A decor that sets the tone
Avenue de la Mer in Pornichet, Sauvage plays the card of unique decor · large black and white mural illustration of a woman in sunglasses, camel leather banquettes, leopard print coasters, soft lighting. The tone is set · intimate, slightly quirky, perfect for a dinner for two or a cocktail aperitif with friends.
The team is young and engaged, the welcome is warm and the cuisine is led by a passionate chef. The menu changes regularly with the market · inventive dishes, careful presentations, mastered cooking. Bistronomy here is serious, but without solemnity.
The cocktail bar as an extension
Beyond the cuisine, Sauvage particularly takes care of the bar area · original signature cocktails, creations made to order according to your tastes, high-quality spirits. A well-stocked shelf, a skilled bartender, and glasses that pair (very well) with or without snacks to nibble on.
Good news for food lovers · you can come just for a drink or combine cocktails + dinner. Expect €12-15 per cocktail, €60-70 per person for a full dinner with starter, main course, dessert. Reservation recommended, especially on Friday and Saturday evenings · the room is small, word of mouth works well.

Antonin's advice
« One of my good addresses to change from La Baule without driving 30 minutes. The service is young, motivated, the cuisine is refined and the cocktails (really) good. My advice · arrive around 19:30 for a cocktail aperitif at the bar, then dinner. Short menu but what comes out of the kitchen is always spot on. Reserve via Instagram DM, it's the most effective way. »
