"First visit, not because of TripAdvisor reviews, but simple curious whether the place had lost its histore and glamour. And time has perhaps taken its toll, the ambience a bit tired, and placed on a trafficked road and across a building site. Inside, you notice...the area where the frutis de mer is prepared, adds to a perception of freshness which the oysters and shrimp plate delivered. The three different kind of salmon; smoked, gravad and rillette not quite so, the smoked with a dry rim, the gravad just salty. The main course, the ‘mérlu’ was delicious and served with different kinds of tomatoes, whilst the duck breast in pepper sauce passed an average test, but a large portion satisfying a hungry man. Cheese for dessert; nothing to write home about. Waiter reasonably serviceminded, but with several (and too many variations of daily specials /a la carte, some guidance would be in order. I think the restaurant needs to return to what it previously was renowned for, better simple and few dishes and do them well then it’ll also be there in another 50 years time!"
