"Enfin un restaurant qui ne prend pas les touristes pour de simples clients de passage !Tout d'abord, pas de réservation possible, on vient et ils font leur possible pour vous servir dans les meilleurs délais.Ensuite, 3 choix possibles : terrasse face à la mer, à l'intérieur (baies vitrées donc on profite de la vue quand même et terrasse derrière).La carte est variée mais limitée donc on ne perd pas de temps à feuilleter un catalogue !Les suggestions sont affichées en plus de la carte et sont rappelées par les serveuses.Accueil au top, avec le sourire (le patron s'engage et c'est vrai !) et le service est rapide (oui oui, c'est particulièrement appréciable !). Petite visite au cours du repas pour savoir si tout va bien et toujours un coup d’œil pour vérifier la carafe d'eau, le panier de pain.. Comment dire que rien que le fait de ne pas avoir demander quoique ce soit pendant le repas est tellement appréciable !Un menu enfant est proposé à 10 euros pour les moins de 10 ans avec au choix nuggets ou steak et en dessert glace ou crêpe. Diabolo ou sirop à l'eau en boisson.J'ai choisi les moules roquefort et j'ai pu apprécié sa fraicheur, leur fondant et la douceur de la crème. Un vrai bonheur pour les papilles ! Les beignets de calamars sont également délicieux.Le choix des desserts est parfait et les coupes glacées sont très généreuses.Bref, un restaurant à découvrir et à redécouvrir !"

"We have just left the restaurant in amazement. We order 2 of their €22 Menus of 2 fish soup, 2 bass (fish of the day) a nectarine dessert and rum baba which had a €2 supplement. The soup was fine but the bass, when it arrived had been thoroughly over cooked to the point that the fish around the ribs had come away and were not served and what was served to my husband was dry to the point that the skin had come away and the flesh under was brown. When he complained about his (I ate mine as it was not quite as dry as my husbands) he was told that the tourists like it over cooked! The waitress then returned and informed us that the chef had said the bones were pink so it was fine I did point out that mine was not as bad but showed the girl the bone was not pink. My husband was asked if he would like to choose something else he selected 6 oysters (same cost for main as many others on the menu). They arrived after I had finished but he told the waitress the were delicious. Our desserts were then served they were okay but then we are ignored until all the tables around us had been cleared. We were not offered coffee just left until my husband asked for the bill. This too was ignored until I suggested to my husband that I may well walk back to my room as I was getting stiff sat for so long. At that point the guy who we had earlier asked for the bill disappeared and our waitress appeared with the card machine. My husband paid and then when I saw the bill I realised we had been overcharged. On looking at it again he saw that he had been charged for both the 2 menus and the oysters. He went in to complain and was told that it was because there was nothing wrong he just didn't like the fish. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and we now wish we had a photo as it was evident just to look at so be warned... take a photo of everything because if something is not right and you are offered something else YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR IT ALL!!!"
