Les meilleurs restaurants en Saintes-Maries-De-La-Mer

02/03/2026: I'd spotted this restaurant on Google Maps beforehand. What a great idea! We had a pitcher of sangria here; it was a little spicy but delicious. We also ordered the charcuterie platter, which was incredible, and the croquettes were also very good. A truly flawless experience that earns this place a spot on our list of favorites! Bravo!

10/11/2025: I stumbled upon this tapas restaurant that served after 9 pm. It's worth noting that in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, in winter, it's difficult to find a restaurant still serving after 9 pm. The service from the grandmother is excellent. The atmosphere is friendly, and even if everything isn't homemade, the value is still good. I ended up going two nights in a row. A very good place.

03/05/2026: Received by the owner this Thursday after a sleepless night with two children. At 1 p.m., there was no one at reception or in the restaurant. I called out, "Is anyone there?" A brunette woman arrived at the desk. I smiled and told her there was no one at the hotel. "Not at this hour," she replied. "Besides, your room isn't ready. Come back at 2:30 p.m. We told you check-in is at 3 p.m." "I'll do you a favor by letting you in at 2:30 p.m." The welcome was worthy of a government-run hotel! As for the rest: no towels at the pool. I went to the desk and ran into the same woman again. She told me, "I'll lend you towels, but you have to bring them back here. Don't leave them at the pool. It's not even peak season yet..." In short, a 4-star hotel, but the owner should be working at Fresnes prison.

03/05/2026: A wonderful stay at this hotel, with attentive and friendly staff! The hotel is beautiful and intimate, and the restaurant was delicious and plentiful. We also tried the spa, a true haven of peace.

02/03/2026: 2 hours and 10 minutes for a starter, main course, and coffee... definitely only order one course because once the starter is served (quickly), you're hooked and the long wait begins... Otherwise, apart from one waitress who absolutely must find another job, they're friendly... liars like they're tooth-pullers – "It's coming right away, sir!!!" – but friendly! A bit pricey for what it is. 🤔

03/01/2026: Superb restaurant overlooking the harbor. A delight! The cuisine is refined, the menu is excellent, and it also includes vegetarian options. The staff is very pleasant and attentive. A must-try!

06/05/2026: ABSOLUTELY AVOID!! We were very disappointed with this restaurant. Based on the reviews and the menu, which advertised "homemade" cuisine, we thought we were in for a treat. We ordered the "homemade" burger with a salad and fries, but the burger was very mediocre. The bun was industrial; even McDonald's burgers are more substantial. The fries were also industrial, and the salad consisted of just a single leaf. It's hard to believe it was homemade. We were very disappointed with the quality of the food, and the same goes for the paella (the fish and meat were overcooked). To make matters worse, the mayonnaise was three months past its expiration date. The waitress had no solution. This is a tourist trap; I really don't recommend it. We are very disappointed that the owner doesn't make more of an effort to satisfy customers.

03/05/2026: Nice restaurant. However, the Bolognese pasta wasn't good. The sauce was too runny… and the beef burger was quite greasy. Perhaps we made the wrong choice?!

20/05/2026: We ordered two different salads, a camembert cheese and a caesar salad, the caesar had a lot of mosquitoes in it and so we complained about it and it was taken back but then we were told that they serve it because it is normal because there are mosquitoes there. When paying, they want to pay for both dishes even though we complained about it at once and haven't eaten anything else and weren't offered anything else either. Very poor service and communication.

17/05/2026: A fantastic experience at this restaurant, which helped make our stay in the Camargue unforgettable. The paella was excellent, the children's menu was perfect, the crêpes were delicious, and on top of that, the service was attentive (and the kids got extra ketchup!), with live guitar and violin music by GIPSY. It's clear the customers are regulars. We would be too if we lived nearby! (And we arrived as a group of eight without a reservation – they kindly made room for us.)

