Le Saint-Jacques, 12 rue Oranger tel 0235840254
I heard a lot about this place in different guides and was full of expectation. But after the meal, a little bit deceived. Intimate dining room in 18th century style. The cabillaud was dry and the filet de rouget overcooked. But we caught up on the marché de la mer au beurre de legumes and a moving pigeon en cocotte. Aumoniére de glace aux pommes was perfect. Menus for lunch
11.50 €. Menus dinner: 19-36 €.
La Marmite Dieppoise, 8 rue Saint Jean tel 0235843112
Not far from the harbour, a rustic décor where you can dine around the unavoidable marmite de la mer (four sorts of fish. Soupe de moules safranée, filet de bar braise, et étuvée crémeuse de fenouil, damier au chocolat sauce pistache. Menus for
24.50 to 35.25 € .
