Ideal spot but horrible staff. I ordered a steak and was told I could only have it rare. Ok but…read morewhen it arrived it was not rare but raw. Things happen but I can't accept the reaction and lack of consideration for clients. Do bother. There are many other place to eat in Aromanches. Bien situé avec un menu correct. Toutefois le service et façon de considérer les clients laisse à desirer. Ce soir j'ai commandé le filet de bœuf Rossini. On m'informe que la cuisson sera saignante et pas autrement. Lorsque la viande arrive bleue et j'informe la serveuse que ce n'est pas ce qui était convenu on me traite avec dédain et on me fait comprendre que ce n'est pas moi qui décide Malheureusement c'est tout ce que déteste du service à la française. Ne perdez pas votre temps ni argent ici il y a bien d'autres choix autour!

While visiting the beaches and memorials along the Normandy coastline, my family stopped by this…read morerestaurant facing Omaha Beach. My family shared a salmon platter, a delicious salad, and two buckets of fresh (and young!) mussels in white wine and cream sauce. Bread was complementary and went well with the mussels and fish. The salmon weas smooth and moist, and perfectly, minimally seasoned so I could really appreciate the seafood. The mussels were sweet with a crunch, which I could tell was very fresh. The chicken salad is very different from ones I have at home, with tomatoes, mushrooms, green beans, bell peppers, lettuce, and other greens. It's definitely a large meal for 4 people but we couldn't stop eating until every platter was cleaned out.

Food options were mainly written on small chalkboards around the restaurant and you'll find cheese & charcuterie, traditional things like galettes, and various other items - similar to a brasserie there were items like lasagna on the menu and it was house made & quite good. There were a couple small tables on the sidewalk and then seating for probably 20 inside. Service was very friendly, though we arrived early so it was just the [presumed] owner and it probably helped that my wife speaks French pretty well. Shortly thereafter a server arrived who spoke English so I wouldn't hesitate to check out this wine bar even if your French isn't perfect. It's definitely a local place, but that's why you travel is to find great little places like this.

The town itself is picturesque and charming for a stroll (with or without some shopping). Seemed to be family run and the prix fixe menu was composed of four delicious options for appetizers, four main course dishes and four desserts. Everything was delicious and freshly cooked to order. We accompanied our meal with a reasonably priced bottle (€8) of Cidre du Normandy. Our tab for our family of four including the cider was €63. A steal given the awesomeness of everything we ate.

Then the main course... oh man. I had the veal, which I never eat veal, bit it was coated in a balsamic reduction, and honey. HONEY. on steak. seriously. The veal was extremely fresh, and totally tender. The honey and the balsamic were a sweet, and surprising delight. It came with fries which were piping hot, and cut thick. For dessert I tried the hazelnut this time, and was not disappointed. 1 extra euro for whipped cream... ;) oh could this be my favorite place in Houlgate? Maybe baby... its totally great, and the service each time has been phenomenal. I sat outside and there were little heaters above my head... it kind of made me feel like I was in a tanning bed, but without them I would have had to move inside to finish my supper. :)