08/03/2026: A wonderful discovery! Despite it being the off-season, the welcome was exceptionally warm. We were served promptly in a friendly atmosphere with local accents and colors, which immediately immersed us in the region's ambiance. The bull stew was excellent, full of flavor and very authentic. A real treat. A small detail that made all the difference: with our coffee, the waiter brought us a small slice of raisin flan. A thoughtful and much-appreciated touch that demonstrates the restaurant's hospitality.

01/03/2026: Terrible welcome, dogs are not welcome. We were very disappointed by the waiter's completely self-important behavior. P.S.: Your salt is damp.

24/02/2026: Nice snack bar with good food and a friendly atmosphere.

22/10/2025: We spent 14 days in Saintes Maries and ate 13 times at this wonderful, simple restaurant. We had fish or seafood every evening, which was amazing. The value for money is absolutely spot on. The service is friendly, fast, and courteous. One thing is for sure: we'll be back. Many thanks to the chef and his fantastic team.

04/04/2026: Very nice terrace, good food, a great time to be had, the service is good

14/06/2026: We came as a group of 16 adults and 6 children, and everything was perfect 👍🏼 The fish soup was delicious. Thank you for your hospitality.

19/05/2026: A warm, friendly, and welcoming atmosphere, excellent, flavorful, and home-style cooking. Especially the incredibly tender Gardienne de Taureau (bull stew), a truly authentic burrata salad, and Michel's magnificent apple tart. The fish is fresh from the day's catch. I highly recommend this restaurant; it offers one of the best value-for-money ratios in Les Saintes. Book quickly! It's also wheelchair accessible. I give 5 stars to the entire team. Bravo and thank you to everyone!

06/04/2026: Super welcoming staff, always smiling 😁. Hearty breakfasts at reasonable prices with delicious dishes... I loved the atmosphere, the place, and the staff. I'm going back tomorrow 👍🏽👍🏽

11/06/2026: Very friendly staff. The daily special was delicious. The fish gratin is highly recommended. A well-balanced menu selection overall.

07/06/2026: La Chamade is simply a must-visit in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer. From the moment you arrive, you're greeted by a wonderful family team, where siblings pour their hearts, energy, and professionalism into serving their guests. Here, they don't just serve you; they welcome you with a sincerity and generosity that are becoming increasingly rare. The terrace is magnificent, ideally located, with a warm and friendly atmosphere that immediately invites you to relax.

La Chamade is one of those places where you leave with a smile, already eager to return. If you're visiting Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, don't miss this wonderful place. A true gem, run by a passionate family who cherish the art of hospitality. #TheirHeartBeatsTheCamargue 🌾🦩

13/05/2026: The campsite is close to the town and the beach. We felt comfortable here. Unfortunately, the pool wasn't open yet (mid-May). The pitch we were given was okay. In a few years, the trees should provide shade. Overall, it was very quiet here.

12/05/2026: Beware, they don't give refunds. It's a scam. They won't refund a reservation made two months before the date... and four years later, still no refund... Beware, it's a scam!

31/05/2026: We stumbled upon this place by chance, and the gypsy flamenco atmosphere was excellent. We ordered bull stew, duck salad, and warm goat cheese. It was delicious! The servers were very friendly and the prices were reasonable.

27/05/2026: Terrible food The only positive thing is the friendly staff As for the rest... forget it...

19/04/2026: Ugh, ugh, ugh, what a joke! Sandy clams, overcooked, dry baby squid, a turbot the size of a baby's portion—even a sole is bigger! Outrageously expensive, and the staff didn't want to work. We felt like we were bothering them. And for April, the season's just starting, and we already didn't want to go... Good luck with the rest of your adventure!

07/04/2026: The mussels we ate here a few days earlier were delicious, even if the portion was small. So, "small but delicious." Yesterday evening, we were turned away at 8:30 p.m. with the explanation that they were closing and tidying up the kitchen. Half an hour later, we passed by the restaurant again. A French-speaking couple was sitting at a table with a full plate of food. What are we to make of that?
