L'Auberge de Bagatelle
Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€
Sarthois born and bred, chef Jean-Sébastien Monné is originally from these parts. He presides over this former inn in which the industrial style of a light-filled metal-framed extension meets the bucolic charm of the garden and terrace. He cultivates the art of working with small local producers and is devoted to the joys of rooftop beekeeping. Thanks to the meticulous work that goes into the selection of impeccable-quality ingredients, he is able to put his own more modern spin on the classics: Angus beef prepared as a tartare, breaded and fried quail's egg, puffed potato; duck from Canard So

Sit out on the pleasant terrace set up in the garden, on the banks of the River Vègre, and treat yourself to a fine dining interlude courtesy of the chef's cooking, which is always in touch with the seasons. The contemporary dishes, which are deliberate and meticulous, make use of the finest local ingredients, including supreme of Loué chicken stuffed with onions and morel mushrooms, first-harvest vegetables and a creamy poultry jus. La Table du Coq, the hotel's second restaurant, serves simpler fare.

L'Éveil des Sens
Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€
The striking metal fretwork façade of this restaurant on the outskirts of Mayenne is well worth a gander. Once inside, you will be greeted by a tastefully understated snug dining room. It is the stomping ground of a husband-and-wife team, chef Nicolas and Isabelle Nobis, both locals, who honed their skills with Bernard Loiseau and Georges Blanc. Simplicity and natural are the hallmarks of the chef's cooking, who strives to work with plants and vegetables sourced from local producers. The regularly renewed menu reverently respects the seasons.

Grand Hôtel de Solesmes
Classic Cuisine
€€
White asparagus, hollandaise sauce; slow-cooked egg, artichoke emulsion; saddle of lamb, chickpea purée and, above all, the excellent Cointreau hot soufflé… A reliable family-run establishment that defies its age and serves delicate, classic cuisine that immediately wins diners over; no corners are cut when it comes to the quality of the ingredients. What's more, the welcome and service are charming and do justice to this former coaching inn, which, in the 19C, welcomed the monks of the nearby Benedictine abbey.

Maison Nipa

This restaurant, opened by an experienced Franco-Philippine couple (Jason is in charge of savoury dishes, while Sharon rustles up desserts), specialises in Gallic cuisine influenced by the flavours and aromas of the Philippine archipelago. The food takes you on a culinary tour from Sarthe to the Philippines, depicted by Croisic squid à la “Adobong Pusit”, stuffed with a sisig of bellota chorizo and coated in a subtle cuttlefish ink sauce or wild duck with coffee-flavoured ceps and an “Adobo” sauce, together with other delicately perfumed dishes that might feature sweet-savoury or surf-turf not

At the entrance to medieval Le Mans, the team of this former salt loft has one goal in life: to please themselves and their customers! A contemporary vibe and top-quality ingredients (lobster, turbot, foie gras) with bold, authentic flavours, all of which washed down with a fine selection of Rhône, Loire and Bordeaux tipples.

Luc Revert, a young chef from Le Mans, has returned to his roots after several years in the South of France and then in Paris, notably at Frédéric Simonin. The chef's generous and straightforward cooking is a joy. The small menu of carefully prepared dishes revolves around quality ingredients. The beef fillet is a good example of his style: tender grilled meat, soft gnocchi, a balanced garlic cream, black garlic condiment, rich jus and fragrant lovage oil. The clementine tartlet impresses with its crispy pastry, creamy yuzu-tarragon filling and vibrant clementine sorbet. Friendly and professio

Close to the famous motor racing track, Circuit des 24 Heures du Mans, this family-run restaurant is decorated with abstract patterns and uses crockery made by a local artist. It was established in 1962 by the current chef's parents, and holds the Sarthe region close to its heart. Bringing to bear solid technical skills, chef Xavier Souffront composes flavoursome dishes that are in tune with the times, without shunning tradition, and highlight ingredients from his beloved terroir. Don't miss the langoustine ravioli, one of the restaurant's classics. The fine wine list is sure to be a hit with
