The beach is very near and the salty air adds a nice zest to almost every Mediterranean meal served here. Of course, the Moulles are the classic and you will not make mistake ordering them. However the fish served here are perfect. The wines are a bit more pricey then in the average seaside restaurant but they offer a good varieties with AOC labels. The servers were very friendly and helpful (having patience with us, foreign tourist breed). The only little disappointment was crème brule - I have eaten better ones, even out of France. Sitting on the street under a little Caribbean-looking umbrella/shed is must, however I peeked inside and the interior was pleasant and inviting too.

I normally don't write reviews but a couple of friends and I had a not so pleasant interaction with…read morewho we assume was the manager. We were enjoying the beach and started to get hungry. In our bathing wear we asked the waitress if we could be seated and she so kindly said yes. A couple minutes later, the manager handled us but this time said we wouldn't be seated because of how we redressed (in gym shorts + shorts in general). Although clearly there were people seated in their bathing wear and shorts just like us. To be clear, one of us are queer presenting. This seems like homophobia due to the inconsistency in reasoning. Whether the manager was intending that or not, it didn't come off as welcoming. To put salt on the wound, the manager came up to us after (while we were talking about our next move) and further explained his reasoning unprompted and rude.
