't recommend L'Ardoise very much.

On a day trip to Meaux, my husband and I came across this lovely restaurant. We really enjoyed how welcome we felt immediately upon arrival and liked the ambiance of this restaurant as well. The menu is on a chalk board and so it was...shown to us promptly after we were seated. My husband chose a hamburger and I chose the fish special. The service was prompt and friendly and we both really enjoyed our meals. We even commented that it was one of our best meals on our trip to France. The prices were reasonable too. We feel very fortunate to have experienced a dining experience at L'Ardoise and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone visiting the Meaux area.

L'Ardoise is a nice enough venue and while the food was reasonable there were a few touches that left me feeling hard to award it more than an average rating, so here's where I felt it let down: Two of our three for lunch had...the warm baked cheese with salad which was fine the third went for the unusual dish of poached egg with fois gras this definitely didn't work for me, the fois gras was barely noticeable and the egg only cooked on the surface and very watery uncooked underneath. Mains came two burgers and one duck with apricot sauce, which was OK and the duck nicely cooked. The burgers ordered medium were well done so pretty dry, the roblechon sheese was nice and the fries also cooked...
