Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Saint-Jean-Pied-De-Port

26/02/2026: A delightful Basque break in an authentic restaurant! Warm welcome and local dishes. Highly recommended!

22/01/2026: The service was a bit mediocre; they rushed you to serve yourself and clear your table. The food quality wasn't too bad. However, the portions were very small.

23/02/2026: Dish of the day, excellent dessert, excellent

19/02/2026: The beef steak and side dish were truly delicious, the dessert excellent, and the setting on the banks of the Nive in a panoramic room is beautiful – I highly recommend this restaurant!

05/01/2026: Delicious crepes (the coffee wasn't as good). The people were very friendly. I suppose it was because we went during the Christmas season, but out of the four times we tried to go, it was closed three times, even though Google said it was open.

02/12/2025: We loved this place. The decor is beautiful, and if you're lucky, you can get a seat by one of the windows overlooking the Nive River. The staff were fantastic, very friendly, and always smiling. They have a variety of sweet and savory crepes, as well as drinks and desserts. We went for lunch, so we opted for some savory crepes, which were delicious. We wanted to return in the afternoon for some sweet crepes, but it was already closed (French time). I highly recommend it!

05/01/2026: A typical Basque restaurant with a pleasant setting and stone walls. The staff is very friendly. They serve Basque food; I particularly enjoyed the blood sausage and the pig's trotters—everything was delicious. I love eating local food, and the village is very charming. My only complaint was the apple wine; it's unusual, but you have to try everything to form your own opinion.

13/12/2025: We were delighted to have lunch at a cider house. However, what a disappointment when the staff informed us that the word "cider house" was still displayed on the establishment's sign, but they hadn't been offering the typical cider house menu for several months. The baby squid were undercooked and rubbery, and the one I tasted from my friend's dish had a muddy taste. I asked if the Basque cake was homemade, and they said yes. However, just by looking at the slice on the plate, it was clear we'd been misled! It had been microwaved and topped with caramel. We were very disappointed, especially since it had seemed so promising! The chef is friendly.

19/12/2025: A lovely time spent at Café Luis. Thank you for the wonderful welcome! 🐾🙂

13/09/2025: Very friendly and very welcoming

02/03/2026: Beautiful restaurant with incredible food. There is a full bar and a wine selection that is impressive. The wait staff seated us and provided a menu - we went with the set menu, which included a main and a dessert. I went with the pork loin - served with pepper and onions with a side salad and a family side of fried potatoes. It was very good - the thinly sliced pork melted I to your mouth and we discovered why pork in the area is famous. My wife went with the squid. We decided that she won the ordering game - sauted very fresh calamari and baby squid lightly seasoned with paprika - it was very good. We had decided to share plates when we ordered. She reneged after the first bit. I also recommend the basque cake - excellent flavor of the region - like french pastry with a firm custard center. So good. We also ordered the coffee - I am not European so am concerned that I may be awake for a week due to caffeine content - but good nonetheless. Great visit - highly recommend.

07/11/2025: Restaurant located in the historic center of town, accessible only on foot... Traditional cuisine in a charming, old-fashioned setting with a menu to suit all budgets. Very friendly and professional service. Reservations are recommended to avoid being turned away, even on weekdays, especially during school holidays.
