19/12/2025: Lieu accueillant, avec un service agréable

04/03/2026: We enjoyed a quality meal, although the service was particularly rushed. The current crowds prevented us from staying longer.

29/01/2026: Excellent chicken stew on Tuesdays and Saturdays in winter.

04/03/2026: I absolutely do not recommend this place. There was a real contrast between the two owners, day and night. With the previous owners, everything was fine. With the new ones, we were treated with suspicion and judged unfairly. I felt very uncomfortable, stared at, and discriminated against. I was very disappointed by this experience.

26/02/2026: Nice place and friendly staff to stop for a drink.

16/02/2026: The menu is perfect, lots of options to choose, everything was delicious, the salads are big, definitely worth it for the price

14/02/2026: Very good, very warm welcome, I was impressed by the head waiter, his motivation and kindness, and the runner Hayat!

10/03/2026: Well, no... a restaurant is about the quality of the food: and it's there. But it's also about the service. While the young waitresses are smiling, the owner's annoyance is terribly palpable. The immediate dressing-down that greets customers outside ("no groups on weekends," "wait here until we come get you," "you won't be seated if your party isn't complete") quickly makes it clear that something special is going on here regarding customer relations... And the prices!!! Add to the cost of the dishes (2 deviled eggs = €16...) the systematic parade of extras: fries, sauces, €4, etc., and the pressure to order more. They also only offer one red wine, just to save time. In short: good meat, outrageous prices, a cute and clean place, but no cozy comfort... in short, stay home.

07/03/2026: We were a table of 10 last night celebrating a birthday. The food was good, but the service definitely ruined the experience. We felt rushed throughout the meal to finish our plates. At 11:10 pm on a Friday night, the waitress announced that the restaurant was closing in 5 minutes… quite surprising when a group was still at the table. When we started opening the birthday presents, we even overheard the waitress comment: “Oh, they’re opening the presents too!” For a bill of around €700, you expect at least a little consideration and professionalism. And to top it all off, some prices are clearly excessive: €4 for an extra sauce served in a tiny pot is hard to justify. It’s a shame, because the food is good, but with service like that and prices like these, the experience leaves a bitter taste.

21/02/2026: A truly wonderful time, a superb meal, and a lovely welcome in the upstairs dining room – perfect!

01/02/2026: A wonderful discovery. Traditional home cooking and quality ingredients. Unbeatable value for money at lunchtime. Located in the very pleasant castle district.

03/02/2026: The dishes are very tasty and flavorful. A great find!

21/01/2026: We love this restaurant, never disappointed. The dishes are very sophisticated and delicious. Perfect before a show at the fairgrounds or a movie.

24/02/2026: Delicious menu, updated weekly, at a reasonable price of €25, even in the evening. A discovery of new flavors every time. Pleasant dining room with well-spaced tables and comfortable chairs. Warm and impeccable service. Thank you to your team!

27/02/2026: A very pleasant place. A wonderful discovery by chance. The manager is lovely. The decor is also very original and colorful. Fantastic value for money: for 10 euros, a delicious and very generous dish... Unbelievable! EXCEPTIONAL! Go there quickly!!! Satisfied or I'll refund you myself...

11/02/2026: As usual, the Chabada salad was generous and delicious, and the crème brûlée was too ☺️ I appreciate the owner's kindness, his humor, and the songs from my youth! A must-visit in Pau.

23/03/2026: I recommend this hotel 100%. Both the food and the hotel services were perfect, and the spa was a real bonus – nothing to complain about. I will definitely return.

20/03/2026: A location offering stunning views of the beautiful Pyrenees Mountains and surrounding park. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with perfectly firm beds! The shower booth and bathtub are also large and have excellent water pressure! The service is great, making for a very pleasant hotel!

14/03/2026: We stopped by chance, trusting our intuition since we saw locals eating. It turned out to be one of the best decisions; the staff was very friendly, spoke Spanish, and the food was delicious. The price was reasonable. I should also mention that they were wonderful with our pet, which is always a bonus. We would definitely return if we ever go back to Pau.

24/01/2026: A wonderful little old-fashioned bistro with a family atmosphere and open kitchen. We were very pleasantly surprised. The homemade fries and desserts were delicious, the meat was high quality, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the portions were generous, all at unbeatable prices. We'll be back!

26/03/2026: The food is always good there. Never disappointed

27/02/2026: Disappointment! While it used to be good, fresh, and the service was impeccable, yesterday it was a disaster. An hour for a starter (Serrano ham) and a main course (veal breast with pasta) that was bland and tasteless, and to top it off, a waiter who dared to tell us that if we were in a hurry, we should just eat a sandwich! No, I no longer recommend this place. The food needs improvement, and especially the professionalism of the staff.
