"We've been going here for a few years. The appeal was good quality fresh local seafood and veg, simply prepared, and reasonably priced. Bistro style and informal. Lunch menu at 19€ was a 3 way starter, fish main, and choice of dessert. This week's lunch experience took it off our list. Why? The menu has morphed into a 2 course 14€ with no choice, or an eye popping 3 course 35€ menu with very little more choice. The fish main although well cooked tends to be downmarket type fish ( see some of the 1-3 star French reviews - mackerel, cod) and no vegetation other than the accompanying dauphinoise. My wife upgraded to the lobster main ( 5€ supp) which was truly underwhelming - hardly any meat and watery - dare I say it...possibly frozen. The front of house lady has an attitude problem but might do well with a career move into a correctional institution. (Is it because we are British? Because we voted to leave?) We were treated to a rapid-fire uncompromising interpretation of the menu ( in French of course) with particular emphasis on what we couldn't have - amazing rhetoric when there are only half a dozen things on it! On conclusion she fixed us with a triumphant stare and a forced smile that didn't quite get there but stopped at a disdainful sneer. We lived in France for 3 years, our kids went to French schools, we don't have a problem with the language - but this was intentional alienation. I chose randomly, ordered a pichet, and looked forward to getting out.... it should not be like this. Limited choice, cheap ingredients, priced up and inhospitable. Why would you?"

I called in here for a quick lunch. My haddock with fresh pasta had a delicious sauce with it. A good piece of Tome de Bordeaux finished my meal off nicely. It isn't a cheese I've had before but I'll try to find it again. It has a lovely herby outer.Good value, good food.

Cherbourg is a tourist city, but we were the only English dining in this restaurant today. If locals eat at a restaurant then it has got to pass muster in my book.It was a non pretentious place that served good honest food, seafood being the speciality. A nice ambiance and good service. Would certainly revisit when over there again.

We have lunch on weekdays. The quality of products is excellent! Reasonable prices. It is a very simple and sober menu. Everything is homemade. I ate 6 delicious oysters and then fish with the old vegetables, the blend of flavors were great. The dessert was a crème brûlée with saffron, a true delight! For 19 €! The welcome was on the other hand a bit dull but the place itself is nice. I recommend this place !!
