After a day hanging out on the beach we were excited to have seafood for dinner. We picked Chez…read moreDiego because it looked nice and the staff seemed nice. After setting us down at a table, we ordered food quite fast and the starter arrived within minutes. (Oysters). My friend hadn't even put down her last oyster when they already started taking the plates away. From this moment on, our experience just got worse and worse. The main course arrived straight after and the staff were eyeing our plates and kept walking past our table, waiting for us to be done eating. They handed us the bill before we even finished our drinks. The food was alright but I have NEVER experienced worse service than this. Will not come back.

Highly recommend this place. Great value, great location and wonderful service. My friend loves…read morethis place and enjoyed it a lot. We would recommend this place a lot. They have a "bath" of fresh oysters on premises, a few feet from the seating area. There is also a walking path a few feet away and water on the other end. Great place for spring travel!

We arrived early for our reservation. But if you make an effort to speak some French and be polite,…read moreas we did, they will be totally helpful, so we got seated 15 minutes early at a prime table at the beach's edge. No complaints there. We chose this spot because it did come up again and again as an institution in Arcachon worth a visit. After ordering two glasses of champagne to get started (it was a really nice environment so we felt like living it up a bit), we settled in for the Formule menu. Fish with a orzo and ham was an unlikely combination but the saltiness of the ham was a perfect foil to the mild fish. Our other dishes were equally good, flavors all on point, dessert of a creme brulee perfectly burnt in the moment. With our best efforts at speaking French, our waiter warmed up to us quickly and made friendly chitchat, asking where we were from, how long we were in France for, etc. Charming and warm, this was a quintessential french dining experience as it should have been. No rush, no overbearing waiters, no clearing the tables too early. Food on point and portions just right. The institution lived up to its name, at least for us. I would give it a second chance, definitely.

Great location right on the water- this restaurant actually has two sides- one that serves more…read morecasual fare which is what this review is for and the other side that is more of a brasserie. I stopped in with the rest of the "people watchers" around noon on a Saturday. While the place was busy- it wasn't packed so there were plenty of tables outside to watch the people go by. There are daily specials like steak and frites, a daily fish special, etc, and then plenty of sandwiches and salads. They even have sushi if that's your thing. I ordered a coffee and a salad Nicoise. The salad was huge and it came with some warm bread. They were out of a small bottle of sparking water so the server brought me a large one. While the coffee was good - in typical European style that tiny cup cost 3.40 euros and I needed three to satisfy my caffeine craving. At the end of the day- my coffee ended up costing me as much as my salad! But the service was quite good even though my limited French was tested. But between some good pantomiming on my part, and the few words my server and I could figure out, I ended up with exactly what I wanted to eat. If you drive- know that this area gets very congested. There is a parking lot by the carousel that will cost you 1 euro for a couple of hours but if that lot is full, you are pretty much out of luck. This place seems like the place where many of the locals go. In fact- the reason I found it was a woman who worked at my hotel suggested it for a sandwich and a glass of wine. But local or not- you'll be happy you stopped in and sat a bit to watch the people of Arcachon wander by.
