Brasserie Vatel sur Nimes

When you book for 1 p.m. and the appetizer buffet isn't cleared until 1:30 p.m. When the entire table hasn't finished their meal. Don't even start clearing the plates. At the end, they bring us the bill without anyone asking if we want coffee. Perhaps you should consider updating your air conditioning, even if it's 37 years old.

Meal at Spritz Grill, great buffet, friendly welcome

Booked a meal at the Vatel restaurant, everything went perfectly from the tasting to the service, it was top-notch.

Absolutely excellent and exemplary service.

A brasserie to spend a pleasant time, attentive staff.

A wonderful discovery! The staff is attentive and there's a wide variety of dishes and desserts on the buffet.

Excellent restaurant. Impeccable staff. The dessert buffet is magnificent.

Mixed review. The restaurant's immediate surroundings aren't particularly appealing: the neighborhood is rather isolated, neither truly in the city center nor in the countryside. The building itself also looks a bit dated. As for the restaurant itself, the dining room is pleasant, well-laid-out, with bright and airy decor. The interior is noisy, but the terrace was perfect. However, the menu offered (Mother's Day) during our visit wasn't suited to the hot weather: dishes based on poultry in sauce, rather heavy desserts, and no ice cream or other refreshing options. There were no small bowls for the fruit salad. The cheese was excellent but served dry with a negligible amount of olive oil, without any other accompaniment. The quality of the food is decent, but the value for money seems average to me. The service is provided by very polite, smiling, and attentive young waiters. They sometimes lack foresight regarding basic needs (water, bread, etc.), but remain responsive and react quickly when a request is made. Overall, a decent experience thanks to a pleasant interior and friendly staff, but one that could be improved in terms of menu customization and value for money.

A wonderful discovery in Nîmes. A brasserie worthy of its name, just the way we like it. A very warm welcome, a good selection, and high-quality buffet items for starters and desserts. The recommended main course or the choice from the set menu was excellent, and everything was served by students from the hotel school, all very friendly and attentive to customers, supervised by a discreet and efficient staff member. Thank you for a very enjoyable experience.

Excellent cuisine. You'll find both familiar dishes and new and exciting flavors. There's a wide selection. The service is impeccable. The setting is chic but unpretentious. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal.
