They do know how to cook! My wife and I concurred that the white asparagus (and corn) soup and ris de veau were delightful. We also agreed that the Paris-Brest looked better than it tasted. We arrived at opening on a Wednesday night, and the...greeting was a little perfunctory. In half an hour they were packed with locals. Three or four servers came by at different intervals, some more cheerful than others. I can't fault them for focusing on their regulars. That is what keeps a restaurant going. It's the kitchen that keeps them in the black. I get the impression they didn't care if we came back. That's a pity. At this price point, I expect greater hospitality.More

Although we had booked - and it had been confirmed twice - the restaurant was closed when we arrived. We have (hopefully) contacted the restaurant re this - so there may be a good explanation.

Had a really bad experience with the service at Salicorne for an anniversary dinner, despite talking to two managers. Sorry, can’t recommend to anybody who loves a smooth, warm hearted evening.

Ate here twice during recent stay & both meals were fantastic. We had the set menu with great choices and enjoyed all the elements. Service was efficient and the kitchen is open so you can see preparations. This wonderful cooking, with innovation and yummy flavours...are true to France. It was a delight to eat here - do go if you are in the area.More

Ambiance, we are told, is the most important attribute of a good restaurant. Someone has mentioned 'a contemporary setting' for La Salicorne. True - it was possibly a garage is immaculately decorated but a little 'boomy' - not that that did Kensington Place any harm...but you obviously won't find Rowlrey Leigh and Jeremy Paxman chatting on the next table. It does lack a little atmosphere.. The food is seriously good. We went for Sunday lunch when the menu is à la carte - during the week there is a 16€ set meal. Some of the starters, understandably (top quality ingredients) are the same price as the main courses.No problem, therefore, if you prefer to eat two 'smaller but delicious' starters rather than a starter and a larger main course. I had a generous starter of fresh, full of flavour crab meat. This was followed by 'a main' of onglet (skirt steak). The cooking juices themselves were perfect but the accompanying potato purée was the best I have had, EVER, as was the béarnaise sauce , My wife had palourdes (small clams like cockles) cooked with coconut milk and coriander followed by another starter of lobster ravioli - the lobster being very evident, especially in flavour. Great coffee too. The welcome and the service, by the patron(?) was polite, correct and efficient. No-one was kept waiting long even though he was on his own.We would have appreciated just a little more warmth, a smile or two, maybe even a little over the top 'loved having you' - but otherwise impossible to criticise. My wife says that she would like to go again - especially on a Sunday.lunchtime. .More

We were in the area for a few days and ate here twice. Food is really good and is very good value. The place is owned by the chef and he is clearly passionate about good food. Quality of the food on both nights was...excellent and the portions are generous. My only issue was the quality of the service which did not meet the standards the chef is setting. Having said that, I would definitely eat here again if I was to returnMore

Salicorne offers a good range of meat and vegetable dishes and a very good value Decouverte menu alongside the A la carte. The oueuf de poule croustillant was not the best contemporary egg dish I had on this short break to the Brittany/Normandy borderlands but...it was still very good quality. The poulpe was cooked to perfection and shamed my previous attempts to achieve a similar texture on the bbq. The fraises du pays was beautifully presented. There were a few very minor qualms, such as why when asparagus is so plentiful in the market, it was not available and so knocked out a starter without an alternative on offer. Similarly, when I asked for a substitute for the tempura cauliflower, I was offered mashed potato which already featured in my dish. Finally, though the restaurant was empty when we arrived, I didn't appreciate being offered what was patently the most compromised table on the premises, though I concede that is common restaurant practice. All in all, a very respectable meal which, if I was able to offer a more granular score, I would give Salicorne 3.75 blobs.More

What a perfect place. We went here twice with our young children (4, 6, 8), once for dinner and once for lunch. Both occasions are hard to fault - perfect food (“worth the detour”) and great service. We’re definitely coming back and we recommend this...restaurant to everyone. What a jewel in the crown of Agon-Coutainville. Try the onglet & puré de pomme de terre for the children and the raspberry dessert or the chocolate dessert. Good wine list as well! Excellent!More

We had an excellent meal at this restaurant. Tried the lobster and the langoustines in ravioli which were great. Meat portions in the mains were small. Good wine selection

We were very satisfied with everything, but the mid day menu was rather limited. There were only two different main courses on the menu; fish and fowl, but no meat. Service was attentive, courteous and swift.

Having visited this restaurant for the second time, we were again not disappointed. Excellent choice of menus, excellently prepared by the chef. We will definitely love to come again. A great newcomer in our top five list in LA Manche!

We had returned from a day in Granville and wanted an early meal - couldn't believe it when we came across this restaurant. The decor wouldn't be out of place in trendy East London, but more than that, the food was impeccable!! Tapas to start...- tuna and carpaccio- fab! Mains - veal and sea bass - one of the best tasting menus ever and so unexpected in Agon Coutainville! We finished off with Mille fleurre and a strawberry tart and both decided it was the best meal we had had in 14 days travelling in France - superbe!! Must be experienced!More

Our table of 3 people found the food to be exquisite. Dynamic, friendly service. Interesting and unusual deco. Probably expensive for the region but compared to Paris, the price was correct. Great place for a special outing
