Hotel de la Mer

We have been coming here through a succession of owners over the last twenty five years and whilst the food has varied from time to time, it has generally been very good.The son of the present owner is the proprietor and he has very able staff both in the restaurant and the kitchen. The food, which being on the sea front is mainly fish, is well prepared and served well and attractively.There is a choice of menus to suit most tastes and very good daily dishes of fish from the local fishermen.The wines are realistically priced and the first floor dining room has great sea views, as of course do the tables on the promenade. You cannot reserve on the promenade but they will usually find you a seat except on special days. You should always reserve to get a good table with views on the first floor.

Worth paying a little extra for the top menu (only 33 Euros) if you can manage the four courses. Great seafood soup (in an area where the competeion is strong) and the whole sea bass is beautifully grilled and well presented. The first floor restaurant has lovely sea views to complement the food but its a tricky staircase. They will be happy to arrange a table downstairs, or on the terrace outside in better weather.

This is a belated review for a visit in April 2016 but wanted to counter comments about staff. We found them to be helpful but the usual rule applied, do your best to speak in French. It is courteous to do so and you get much better service when you make it clear you are trying! The food was very good and they had organised a lovely window seat for us.

The most important part of this restaurant is the view, but the food is not bad. Most of the choices are seafood, but then when you are overlooking the sea that is what can be expected.If you can sit outside (weather-wise) it's pure heaven, but even in the winter, you can sit in the restaurant's 1st floor and look at the sea.

...but the food quality was average, I have to admit. The fish soup was pureed and rather untasty, the mules et frites were ok, and the ice-cream reasonable. I liked the varieties of beer on offer.
