La Terrasse du Héron sur Villeneuve-D'Ascq

Great restaurant. We came as a group (18 people). Helpful staff, excellent food and service! We'll be back (in a group or on our own). Highly recommended.

Pleasant restaurant, friendly staff. As already mentioned in the reviews, the portion of salmon terrine with three peppercorns and dill cream, even considering the price, was too small to be enjoyable. I recommend the semi-cooked foie gras with roasted beetroot, honey, and thyme (beetroot is served in a separate ramekin for those who don't like it). Regarding the main courses, the pan-seared scallops with celery root purée and pistachio were perfectly executed, the pan-seared prawns with Fourme d'Ambert sauce and curry were good (a small bowl for waste would be a nice touch), and the dish of the day (chicken blanquette) was good. However, the chicken gratin with Maroilles cheese and endives needs improvement as it was far too greasy (I pointed this out to the waiter). The selection of wines, cocktails, soft drinks, coffee, and even the Irish coffee was excellent.

My favorite restaurant in Villeneuve d'Ascq! The service is always top-notch! The food is super fresh and delicious! I highly recommend it!

My favorite restaurant, it's delicious, the service is always top-notch!

Great as usual 🤪 The team is always attentive, smiling, and kind 😉 Pleasant restaurant and, above all, the food is delicious 👍

Restaurant located near a park with an outdoor terrace: unfortunately it was raining - is that why we were a bit cramped inside? The service was nothing special, but the dishes were simple, with repeated starters and main courses.

Excellent welcome Varied menu Excellent daily special Delicious gourmet coffee

I had the opportunity to have lunch on the terrace and it was a real pleasure! The atmosphere was pleasant and the service very attentive. I chose the plant-based burger: a delight, generous and perfectly seasoned 😍. A great place that I recommend without hesitation, I will return with pleasure!

At the risk of being a spoilsport... we need to stop going crazy and giving 5 out of 5s all the time when we've had a good time eating something other than at home. We also need to judge the price in relation to what's on the plate. Example: the salmon terrine is more at home as a starter than as a main course. It's quite good, but the slices are thin. The other dishes are pleasant but not memorable cuisine. The quantities are a bit tight. It's a bit lacking in "quantity of surprise" to leave with a good memory. Then the detail that ruins everything: we ask for a pitcher of rosé called gris without checking the price. And on the bill: €19 for 50cl. That's €38 per liter. Purchase price €4 per liter at many winemakers in the south and for at least equivalent quality. In short, it's not a bad restaurant but nothing unforgettable... except the price of the rosé!

Top restaurant! Delicious food and incredible service! Thank you so much Eva! Great terrace in the sun! Go for it :)
