La Vieille Porte - Speisekarte

Absolutely fantastic meal. Steak cooked to perfection. Mushroom tatties were magic. If you're in Le Mans and need a steak, go here!!

Everything - location, decor, service, wine and especially the food make this a spectacular restaurant. Please book as it is always busy and you would not want to miss out

...after Drivers Parade we found this cosy place, very very busy, but they found a table and served a very nice and tasty dinner ???????????????????????????????????????? we will come again ???????? Speisekarte ansehen

Dinner in between visits to the racetrack, and this bistro did not disappoint. Perfectly cooked steak, scrummy pepper sauce, and a delightful whipped mash. Couldn't fit in the dessert or cheese! Service was very good, and pricing was right.

Delicious 3-course meal and great service. It exceeded expectations even with all the great reviews we had read. Would recommend the salad with duck, the chicken, and make sure to try the fries. Location on a quaint pedestrian-only street added to the charm.

Had dinner on a Thursday night witnessed people being turned away. Foie gras starter as good as I've had anywhere followed by brochettes of beef for me and ham for her accompanied by a mushroom and potato mash. Pain Perdue to finish which seems to be popular this year, all in all a very good start to our holiday. Speisekarte ansehen

We visited this restaurant based on reviews and it did not disappoint. The menus of the day was excellent value at around €19 ( we had the upgraded version). Beef pave was excellent, good choice of reasonably priced wines and staff that were very patient with our limited French. A good. I tire of 24 Hour visitors and locals. Would definitely recommend and return.

Whilst living in Le Mans, my daughter was recommended to this excellent restaurant by French friends. So during the week of the 24 Heures du Mans, we all went there for her 21st birthday meal and it was superb! Their special mash potato was to die for, steaks and duck breast cooked just right, bread and soft cheese were served also, leaving just enough room for a delicious French dessert! With attentive service too!

We were travelling through Le Mans and stopped in the La Vieille Porte for dinner and what a meal it was. We were lucky enough to get a table by booking around 6:30 but if you can pre book it's advisable.The food is exquisite - typically French bistro style food and is delicious. The staff are friendly and between a bit of Franglais we managed to order. I had the Jambon au Sauce Poivre which if it is on should not be missed.The waiter suggested a lovely rose to accompany the meal which was great and suited our taste perfectly.Take your camera as the street where it is located is fantastic and looks great in picturesIf you're in Le Mans give it a go - you won't be disappointed!
