Reviews Summary
L'Artisan Épicier is praised for its original and flavorful cuisine, with a focus on expertly blended spices and quality products. Diners appreciate the friendly and professional staff, as well as the reasonable prices. While most experiences are delightful, a few minor issues like undercooked dessert crusts have been noted.
"The Yuzu Vinegar and Mirabelle Vinegar are very tasty! The owner and the shop woman are very nice and friendly, and explained a lot how we could use the vinegar or spices. We could also taste the vinegar before we bought. We will definitely come back here if we are in the region!"

"(Translated by Google) For lunch we enjoyed two different dishes, my husband chose a plate of squid with rice and small vegetables, hearty and very spicy. I had a Spanish dish of rice, chipolatas and small vegetables, excellent. The boss welcomed us pleasantly and recommended my husband for certain spices. He even offered to create a curry for her at her special request. The prices are correct, a great address to remember 👍
(Original)
A l’occasion du déjeuner nous avons apprécié deux plats différents, mon mari avait choisi une assiette de calamars riz et petits légumes, copieuse et bien épicée. J’avais pris un plat espagnol riz, chipolatas et petits légumes, excellent. Le patron nous a accueillis agréablement et a conseillé mon mari pour des certains épices. Il lui a même proposé de lui créer un curry à sa demande particulière Les prix sont corrects, une belle adresse à retenir 👍"

Les meilleurs restaurants de Nancy, notre sélection
Dans son échoppe façon bazar des Mille et Une nuits, le maestro des poudres Julien Burtez invente des alliages d’épices goupillés pour les palais occidentaux. Traduction : moins forts en piment mais tout aussi aromatiques. On y déniche des mélanges pour à peu près tout : curry, couscous, chimichurri, zaatar… mais aussi des poivres lointains (Jamaïque, Sichuan, Madagascar…), des sels rares - noir de Hawaï, bleu de Perse - des condiments, tapenades…
