This place was such a great find! It's highly rated on TripAdvisor and sounded unique so I decided…read moreto stop in. I called ahead to make a reservation, which I would recommend everyone do as seating is very limited and you don't want to miss this! The reason seating is so limited is because the man working there is the owner, waiter, host, and chef. It's just him! Very impressive and definitely enhanced the experience. When you sit down he explains everything on the menu and how he prepares it. I had a red wine that he recommended and it was delicious! For dinner, I had the duck. It's truly as amazing as everyone says! However, the unsung hero is the salad that comes on the side. The dressing is a sort of mustard vinaigrette that I've never tasted before but will definitely be searching for in the future. I also had the chocolate fondant for dessert and the chocolate was so rich I ALMOST ;-) couldn't finish it. Overall, this place was amazing and definitely something you shouldn't miss when visiting Montpellier!

The chef puts so much thought and care into his dishes, which was evident in not only the taste of the food but the way he took the time to describe the process of each dish to us... et en anglais! We started with the chacuterie plate which had an amazing pâté. I ordered the duck- which was so soft and delicate. We were too full for dessert, but wish we had room to eat more. If I ever find myself back in Montpellier, I will definitely be back!

Located in the old area of Montpelier (I think it's a pedestrian only area, not sure), this place…read moreis one of the few restaurant that will cook a small selection of very fresh food. Usually 3 mains to chose from per daily set (along with 3 starters and 3 deserts). they use only fresh ingredients form the market. They cook traditional French food. The food is very delicate, fine, well prepared. The chef is very young but you can tell he knows what he is doing. Staff: very helpful, always willing to describe all dishes and their customization. A big plus for the pork wellington. They serve genuine "pata negra" smoked black pork ham from spain (see photo). Make sure you try it! Outdoor seating. Make sure you book a table or show up super early! A set costs about 28 Euros.

It's generally got a dive-bar, hard-rock sort of sensibility to it. I ordered the "Burger Authentique". Supposedly an American burger. As an American, I would say it was not authentic, but it was tasty, and a very good French attempt at an American Burger. Possibly more healthy, too, given the way the potatoes were prepared and that it came with a modest side salad. The service was friendly, and tolerated my very, very bad French with excellent grace and joie de vivre.
