Les meilleurs restaurants en La Rochelle

08/10/2024: Very nice. 2 food trucks, one land, one sea DJ On the sand Safe for children

03/10/2024: Very nice for a drink at the end of the day, you can also eat burgers or something else. Atypical corner with sea view

24/09/2024: Excellent, even for a group thanks to the upstairs room.

23/09/2024: It's such a shame! I've wanted to try this restaurant for a long time. The dishes are good, and correspond to the promise (a modern blend of local and seasonal produce). But the service and timing is catastrophic. We had reserved for 8 p.m., at 9 p.m. I kindly pointed out to the waiter that we had had 2 appetizers (out of the 3 announced) and still no main course. 9:15 p.m., the first course arrives (there are 7 on the menu...), but the third appetizer has been forgotten. Of course, it was brought back to us afterwards, it would have been a shame to miss it because it was delicious (oyster and crispy pig's ear with green leek oil). The glasses of wine pairing with food and wine are served after the dish they are supposed to enhance (well after... when the plate is empty). The last course was served at 11:45 p.m.... 30 minutes between 2 courses is acceptable in a brasserie between the starter and the main course for example, but not in a gourmet restaurant, not at this price. The servers seemed a little overwhelmed, but it was quite "quiet" in the kitchen (this is the disadvantage of having an open kitchen, the customers see everything). I understand that there may be a shortage of staff, but you should warn customers, and accommodate if possible. In short, I wouldn't come back but that's a shame.

23/11/2024: No more pancakes at 4 p.m. on a Saturday, it's a shame but it happens, I order a chocolate cake which will certainly not arrive with the drinks, after a questionable wait. When we leave we are criticized for wanting to pay the bill in several installments, a general feeling that the boss has no consideration for the customers... Not in the habit of leaving bad reviews, yet here, it seems fair to me Hoping that the service will improve by reading this comment

07/11/2024: Always very nice to eat here, economical and friendly omelette for a quick meal. When eating on the terrace, you will have a very elegant and unobstructed view of the Place de l'Hôtel de Ville, and the owner will, as always, welcome you with rare kindness. Concerning the quality of the air, people were smoking next to me, and luckily the winds were favorable to me, so I was able to breathe 95% pleasant air.

08/08/2024: Authoritarian and unfriendly owners We won't go over it again

20/07/2024: Great food, great service. Thank you.

06/09/2024: Simple but very good food! And a very warm welcome!

04/09/2024: Very good pancakes, fresh and quality products

16/09/2024: Nice place for a dinner with a view of the port. The service is impeccable, the staff are smiling (even in the middle of August with a crowded restaurant) and we had a great time. The dishes are prepared with fresh, quality ingredients. Don't forget the aperitif cocktail which adds something positive to the experience.

15/09/2024: Super nice! Top ceviche, very beautiful and very good foil mold!!! Only one small problem: no Saumur on the menu 😉

07/07/2025: Padthai wasn’t a pad thai it was more like fried noodles. Ordered Ramen but received other item. It was same as Fried noodles just noodles design was changed. Dont expect as you seen in the picture 🤣 But owner is nice also service person. Eat with your own risk.

04/07/2025: Really not great, but you can do worse so 2*.

03/11/2025: Nice wine bar, with varied entertainment.

13/09/2025: At €9.60, the most expensive half-pint of IPA in the city center... For an industrial beer. The day before its permanent closure, there was a 45-minute wait before being served, a waitress who didn't remember the order, and Sophie who didn't even give a hand to her struggling employees... A bar closed in winter and therefore not participating in the life of the neighborhood... The only positive point on the menu are the micro-exhibitions and regular concerts, rare in the city. A bar I won't miss! Have a good trip, Sophie!

06/09/2024: Service rapide. Galette complète à 9,20 € (copieuse et pâte épaisse). Présence d'une terrasse. Dommage que l'eau en carafe ne soit pas fraiche (surtout en été).

04/09/2024: The only restaurant that did not refuse us at 2:55 p.m. And we certainly did not regret it. All the ordered dishes were hot, tasty, and the staff were friendly. Delicious espresso. Opening - pancake burger! Deliciously!

12/11/2024: Devoir payer en supplément le pain et le beurre....un peu too much... Sinon les sardines étaient excellentes. Les huîtres délicieuses. Le verre de bordeau blanc très bien servi. Au soleil sur la terrasse. Et après manger il y a un lavabo avec savon...on peut manger ses sardinesxavec les doigts.

01/11/2024: Restauration sur un bateau avec terrasse au bord du port de La Rochelle,près des tours. Huîtres très charnues,excellentes plus salées que chez nous (44)couteaux et poulpes à la plancha: un régal un bon moment pour nous et un concept sympa ! Prix corrects

23/09/2024: Nice, well-restored warehouse, friendly staff but... Quite expensive for the dishes offered I didn't like the gourmet coffee

16/09/2024: The food was great but they forgot one of the dishes and that meant we were waiting 40 minutes for them to bring it, once they brought it to us, not even an apology

22/01/2025: Great coffee, beautiful summer view and excellent staff

21/01/2025: A perfect place to have a coffee or hot chocolate outside in the sun on a beautiful winter day facing the sea

24/10/2024: No… The welcome needs to be reviewed, the guy at the bar is very haughty, he deserves to have one!! Just there to get some money, if you're looking for a warm place with sociability, don't go there! ! Drinks at the bar are also prohibited!! Lol incredible…!!

22/10/2024: A very affordable driver with a warm welcome. Exhibitions by local artists. In short, very nice

18/09/2024: Café Snack “Le Chougare” (= Sugar!) just opposite the La Rochelle SNCF train station. Very warm welcome by the owners (Jean-Noël and his wife). Very reasonable prices (much more than others in the same sector…). Family type bar (not “Tourist trap”). Ideal for people or students passing through the area, especially between the train station and the different schools. Very clean. In addition, a big advantage for internet users: as much as you want on the terrace or 20 minutes indoors (editor's note: yes, indoors, you have to leave room for others...). Good and economical breakfast (coffee + pastries). All I have to do is try the sandwiches, the homemade dishes and the wraps which all look very good. I recommend this small business, especially for young and old looking for peace and quiet, both to study and to chat in peace. Provisional score: 19/20.

09/09/2024: Delicious quiche and excellent homemade flan in an establishment that exudes good humor. Very practical for a quick bite to eat between two trains, or when connecting a train and regional coaches at the bus station.
