“ Entramos por casualidad a comer allí, ya que por la hora que era la mayoría de los restaurantes estaban ya creando. El servicio fue correcto y la comida bastante buena, incluso las patatas pese a ser congeladas eran de muy buena calidad. Los postres la crema y la mouse de chocolate estaban muy buenas. ”
“ La choucroute a trouvé son nid dans cette brasserie saumuroise. On y retrouve toute l’ambiance d’une bonne institution authentique, proposant les classiques de la brasserie avec des portions copieuses et savoureuses.

“ Repas à l'improviste pour deux sans réservation. Bon accueil. Moules marinières et escalope Maupassant commandées, le tout rapidement servi et bien cuisiné. Charlotte à la figue excellente et mousse au chocolat bonne. Repas et discussion possible malgré la présence d'un grand groupe en salle ”
“ Un Vendredi soir de Septembre, en voyage sur Saumur, nous nous sommes arrêté. Accueil correct, Très bonne cuisine. Nous avons pris des salade en entrée et une entrecôte en plat. Les salades était vraiment trés bonnes, je pense que la viande manquait un tout petit peu de cuisson pour être à point mais la sauce à l'échalote est la mieux réussi que j'ai goûtée dans un resto (je fais pas le tour des guide Michelin non plus ). Il y avait peu de gens en salle, plus à l'extérieur, le fond musical était sympa (radio variée). ”
“ Bit tardy with the bill but there was a huge party in. ”

“ This is a positive review for the owner of Le Maupassant. We are two older tourists who recently had the misfortune to ‘lose’ their campingcar parked in Saumur. We had walked for miles when the owner/manager of the restaurant came to our assistance. Very generously she took us in her car to search the area. Although we weren’t able to find it then we are immensely grateful for her kindness and understanding. (We did find vehicle much later with the help of the police) Many, many thanks! ”
