    We had been eyeballing this place all week and finally stopped in after our meal at La Caravelle…read more We are glad we did. The just serve wine and various special cognacs and such,. Great place for after meal "wine" down. The proprietress was fun and energetic and set us up with some very potent cognacs. You can also but the various wines and such to take home. Give them a try

    La Grande Cave is a winestore where you can enjoy your bottle as it is or togother with light food…read more Selection of wines is small, but good. They have everything from full bodied red wines, whites, rosé and Champagne. You buy the bottle in the store. If you would like to enjoy the bottle at La Grande Cave or just have a glass of the bottle, corkage is €8. The light food is well presented, is of high quality and is very individual depending on the waiter. One dish can be garnished with paprika and strawberries by one and with tomatoes by another. Interesting and authentic! You can also buy wine by the glass. They have red/white/rosé of the day for about €8 with higher quality than neighboring restaurants. The winestore/bar has about 6 small tables in a steep alley located in central Villefranche. During high season there is a calm flow of people strolling by. The environment is beautiful with a glimpse of the harbour. This is a perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine before dinner. Maybe buy a bottle, have a glass of it and finish it with dinner at home or at a restaurant nearby?

    Had a nice lunch here while strolling the promenade. Very hip and happening place and the prices…read moreare semi-reasonable for the area. Cheesy 80s music plays in the background whilst you dine and get optimal people watching and views of the ocean. I had the tempura shrimp and nachos w/guac. The tempura was really good, the "guac" just okay but the chips that it came with were awesome. I also had a frozen strawberry daiquiri, and while the presentation was very nice, the taste was very bland and blah; very little alcohol, I couldn't even taste the strawberry. It was like frozen ice with sugar. I usually don't like frozen drinks and this is why. Lesson learned again. Anyway definitely worth a visit, if only for drinks and a nice view.

    Fantastic Location, But Be Careful at Payment…read more The location is fantastic, with one of the best terraces overlooking the Promenade and the sea. The tapas and drinks were enjoyable, and we had a great evening. Unfortunately, the payment experience left a very bad impression. The card terminal asked me to choose between "Good," "Very Good," and "Exceptional" while the server was standing right next to me. I genuinely believed I was rating the service, but I later realized those options were actually different tip amounts. I found this confusing and misleading. In France, where service is generally included, I wasn't expecting a tipping prompt presented this way. If tips are optional, the terminal should simply say "Would you like to leave a tip?" and clearly show the amounts or percentages. That would be much more transparent. I hope the restaurant considers changing this, because it spoiled what was otherwise a pleasant experience.
