A classic French brasserie, offering rude but efficient and professional service, great quality,…read moretasty and nicely presented food/dishes, in a beautiful older setting (outdoor seating is available). The true classic "old riviera" style as some other reviewers mentioned. It is my favorite local restaurant when I go back to France visiting my mother. The menu changes often. They offer local and seasonal dishes. Some highlights: scallops (in season, meaning pretty much only in September/October) delicious. Very fresh. cooked in butter sauce. Their home-baked bread is excellent. My favorite dish is the "choucroute de la mer" (fish in sauerkraut with cream sauce), usually served during fall/winter. Everything is tasty and properly cooked, you will never go wrong with your selection. I do not eat desserts but ... they have amazing profiteroles (feeds 3. It's a puff biscuit filled up with home made vanila ice cream and melted chocolate on top) that my mom is crazy about. Excellent wine selection. Recommended if you visit Montpellier!

It's called "brasserie" but it is really a restaurant for fine dining. The food is high quality…read more The staff are friendly, helpful, and attentive. The atmosphere is white tablecloths and twinkling dim lights, and the guests ranged from dressed up to casual. They worked with me to find my new favorite local wine.

Beautiful palm tree courtyard surrounded by private dinning rooms and a trendy bar (you'd link you were at a W Hotel). Very good regional cuisine. Did not exactly rape my taste buds with the seasonings but food was prepared from fresh ingredients with a lot of attention to detail. Reasonably priced and attentive service. Enough English spoken to help out with the menu.

Okay so this is my second day in Montpellier, France. And me and some people from my program…read moredecided we'd go out for a night on the town (i.e. get a drink and chill). So as we were walking by la gare, and passed several touristy spots, we ran into a host brother of one of our group. He was from Texas (and if you haven't guessed by now we were all college students). He led us down some of what we thought to be fairly sketchy alleyways and side streets. Until we found "The Egg". Now "The Egg" is a great place to go, even if you speak a very small amount of French. For the owner is Irish, and his bartenders all know how to speak English. This gem, was great. It was away from the touristy, and loud French, and we found a comfortable spot in the corner (although it was fairly crowded it was not overly so) and we sat down and enjoyed a few beers. Although the ladies couldn't find many fruity things to drink, I enjoyed my Chimay beer, served in a Chimay glass and served cold. The Irish owner was really nice and spoke perfect English. The only thing that knocked this down a star was the lack of selection. All in all a good bar to avoid the crowds and the annoying French (while attracting the amusant). Prices: (medium to high range) 4.80 EU- For bottled beer. 3.00 EU- For 1/2 a pint 5.50 EU- For 1 pint.

The atmosphere is comfortable and quiet. The bartender great. The beer is delicious.read more

Still in the South of France. Last night I wanted to go for a drink on the beach and went to "La…read moreOla". Located on the beach, in front of the sea, the scenery is beautiful mostly at night time. What is it ? La Ola is a restaurant on the beach. You can go there in the morning for breakfast. They have a great selection of drinks, but you should not crave for croissants or pastries, they don't have any. How are the people ? People are nice. Their English is not that good but you can make yourself understood anyway. I do not have any acquaintances there yet, I will tell you more about the place in a few days. What about the price ? To be totally honest, I think the price is not up to the quality of the food. It's only beach food ! Anything else to add ? If you want to listen to some cool live music and dance, La Ola is the place to go. If you want to have a drink or two with friends, you can really have a good time there. But I'd advise you not to have food there, that's way too expensive ! "After all, i'd do with a drink" says my best friend. I myself feel like dancing with my feet in the sand tonight, Let's go to La Ola. XD
