Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Saint-Jean-De-Luz

21/11/2025: The experience began even before we unpacked: the welcome was so unfriendly that we almost missed the old-fashioned administrative offices. They were fifteen minutes late finishing cleaning the mobile home—no apologies, of course, that would be asking too much. The highlight? A clothesline collapsed on the terrace, which could have been put back up before we arrived… but clearly, attention to detail isn't their strong suit. When I had the misfortune to politely ask if the accommodation had been cleaned, I received a classic response: "Ugh, yeah," accompanied by an insolent grimace. Ah, the meaning of service… The mobile home itself is a masterpiece of minimalism. No kettle, no dishwasher, no toaster, no hangers, no radiator, no sink plug—and that's just the tip of the iceberg. The cupboards creak, the chairs creak, the doors creak… a veritable symphony of decaying woodwork. The cupboards crumble under your fingers, the wooden deck threatens to send you flying with its uneven planks, and a large patch of mold sits proudly in the kitchen, likely evidence of a leak that was never repaired. As for the atmosphere, well, let's just say we're in for a treat: spiders, numerous and comfortably settled, accompanied us from the very first night. Granted, we're in the middle of nature, but a little maintenance would have prevented the interior from resembling an entomological laboratory. The result: a hasty purchase of repellent, since we couldn't find the "thorough cleaning" option in the rental agreement. And the swimming pool? Let's talk about it: described as a "water park," it would be laughable if it weren't so pathetic. Too small, freezing cold despite the promise of a heated pool, and accessible via a dizzying slope completely impassable for children, seniors, or anyone with reduced mobility. One can already imagine the brochures: "Guaranteed thrills... just getting there!" And then there's the challenge of finding a parking space, because yes, it's best to take the car to tackle this perilous journey. The beach, advertised as 650 meters away? Technically, that's true. In practice, it's a dangerous crossing, without a sidewalk, on a narrow road where you risk your life with every step. An ideal walk for thrill-seekers... and adrenaline junkies. As for connectivity, even the Wi-Fi seems to have given up: only one connection per mobile home, just to test family solidarity in all its glory. The most ironic thing about all this? The famous "4 stars" proudly displayed. Perhaps they only shine in the managers' imaginations, but on the ground, it's hard to see even a single one. In short: this campsite has at least one redeeming quality—it makes you want to escape to the surrounding area, which is truly magnificent. We were supposed to stay a week, but the temptation to cut our trip short was too strong: we left three days early, grinning from ear to ear at the mere thought of finding real comfort elsewhere. If you're still hesitating: run, run fast, and thank me later.

21/10/2025: Never seen anything like it. Nonexistent service, sloppy cooking, no consideration for the customer. Scalding hot, overcooked, limp prawns, thrown unpeeled on two wilted salad leaves—it was supposed to be prawn salad. Seriously? The kids' menu? An insult. Nothing good, everything is greasy and full of oil, not even the bare minimum. We ended up laughing about it, but in hindsight: a sandwich bought in a bakery, facing the sea, would have been a feast compared to this. Move on. There are much better options—everywhere else.

19/10/2025: Pleasant servers. Service a little slow, but the complimentary coffee was a nice touch. Personally, I found the cipirrons too oily (needs to be improved).

21/10/2025: A restaurant that far exceeds its ratings. While passing through Saint-Jean-de-Luz, we came across this restaurant even though it hadn't been recommended to us. The friendliness, the owner's wine recommendations, and the quality of the cod were all excellent.

28/09/2025: Avoid!!! Tourist trap Sangria diluted with water! Menu not worthy of a restaurant, a so-called paella served in a casserole dish, undercooked risotto, no saffron, no chorizo, no shrimp, a disgrace!!! Fried smelts, no accompanying sauce, Iberian charcuterie, not even butter!!! Nothing!! Long wait between the starter and the main course!!!

03/09/2024: When you have a memorable experience in a bad way like this, you take the time to write it down, because neither French nor Spanish should have to endure this restaurant. RUN AWAY. - 3 bitter old managers behind the bar have only one ability: to shout at the young waitresses who arrive crying at our tables, without a manager to help them manage a 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. service. - Direct impact of their lack of organization: 30 minutes to get bread (!) 1h30 wait to get the main course (!!), tables tired of waiting everywhere, and managers who stir up even more air because they drown in a glass of water. - In fact, if you made the effort to ignore the wait and the dirty tables, you would think that the kitchen was ok, but unfortunately it was almost cold on arrival, with pieces of glass in the dishes in sauce (!!!) Hey, managers, what if you reworked your organization? That would be a greater success than making people cry in the workplace.

02/09/2024: The food is bad, oily potatoes fried hours before and reheated, stinky fish, desserts with a bad taste and the smell of a dirty cloth, the girl who served smelled bad. Very high price for poor quality that it serves. Awful
